This paper proposes a protocol using layer-resolved or spin-resolved transport measurements, specifically shot noise and electric current, to determine the fractional statistics of both charged and neutral anyons in multi-component topological systems where conventional charge measurements are insufficient.
This paper establishes a rigorous microscopic formalism for transverse thermophotovoltaics in two-dimensional metals, demonstrating that nonreciprocal surface plasmon polaritons driven by near-field thermal radiation generate a transverse electric current through a plasmon-drag mechanism.
This paper demonstrates that linearly polarized light can drive spin-selective topological phase transitions and induce distinctive, angle-dependent anomalous thermal transport in d-wave altermagnets, establishing a pathway for all-optical control of caloritronic responses.
This paper introduces and experimentally demonstrates a general design principle for scalable multi-band topological states in hierarchical honeycomb lattices, where robust fundamental modes are replicated across multiple frequency bands to enable simultaneous, cross-talk-free wave propagation in a single waveguide.
This paper presents a universal framework utilizing distinct field-reversal symmetries and angular dependencies, implemented via a 12-terminal Hall bar on the ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal Fe3Sn, to disentangle and separate overlapping contributions to in-plane Hall responses for clearer interpretation of topological and magnetic phenomena.
This paper predicts and demonstrates an intrinsic, scattering-time-independent magnetoelectric Hall effect in layered nonmagnetic materials, which arises from a mixed layer-orbital quantum geometry and is bilinear in electric and magnetic fields, with rhombohedral pentalayer graphene serving as a key realization.
This paper experimentally demonstrates an acoustic quantum skyrmion-valley Hall effect in a phononic crystal, where engineered spin-orbit-momentum interactions generate robust, controllable skyrmion edge states that exhibit concurrent orbital angular momentum-valley and spin-texture locking.
This paper proposes that gated superconducting altermagnet heterostructures can achieve perfect, electrically tunable nonreciprocal spin and charge currents by using a gated normal region to selectively filter transverse momentum channels, thereby enabling a new route for nonreciprocal superconducting spintronic devices.
This paper reports the discovery of a fundamentally new third-order Hall effect in the room-temperature ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2, which arises from second-order Berry connection polarizability and provides a novel experimental probe for symplectic connection, a higher-order quantum geometric property.
This paper develops a density-matrix-based theory of solid-state high-harmonic generation to demonstrate that band topology directly governs the quantum statistics and squeezing of emitted light, enabling topology-sensitive quantum light generation without relying on traditional Kerr mechanisms.
