This paper theoretically demonstrates that a square superconducting network decorated with spin-polarized magnetic adatoms can host a bulk-dissociated topological superconducting phase with unique features like nodal lines and co-existing edge and corner modes, achieved through geometric design without the need for spin-orbit coupling.
This paper proposes an ultrafast, all-optical switching and memory platform that exploits a bistable phase transition between a photon superfluid and a supersolid in a driven-dissipative microcavity, where tunable nonlocal interactions engineered by a drifting 2D electron gas enable high-contrast, sub-femtojoule operation with reconfigurable spatial ordering.
This paper theoretically demonstrates that isolated and clustered asymmetric antibimerons in ultrathin ferromagnetic films support topology-constrained collective spin-wave modes that split into N-fold multiplets in clusters, establishing them as a tunable platform for programmable spin-wave nano-oscillators.
This paper demonstrates that the contrast and interpretation of nanoscale nuclear spin dynamics in the spin-noise regime critically depend on the initial phase and orientation of the applied radio-frequency field relative to the NV center's crystalline axis, highlighting the necessity of precise calibration for reliable multidimensional NMR experiments.
This paper utilizes nonequilibrium Green's functions to demonstrate that steady-state phonon heat currents across a coupled harmonic junction obey Fourier's law and exhibit direction-independent thermal conductance that peaks when phonon spectra match, though low-temperature exclusion of high-frequency modes can shift this maximum.
This paper proposes using time-domain electron interferometry in a Hong-Ou-Mandel geometry with a superconducting beam splitter to detect and characterize local and crossed Andreev reflection processes by analyzing distinct changes in current cross-correlation signals compared to normal-conducting setups.
This paper constructs effective Chern-Simons-Ginzburg-Landau theories that successfully describe both Abelian and non-Abelian fractional quantum Hall hierarchies, reproducing known filling fractions while uniquely determining topological orders and revealing a particle-hole symmetry between Read-Rezayi sequences and their conjugates.
This paper introduces and theoretically establishes the intrinsic nonlinear pure spin Hall effect (NPSHE) in 39 magnetic point groups, demonstrating that materials like Kramers-Weyl metals can generate pure spin currents without charge flow to enable energy-efficient spintronic devices.
This paper demonstrates that nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond can serve as local quantum sensors to detect the unique momentum-space anisotropy and spin-polarized bands of altermagnetic insulators, thereby distinguishing them from conventional antiferromagnets through orientation-dependent relaxation measurements.
This paper demonstrates that spatially varying linearly polarized light can dynamically generate and control pseudo-magnetic fields in three-dimensional Weyl semimetals via Floquet engineering, offering a reversible and non-invasive alternative to strain-induced gauge fields with distinct experimental signatures in optical and transport properties.
