This paper reveals that topological phase transitions in superconducting quasicrystals exhibit a fractal structure known as "Majorana's Butterfly," where the stability of Majorana Bound States is governed by a hierarchical competition between quasicrystalline order and superconducting pairing.
This paper demonstrates that Majorana bound states in a topological superconductor coupled to a photonic cavity persist at finite, tunable energies with enhanced stability and disorder resilience, while introducing a modified spectral localizer formalism to characterize these cavity-induced topological features across different photon sectors.
This paper theoretically investigates the enhanced fluctuations of the dynamically stabilized inverted magnetic state driven by spin current shot noise, demonstrating how these unique signatures can be detected via qubits to advance fundamental understanding and applications in spintronics and magnonics.
This paper investigates the synaptic convergence of three diffusive memristor-based spiking neurons through numerical modeling and experiments to identify voltage combinations for targeted activation and analyze spiking statistics, thereby advancing the development of universal functional blocks for neuromorphic computing.
This paper proposes and theoretically analyzes a novel magnonic waveguide design in a CoFeB layer that utilizes surface anisotropy-induced Bragg mirrors to effectively confine and guide high-frequency, high-velocity spin waves while overcoming limitations associated with non-uniform demagnetizing fields.
This study provides experimental evidence for coexisting topological hinge states and 1D Rashba states in BiSb nanoflakes through Josephson effect measurements, identifying the material as a prototypical second-order topological insulator platform.
This study reveals that in the prototypical altermagnet -MnTe, spin-orbit coupling induces a weak ferromagnetic state dominated by a robust net orbital magnetization that significantly outweighs the spin contribution and remains stable against carrier density variations, highlighting the critical role of orbital effects in altermagnetic phenomena.
This paper proposes a twist-angle-insensitive design principle for realizing ideal topological flat bands with perfect quantum geometry in two-dimensional moiré heterostructures with type-II band alignment, where the band flatness and geometry can be experimentally tuned via external gate voltages controlling the energy gap between localized and conducting orbitals.
This study utilizes spatially and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to directly map the electronic band structure of twisted bilayer MoTe2, revealing a direct band gap with a valence band maximum at the K points that underpins the fractional quantum anomalous Hall effect.
This paper demonstrates the bottom-up creation of atomically sharp, one-dimensional dipolar excitonic quantum wires at lateral interfaces, characterized by discrete quantum states, large permanent dipole moments, and the ability to dynamically tune their internal structure and radiative properties via electrostatic doping.
