This paper demonstrates that the Chebyshev expansion method can be effectively extended to non-Hermitian systems with unbounded spectra by identifying numerical rounding errors as the primary limitation and providing an analytic error bound to guide the selection of spectral radius and time steps for accurate simulations, as illustrated by the Hatano-Nelson model.
This paper resolves conflicting experimental results on spontaneous Raman scattering under vibrational strong coupling by demonstrating that the observed Raman response is governed by spatial mode overlap, which suppresses polaritonic peaks in homogeneously filled cavities but allows them in quasi-two-dimensional molecular layers.
This paper resolves the Marcus-Rehm-Weller paradox by demonstrating that the contrasting predictions of rate decrease versus saturation in electron transfer arise as distinct physical limits (nonadiabatic versus adiabatic) of a single two-state quantum Hamiltonian, allowing for the quantitative reproduction of experimental data without phenomenological corrections.
This paper demonstrates a gate-tunable "harmonic parity qubit" that combines aluminum-oxide junctions with an InAs/Al nanowire to suppress odd Josephson harmonics and achieve controlled even-parity Cooper pair tunneling, enabling a double-well potential for advanced Fourier engineering in superconducting circuits.
This paper reports systematic resistance measurements in rhombohedral pentalayer graphene/hBN moiré superlattices that reveal displacement field-driven quantum phase transitions between various electronic states, characterized by semi-circle relations in resistivity and the discovery of a new fractional quantized anomalous Hall insulator phase.
This theoretical study demonstrates that in Marcus molecular junctions, Coulomb interactions between electrons can counterbalance the effects of thermalized phonon-induced reorganization, leading to significant qualitative changes in zero-bias conductance, Seebeck coefficient, and power factor.
This paper establishes a general framework for identifying twist and strain configurations in moiré heterostructures by analyzing moiré images, demonstrating that while wavelength data alone yields multiple possibilities, incorporating constraints like minimum elastic energy and electronic spectra allows for the determination of the most likely physical configuration.
This paper reviews Stiefel-Whitney invariants and introduces a discrete formulation of a new invariant for two-dimensional spinful insulators with twofold rotation and time-reversal symmetries, demonstrating its mathematical consistency and showing that it, alongside existing invariants, completes the stable classification .
This paper demonstrates a contact-free, post-growth method for spectrally tuning InAs quantum dots embedded in InP nanowires by utilizing the photo-induced strain relaxation of an amorphous Sb2S3 shell, thereby enabling the creation of wavelength-matched emitters essential for scalable quantum-photonic technologies.
This paper demonstrates that epitaxial growth of hcp Co with its c-axis in the film plane enables reconfigurable, field-free spin Hall nano-oscillators operating above 10 GHz by utilizing crystallographic anisotropy to replace the need for an external magnetic bias.
