Optical signatures of Rashba--Dresselhaus coupling across Franz--Keldysh and Landau regimes in two-dimensional semiconductors

This paper presents a unified theoretical framework for the interband optical response of two-dimensional semiconductors with simultaneous Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit couplings, revealing how electric and magnetic fields distinctively modify joint density of states, Landau levels, and Franz-Keldysh oscillations to enable the optical identification and characterization of these spin-orbit interactions.

Scale-free localization in pseudo-Hermitian quantum walk

This paper demonstrates that a single non-Hermitian defect in one- and two-dimensional quantum walks induces scale-free localization, a phenomenon intrinsically linked to pseudo-Hermitian phase transitions and the emergence of bound states.

Broadband emitter localization and prefabrication two-photon interference from InAs/InP quantum dots monolithically grown on an InGaAsP/InP distributed Bragg reflector

This paper demonstrates a monolithic telecom C-band single-photon platform using low-density InAs/InP quantum dots on an InGaAsP/InP distributed Bragg reflector, which achieves enhanced light extraction for precise emitter localization and enables high-purity single-photon emission with significant two-photon interference visibility without the need for cavity-based Purcell enhancement.

Ferroelastic Reversal Magnon Thermal Hall Effect in a Fully Compensated Ferrimagnet

This paper proposes and theoretically validates ferroelastic switching as a nonvolatile mechanism to reverse the magnon thermal Hall effect in fully compensated ferrimagnets by reconstructing lattice anisotropy and magnon band chirality, with monolayer V2SSe identified as a promising material candidate for realizing this multichannel control.

Chiral Cavity Vacua as Local Generators and Probes of Non-Abelian Kitaev Topology

This paper demonstrates that a gyrotropic cavity vacuum can generate, probe, and spatially program non-Abelian topology in the Kitaev honeycomb model by producing a universal helicity-odd interaction that acts as the Kitaev three-spin mass, enabling the creation of topological islands and helicity walls with distinct bulk and local criteria.

Orientation-selective microwave heating of laser-graphitized diamond at 2.45 GHz

This paper demonstrates that femtosecond-laser inscription of a buried graphitic architecture within a transparent HPHT diamond crystal enables strong, orientation-selective microwave absorption at 2.45 GHz, allowing for controlled heating up to ~900°C based on the alignment of the inscribed structure relative to the electric field.

Nonlinear and Chaotic Dynamics of Two Dipolar-Coupled Anisotropic Spins under Periodic Excitation

This paper numerically investigates the nonlinear and chaotic dynamics of two dipolar-coupled anisotropic macrospins under periodic transverse excitation, utilizing a comprehensive suite of analytical and numerical tools to characterize how coupling, anisotropy, and driving amplitude govern complex dynamical regimes, including hyperchaos, while clarifying the limitations of linearized descriptions.

Einstein's theory of Brownian motion: The non-Fickian normal diffusion

This paper argues that Einstein's original theory of Brownian motion inherently contains the foundation for "normal" non-Fickian diffusion, demonstrating that space-dependent diffusivity can drive concentration inhomogeneities while still adhering to the principles of normal diffusion.

Kinetic-inductance Parametric Amplification in Superconducting Hybrid Magnonics

This paper demonstrates that coupling a nonlinear NbN nanowire resonator to a yttrium iron garnet sphere creates a hybrid magnonic system capable of tunable kinetic-inductance parametric amplification, where magnon-photon coupling allows for magnetic control of the amplification frequency and gain while enabling complex nonlinear dynamics at higher pump powers.

Transition-Metal Chalcogenide Nanowires: A First-Principles Study of Stability, Electronic Structure, and Mechanical Response

This study employs density functional theory and machine-learning force-field molecular dynamics to demonstrate that subnanometer transition-metal chalcogenide nanowires (MoS, MoSe, MoTe, WS, WSe, and WTe) are dynamically stable at finite temperatures and exhibit tunable electronic and mechanical properties, ranging from metallic to semiconducting behavior and high Young's moduli, which can be further modulated by chemical composition and mechanical deformation.
