Below are the latest papers in condensed matter and materials science, organized by their most recent publication dates.
The researchers demonstrate the first diamagnetic Tesla engine by using a laterally displaced, magnetically levitated graphene disk that converts light energy into rotational motion through temperature-induced changes in diamagnetic force.
This study demonstrates that Ni²⁺/Pr³⁺ co-doping enhances the structural stability, reduces defect concentrations, and improves the optoelectronic and carrier transport properties of CsPbCl₃ perovskite through first-principles calculations.
This paper introduces a model-assisted, discrete-time resonance tracking method that maintains a system at its instantaneous resonance frequency through phase-relation monitoring, enabling faster and more stable Nonlinear Resonant Ultrasound Spectroscopy (NRUS) measurements by avoiding full frequency sweeps.
This study utilizes scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) to investigate the nanoscale terahertz conductivity of encapsulated monolayer graphene, demonstrating that magnetic fields can tune the cyclotron resonance of Dirac fermions near the charge neutrality point.
This paper develops an extended spin-current model for electric polarization that incorporates an anisotropic tensor gyromagnetic ratio, identifying three distinct magnetoelectric mechanisms and predicting new polarization solutions in cycloidal and helicoidal spin structures.
This paper proposes a new framework for integrating life cycle thinking into the earliest stages of inorganic solid materials design, shifting the focus from retrospective environmental assessment to proactive, anticipatory, and responsible material innovation.
This paper demonstrates that optimizing site-dependent dephasing profiles can enhance steady-state quantum transport in one-dimensional lattices by overcoming localization and energy detuning more effectively than spatially uniform noise.
The paper proposes a symmetry-based framework using a multipole basis to decompose force-constant matrices, demonstrating that ferroaxial order in zigzag-chain models induces hidden sublattice-resolved chiral phonons.
This paper numerically demonstrates that a two-dimensional non-Hermitian photonic crystal made of lossy magneto-optical materials exhibits both non-Hermitian topological edge states and a corner skin effect protected by complex eigenfrequency point gaps.
This paper theoretically demonstrates that optical phonons in graphene significantly suppress high harmonic generation (HHG) yields and drive electronic decoherence through phase scrambling and interband current coupling, providing a key explanation for the observed limitations in experimental HHG spectra.
