This perspective article discusses theoretically proposed coincidence detection techniques designed to directly measure two-body correlations in strongly correlated electron systems, highlighting their potential to unravel fundamental puzzles such as unconventional superconductivity and quantum spin liquids while advancing the study of novel quantum phenomena.
This paper explains how the interplay between Zeeman fields and Ising spin-orbit coupling generates stabilizing even-frequency spin-triplet pairs that counteract destabilizing odd-frequency pairs, thereby enabling spin-singlet superconductivity in monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides to persist beyond the Pauli limit and exhibit magnetic field anisotropy.
This paper presents a holistic computational model that simulates radiation-induced correlated errors on superconducting quantum devices to evaluate and optimize the performance of quantum error correction codes and chip design mitigation strategies.
This paper demonstrates that Sn-InAs nanowire transmons exhibit gate-tunable anharmonicity ranging from the charging energy down to values smaller than , a behavior that surpasses the short-junction model's lower limit while maintaining coherent qubit operation.
This paper proposes a general principle for generating dissipationless spin supercurrents in unitary triplet superconductors by utilizing magnetization dynamics in a proximity magnetic nanostructure to convert particle spin into Cooper pair spin, thereby extending conventional spin pumping mechanisms through emergent particle-hole symmetry.
This study investigates re-entrant supercurrents in planar InAs-Al Josephson junctions under high in-plane magnetic fields, demonstrating that while some features align with topological or 0- transitions, they can also be fully explained by disorder-induced mode interference without invoking Zeeman splitting or topology.
This paper reports that the hydration-induced weight changes in La2-xBaxCuO4 and YBa2Cu3O6+delta at room temperature replicate the characteristic dome-shaped Tc(p) dependence and the "1/8 anomaly" typically observed at low temperatures, suggesting a novel room-temperature manifestation of high-temperature superconductor properties.
This paper elucidates the mechanism behind the high transition temperature in sulfur superhydride HS by demonstrating that its valence states are plane-wave-like, leading to a density-of-states peak near the Fermi level through the hybridization of specific plane waves driven by the adjacency of Jones' large zone to the Fermi surface.
This paper demonstrates that altermagnet-superconductor heterostructures host Majorana bound states with a characteristic double-peak spatial profile localized at interfaces due to intrinsic anisotropic hopping, offering a promising route for creating controllable topological qubit networks without external magnetic fields.
Using Ni -edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering, this study reveals fundamental differences in spin excitations between non-superconducting octahedral NdNiO, which exhibits a spin-density-wave ground state with dispersive paramagnons, and its superconducting square-planar counterpart NdNiO, which displays dispersionless magnetic excitations and a distinct elastic peak.
