Visualizing impurity-driven scattering phase textures in EuCd2As2

Using scanning tunneling microscopy, researchers visualize impurity-driven scattering phase textures in EuCd2As2, revealing 2π phase dislocations around Eu interstitials that arise from interference between multiple scattering channels and spin-orbit coupling, thereby establishing a real-space method to study disorder and spin-orbit interactions in quantum materials.
