We report spin-to-charge and charge-to-spin conversion at room temperature in heterostructure devices that interface an archetypal Dirac semimetal, Cd 3As 2, with a metallic ferromagnet,Ni 0.80Fe 0.20 (permalloy). The spin-charge interconversion is

Crystallographic defects can now be routinely imaged at atomic resolution with aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) at high speed, with the potential for vast volumes of data to be acquired in relatively short times, or
For the past two and a half decades, anomalous heating of trapped ions from nearby electrode surfaces has continued to demonstrate unexpected results. Caused by electric-field noise, this heating of the ions' motional modes remains an obstacle for scalable

We report the low temperature magnetic properties of Nd 3+ pyrochlore Nd 2ScNbO 7. Susceptibility and magnetization show an easy-axis moment, and heat capacity reveals a phase transition to long range order at T N = 370 mK with a fully recovered Δ}S = Rln

Quantum transport simulations are rapidly evolving, including the development of well–controlled tensor network techniques for many– body transport calculations. One particularly powerful approach combines matrix product states with extended reservoirs —
The charge-transfer (CT) state arising as a hybrid electronic state at the interface between charge donor and charge acceptor molecular units is important to a wide variety of physical processes in organic semiconductor devices. The exact nature of this

The anomalous Hall, Nernst and thermal Hall coefficients of the itinerant ferromagnet Fe 3−xGeTe 2 display several features upon cooling, like a reversal in the Nernst signal below T = 50 K pointing to a topological transition possibly associated to the
In recent years, MnFePGe magnetocaloric materials have been widely studied as promising candidates for magnetic refrigeration materials. The Curie temperatures of MnFePGe can be adjusted to around room temperature by changing the element ratio or doping

Quantum transport simulations require a level of discretization, often achieved through an explicit representation of the electronic reservoirs. These representations should converge to the same continuum limit, though there is a trade-off between a given

The magnetic ground state and the crystalline electric field level scheme of the triangular lattice antiferromagnet KCeO 2are investigated. Below T N = 300 mK, KCeO 2 develops signatures of magnetic order in specific heat measurements and low energy

Recently, Yb-based triangular lattice antiferromagnets have garnered significant interest as possible quantum spin liquid candidates. One example is YbMgGaO 4, which showed many promising spin liquid features, but also possesses a high degree of disorder

Hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPhPs) enable arbitrarily high confinements, low losses, and directional propagation – providing opportunities from hyperlensing to flat optics, and other advanced nanophotonics applications. In this work, two near-field
In this progress report, we examine recent efforts towards the introduction of magnetic order into topologically nontrivial systems through magnetic proximity effects, with a particular emphasis on the methods of characterizing magnetization induced at the

The Ce3 + pseudospin-1/2 degrees of freedom in the pyrochlore magnet Ce 2Zr 2O 7 are known to possess dipole-octupole (DO) character, making it a candidate for novel quantum spin liquid (QSL) ground states at low temperatures. We report new heat capacity

In semiclassical theory, the effect of quantized Landau levels on the critical magnetic field that destroys superconductivity is usually ignored. However, it has been theorized that the sharply enhanced density of states that occurs in extreme magnetic

The magnetic proximity effect in Pt and W thin films grown on Dy3Fe5O12 (DyIG) is examined at temperatures above and below the magnetic compensation temperature of the ferrimagnetic insulator. Polarized neutron reflectometry indicates that the proximity

High-energy-resolution fluorescence-detected (HERFD) near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure measurements performed at the Pb and W L3 absorption edges has been used to study the pressure dependence of the local atomic structure of PbWO4 from 0 GPa to 22

Temperature-dependent acoustic loss Q^-1 is studied in partially disordered langasite (LGS, La3Ga5SiO14) and ordered catangasite (CTGS, Ca3TaGa3Si2O14) crystals and compared to previously reported CTGS and langatate (LGT, La3Ga5.5Ta0.5O14) data. Two

Time-reversal symmetry breaking (TRSB) in UTe 2 was inferred from observations of a spontaneous Kerr response in the superconducting state after cooling in zero magnetic field, while a finite c-axis magnetic field training was further used to determine the

Emergent relativistic quasiparticles in Weyl semimetals are the source of exotic electronic properties such as surface Fermi arcs, the anomalous Hall effect and negative magnetoresistance, all observed in real materials. Whereas these phenomena highlight
We derive properties of self-assembling rings which can template the organization of an arbitrary colloid into any periodic symmetry in two Euclidean dimensions. By viewing this as a tiling problem, we illustrate how the shape and chemical patterning of

Exotic excitations can emerge in the vicinity of a quantum phase transition. When the quantum critical point of the one-dimensional (1D) transverse field Ising model is perturbed by a longitudinal magnetic field, it was predicted that its massive
