Topological Phase Transition and Charge-Spin Coupling in the Kagome Metal YMn 6 Sn 6

March 15, 2022
Author(s)
Peter E. Siegfried, Hari Bhandari, David C. Jones, Madhav P. Ghimire, Rebecca Dally, Lekh Poudel, Markus Bleuel, Jeffrey Lynn, Igor I. Mazin, Nirmal J. Ghimire
The Fermi surface (FS) is essential for understanding the properties of metals. It can change under both conventional symmetry-breaking phase transitions and Lifshitz transitions (LTs), where the FS, but not the crystal symmetry, changes abruptly. Magnetic

Non-magnetic ion site disorder effects on the quantum magnetism of a spin-1/2 equilateral triangular lattice antiferromagnet

March 10, 2022

Qing Huang, R. Rawl, W. W. Xie, E. S. Chou, V. S. Zapf, X. X. Ding, C. Mauws, C. R. Wiebe, E. X. Feng, H. B. Cao, W. Tian, J. Ma, Yiming Qiu, Nicholas Butch, H. D. Zhou
With the motivation to study how non-magnetic ion site disorder affects the quantum magnetism of Ba3CoSb2O9, a spin-1/2 equilateral triangular lattice antiferromagnet, we performed DC and AC susceptibility, specific heat, elastic and inelastic neutron

Spatially-resolved bandgap and dielectric function in two-dimensional materials from Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy

February 15, 2022
Author(s)
Abel Brokkelkamp, Jaco ter Hoeve, Isabel Postmes, Sabrya van Heijst, Luigi Maduro, Albert Davydov, Sergiy Krylyuk, Juan Rojo, Sonia Conesa Boj
The electronic properties of two-dimensional (2D) materials depend sensitively on the underlying atomic arrangement down to the monolayer level. Here we present a novel strategy for the determination of the band gap and complex dielectric function in 2D

Synthesis, crystal structure, and physical properties of BaSnS2

February 11, 2022
Author(s)
Wilarachchige Gunatilleke, Andrew May, Angela R. Hight Walker, Adam Biacchi, George Nolas
Phase-pure BaSnS2, with space group Pn21/c, was synthesized and the structural and physical properties were investigated. The thermal properties and optical measurements are reported for the first time. The Debye temperature and Sommerfeld coefficient were

Thickness-dependent transport properties and photoresponse in MoSe2 field-effect transistors

February 4, 2022
Author(s)
Shiqi Guo, Sergiy Krylyuk, Hsin Y. Lee, Ratan K. Debnath, Albert Davydov, Mona E. Zaghloul
Transition metal dichalcogenides have been studied extensively due to their unique properties in low-dimensional limits. In this work, we have examined the effect of MoSe2 layer thickness on its electrical properties in a field effect transistor (FET)

Operator scaling dimensions and multifractality at measurement-induced transitions

February 3, 2022
Author(s)
Michael Gullans, Zabalo Aidan, Justin Wilson, Romain Vasseur, Andreas Ludwig, Sarang Gopalakrishnan Gopalakrishnan, David Huse, Jed Pixley
Repeated local measurements of quantum many body systems can induce a phase transition in their entanglement structure. These measurement-induced phase transitions (MIPTs) have been studied for various types of dynamics, yet most cases yield quantitatively

Magnetic structure of magnetoelectric multiferroic HoFeWO6

February 1, 2022
Author(s)
C. Dhital, Rebecca Dally, D. Pham, T. Keen, Qiang Zhang, P. Siwakoti, R. Nepal, R. Jin, R. Rai
The polar magnetic oxide, HoFeWO6, is synthesized, and its crystal structure, magnetic structure, and thermodynamic properties are investigated. HoFeWO6 forms the polar crystal structure (space group Pna21 (#33)) due to the cation ordering of W6+ and Fe3+

Core-hole potentials and related effects

January 12, 2022
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, Lars G. Pettersson, D. Prendergast
We consider the constrained-occupancy and (linear-response) self-consistent-field methods for screening of core-hole potentials that affect core excitation near-edge spectra. The methods are not exact, but each has distinct advantages and limitations. The

Magnetotransport and magnetic textures in Ho/FeCoGd/b-W multilayers

January 12, 2022
Author(s)
Ramesh Budhani, Vinay Sharma, Ezana Negusse, Jacob Casey, Arjun Pathak, Jerzy Sadowski, Brian Kirby
The enhancement of interfacial Dzyaloshinskii – Moriya Interaction (DMI) in magnetic multilayers results in the stabilization of topological spin textures like chiral domain walls and skyrmions. Here we report on the evaluation of interface-driven magnetic

Noble-metal dark-edge fermiology: core-hole memory and the "Zeeman Auger" effect

January 12, 2022
Author(s)
Eric L. Shirley, Joseph Woicik, Conan Weiland, Ahmed Rumaiz, Charles Cardot, Joshua Kas, John Rehr
Gold and platinum have the face-centered-cubic crystal structure, are considered noble metals, and differ by one in atomic number. Near-edge M4,5 x-ray absorption and resonant M4,5N6,7N6,7 Auger spectroscopy reveal "dark" edges and a photon-energy

Global perspectives of the bulk electronic structure of URu2Si2 from angle-resolved photoemission

January 11, 2022
Author(s)
Jonathan Denlinger, J.-S. Kang, L. Dudy, J. Allen, Kyoo Kim, J.-H. Shim, Kristjan Haule, J. Sarrao, Nicholas Butch, M. Maple
Previous high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) studies of URu 2Si 2 have characterized the temperature-dependent behavior of narrow-band states close to the Fermi level (E F) at low photon energies near the zone center, with an emphasis on

Geometric interference in a high-mobility graphene annulus p-n junction device

January 10, 2022
Author(s)
Son Le, Albert Rigosi, Joseph Hagmann, Christopher Gutierrez, Ji Ung Lee, Curt A. Richter
The emergence of interference is observed in the resistance of a graphene annulus pn junction device as a result of applying two separate gate voltages. The observed resistance patterns are carefully inspected, and it is determined that the position of the

Large Change of Interlayer Vibrational Coupling with Stacking in Mo 1-x W x Te 2

January 7, 2022
Author(s)
John A. Schneeloch, Yu Tao, Jaime Fernandez-Baca, Guangyong Xu, Despina Louca
Stacking variations in quasi-two-dimensional materials can have an important influence on material properties, such as changing the topology of the band structure. Unfortunately, the weakness of van der Waals interactions makes it difficult to compute the
