Constructing quantum many-body scar Hamiltonians from Floquet automata

November 22, 2022
Author(s)
Michael Gullans, Pierre-Gabriel Rozon, Kartiek Agarwal
We provide a systematic approach for constructing approximate quantum many-body scars (QMBS) starting from two-layer Floquet automaton circuits that exhibit trivial many-body re- vivals. We do so by applying successively more restrictions that force local

Nonlinear excitations in ferrites

November 22, 2022
Author(s)
Pavel Kabos
This book chapter describes the processes leading to nonlinear excitations in ferrites at high power levels. We start from equation of motion that include nonlinear terms leading to nonlinear processes. First and second order Suhl instabilities for

Phase-transition-induced Thermal Hysteresis in Type-II Weyl Semimetals MoTe2 and Mo(1-x)W(x)Te2

November 19, 2022
Author(s)
Md Sabbir Akhanda, Sergiy Krylyuk, Diane Dickie, Albert Davydov, Fei Han, Mingda Li, Mona Zebarjadi
The resistivity versus temperature measurement is commonly used for identifying temperature-induced phase change and the resulting hysteresis loop. While the resistance is influenced by both the density of states and the carrier lifetimes, the Seebeck

Frustrated Magnetic Interactions and Quenched Spin Fluctuations in CrAs

Yayuan Qin, Yao Shen, Yiqing Hao, Hongliang Wo, Shoudong Shen, Russell A. Ewings, Yang Zhao, Leland Harriger, Jeffrey Lynn, Jun Zhao
The discovery of pressure-induced superconductivity in helimagnets (CrAs, MnP) has attracted significant interest in understanding the relationship between complex magnetism and unconventional superconductivity. However, the nature of the magnetism and

Heterojunction tunnel triodes based on two-dimensional metal selenide and three-dimensional silicon

Jinshui Miao, Chloe Leblanc, Jinjin Wang, Yue Gu, Xiwen Liu, Baokun Song, Huairuo Zhang, Sergiy Krylyuk, Weida Hu, Albert Davydov, Tyson Back, Nicholas Glavin, Deep Jariwala
Low power consumption in the static and dynamic modes of operation is a key requirement in the development of modern electronics. Tunnel field-effect transistors with direct band-to-band charge tunnelling and steep-subthreshold-slope transfer

Unravelled and Glassy Magnetism in PbFe 1/2 Nb 1/2 O 3 - (2) Neutron Scattering

C. Stock, B. Roessli, Peter M. Gehring, Jose Rodriguez Rivera, N. Giles-Donovan, S. Cochran, Guangyong Xu, P. Manuel, M. J. Gutmann, William D. Ratcliff, T. Fennell, Y. Su, X. Li, H. Luo
We apply neutron scattering to investigate the magnetism in the relaxor ferroelectric PbFe 1/2Nb 1/2O 3 (PFN). Similar to the lack of spatially long-range ferroelectric order in prototypical relaxors like Pb(Mg,Zn) 1/3Nb 2/3O 3 (PMN and PZN), spatially

Derivable genetic programming for two-dimensional colloidal materials

Author(s)
Nathan Mahynski, Bliss Han, Daniel Markiewitz, Vincent K. Shen
We describe a method for deriving surface functionalization patterns for colloidal systems that can induce self-assembly into any chosen periodic symmetry at a planar interface. The result is a sequence of letters, s ∈ A,T,C,G}, or a gene, that describes

Near-edge x-ray absorption and emission of cyanates and thiocyanates

The comparability and reliability of the analysis of the electronic structure of selected cyanates and thio- cyanates at the nitrogen K edge based on BSE calculations have been investigated in this work. Using high-resolution x-ray spectroscopy with

Visualizing Localized, Radiative Defects in GaAs Solar Cells

Behrang Hamadani, Margaret Stevens, Brianna Conrad, Matthew Lumb, Kenneth Schmieder
We have used a calibrated, wide-field hyperspectral imaging instrument to obtain absolute spectrally and spatially resolved photoluminescence images in high growth-rate, rear-junction GaAs solar cells from 300 K to 77 K. At the site of some localized

c-axis Transport in UTe2: Evidence of Three-Dimensional Conductivity Component

We study the temperature dependence of electrical resistivity for currents directed along all crystallographic axes of the spin-triplet superconductor UTe 2. We focus particularly on an accurate determination of the resistivity along the c-axis (ρ c) by

The advent of X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs) has revolutionized fundamental science, from atomic to condensed matter physics, from chemistry to biology, giving researchers access to X-rays with unprecedented brightness, coherence, and pulse duration

Connecting entropy scaling and density scaling

August 17, 2022
Author(s)
Ian Bell, Robin Fingerhut, Jadran Vrabec, Lorenzo Costigliola
It is shown that the residual entropy (entropy minus that of the ideal gas at the same temperature and density) is mostly synonymous with the independent variable of density scaling, identifying a direct link between these two approaches. The residual

Ba 3Yb 2Zn 5O 11 is unique among breathing pyrochlore compounds for being in the nearly-decoupled limit where inter-tetrahedra interactions are weak, hosting isolated clusters or molecular magnet like tetrahedra of magnetic ytterbium (Ybu3+^) ions. In this

Transport Properties of Few-Layer NbSe2: from Electronic Structure to Thermoelectric Properties

4-layer NbSe2 is grown on SiO2 by molecular beam epitaxy. The in-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements suggest a Nb-rich stoichiometry (Nb1+xSe2) likely due to intercalation of Nb atoms in between the NbSe2 layers. The metallic nature of

The intense interest in triplet superconductivity partly stems from theoretical predictions of exotic excitations such as non-abelian Majorana modes, chiral supercurrents, and half-quantum vortices. However, fundamentally new, and unexpected states may
