Quantum Versus Classical Spin Fragmentation in Dipolar Kagome Ice Ho 3 Mg 2 Sb 3 O 14

September 29, 2020

Zhiling Dun, Xiaojian Bai, Jospeh A. Paddison, Emily Hollingworth, Nicholas Butch, Clarina D. Cruz, Matthew Stone, Tao Hong, Franz Demmel, Martin Mourigal, Haidong Zhou
A promising route to realize entangled magnetic states combines geometrical frustration with quantum-tunneling effects. Spin-ice materials are canonical examples of frustration, and Ising spins in a transverse magnetic field are the simplest many-body

Trilayer nickelates, which exhibit a high degree of orbital polarization combined with an electron (d 8.67) corresponding to overdoped cuprates, have been recognized as promising candidates for achieving high-T c superconductivity. One such material, La

Interaction-driven quantum Hall wedding cake-like structures in graphene quantum dots

Christopher Gutierrez, Daniel T. Walkup, Fereshte Ghahari Kermani, Cyprian Lewandowski, Joaquin R. Nieva, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Leonid Levitov, Nikolai Zhitenev, Joseph A. Stroscio
Interactions amongst relativistic particles underpin exotic behaviours in diverse systems ranging from quark-gluon plasmas to Dirac electron fluids in solids. Despite long-standing interest, direct observation of quantum-relativistic matter under ambient

85 Rb BEC Near a Feshbach Resonance

Author(s)
N R. Claussen, S L. Cornish, J L. Roberts, Eric A. Cornell, C E. Wieman
Bose-Einstein condensation has been achieved in a magnetically trapped sample of 85Rb atoms. Stable condensates of up to 10 4 atoms have been created by using a magnetic-field-induced Feshbach resnance to reverse the sign of the zero-field scattering

Structural Study of Ba 11 Fe 8 Ti 9 O 41 by X-Ray Diffraction

September 1, 2000

T Siegrist, C Svensson, Terrell A. Vanderah, Robert S. Roth
The crystal structure of Ba 11Fe 8Ti 9O 41 was determined using single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction nethods. This new phase crystallizes in the hexagonal space group P6 3/mmc (No 194) (a=5.7506(3) , c=61.413(2) ; Z=2; Pcalc=5.75 g/cm 3) and

Note: A Bitter-type electromagnet for complex atomic trapping and manipulation

Jacob L. Siegel, Daniel Barker, James A. Fedchak, Julia Scherschligt, Stephen Eckel
We create a pair of symmetric Bitter-type electromagnet assemblies capable of producing multiple field configurations including uniform magnetic fields, spherical quadruple traps, or Ioffe-Pritchard magnetic bottles. Unlike other designs, our coil allows

Investigation of Feshbach Resonances in ultra-cold 40K spin mixtures

Eite Tiesinga, J Krauser, J Heinze, S Gotze, M Lanbecker, N Flashner, L Cook, T Hanna, K Sengstock, C Becker
Magnetically-tunable Feshbach resonances are an indispensable tool for experiments with atomic quantum gases. We report on twenty thus far unpublishedi Feshbach resonances and eleven further probable Feshbach resonances in spin mixtures of ultracold

Identification of the Low-Energy Excitations in a Quantum Critical System

Author(s)
Tom Heitmann, Jagat Lamsal, Shannon M. Watson, Ross Erwin, Wangchun Chen, Yang Zhao, Wouter Montfrooij
We have identified low-energy magnetic excitations in a doped quantum critical system by means of polarized neutron scattering experiments. The presence of these excitations could explain why Cd(Fe 0.76Ru 0.24) 2Ge 2 displays dynamical scaling in the

Neutron Inelastic Scattering Measurements of Low-Energy Phonons in the Multiferroic BiFeO 3

We are continuing the development of a new primary standard for ac-dc difference that utilizes a superconducting resistive transition-edge device as the sensor. The most recent improvements to the Cryogenic Thermal Transfer Standard (CTTS) include on-chip

Crystallographic Texture in Ceramics and Metals

December 1, 2001

We realized a quantum "charge" pump for a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in a novel bipartite magnetic lattice, whose bands are characterized by non-trivial topological invariants: the Zak phases. For each band, the Zak phase is determined by that band's

Ratcliff, Ramamoorthy Ramesh, Craig J. Fennie, Peter Schiffer, David A. Muller, Darrell G. Schlom
The defining feature of ferroics is the ability of an external stimulus - electric field, magnetic field, or stress-to move domain walls. These topological defects and their motion enables many useful attributes, e.g., memories that can be reversibly
