Symmetries, length scales, magnetic response, and skyrmion chains in nematic superconductors

Martin Speight, Thomas Winyard, and Egor Babaev

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195204 (2023) - Published 30 May, 2023

The structure of vortex lattices for unconventional superconductors is mostly unknown and a mathematically challenging problem. The authors propose a general method to find vortex lattices for any superconducting system. They focus on the example of nematic superconductors, demonstrating that in an external magnetic field such superconductors form chains of fractional vortices. Their approach, by describing the geometry of the unit cell, directly maps to the signal such lattices exhibit in muon spin rotation experiments, producing a powerful tool to study the superconducting order parameter.

Quantum thermodynamics with fast driving and strong coupling via the mesoscopic leads approach

Artur M. Lacerda, Archak Purkayastha, Michael Kewming, Gabriel T. Landi, and John Goold

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195117 (2023) - Published 10 May, 2023

In the mesoscopic leads technique, continuum environments at finite temperature are modeled via a finite-set modes, which are in turn damped by Markovian dissipation. Here, the authors extended this approach to include arbitrary time dependence in the Hamiltonian of the central system and performed detailed assessment of the thermodynamic quantities. They illustrated their approach by applying the technique to the driven resonant level model and to a driven double dot system, which is a noninteracting system exhibiting rectification.

Fractonic Luttinger liquids and supersolids in a constrained Bose-Hubbard model

Philip Zechmann, Ehud Altman, Michael Knap, and Johannes Feldmeier

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195131 (2023) - Published 16 May, 2023

Dynamical constraints have drastic consequences for the properties of many-particle quantum systems. Here, the authors study the quantum ground state phases in a fracton system of interacting bosons with dipole conservation. Through a combination of low-energy field theory and tensor network simulations, they identify a novel dipole Luttinger liquid phase as well as a fracton analogue of a supersolid state.

Dipole condensates in tilted Bose-Hubbard chains

Ethan Lake, Hyun-Yong Lee, Jung Hoon Han, and T. Senthil

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195132 (2023) - Published 16 May, 2023

The authors study a Bose-Hubbard model whose dynamics conserves the total center of mass, a situation which arises in strongly tilted optical lattices. Center of mass conservation is shown to dramatically alter the nature of the quantum phase diagram, which hosts several types of unusual gapless phases. These results hint at a wealth of interesting phenomena waiting to be uncovered in the physics of kinetically constrained many-body systems.

Fermi-Dirac staircase occupation of Floquet bands and current rectification inside the optical gap of metals: An exact approach

Oles Matsyshyn, Justin C. W. Song, Inti Sodemann Villadiego, and Li-kun Shi

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195135 (2023) - Published 18 May, 2023

This work demonstrates exactly that, when coupled to an ideal fermionic bath, the occupation of a driven Floquet band deviates from the Fermi-Dirac distribution function of the Floquet energy, and instead becomes a staircase version of this distribution. This allows us to show the existence of a finite rectified electric current within the optical gap of a metal, even in the limit of vanishing carrier relaxation rates.

Calorimetric measurement of nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate in metals

A. Khansili, A. Bangura, R. D. McDonald, B. J. Ramshaw, A. Rydh, and A. Shekhter

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195145 (2023) - Published 23 May, 2023

Rabi, in atomic beams, and, later, Purcell, in solids, led the way in using nuclear spins as a probe of orbital and spin dynamics of electrons. These studies use radio frequency pulses to disturb the nuclear spins from their equilibrium with electrons and then monitor their relaxation. This paper expands the range of materials where electron dynamics can be accessed via their interaction with nuclear spins – this time, using ultrafast nanocalorimeters instead of radio frequency spectrometers.

Electronic density of states of a U(1) quantum spin liquid with spinon Fermi surface. I. Orbital magnetic field effects

Wen-Yu He and Patrick A. Lee

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195155 (2023) - Published 31 May, 2023

The authors study the orbital magnetic field induced Landau quantization of a quantum spin liquid with spinon Fermi surface. In the electronic density of states of the quantum spin liquid, the Landau quantization is found to induce a set of band-edge steps, band-edge resonance peaks, or in-gap bound states when the gauge-field fluctuations are negligible, weak, or strong, respectively. The results indicate that the Landau quantization of the spinon Fermi surface can be detected through scanning tunneling microscope measurements.

Electronic density of states of a U(1) quantum spin liquid with spinon Fermi surface. II. Zeeman magnetic field effects

Wen-Yu He and Patrick A. Lee

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195156 (2023) - Published 31 May, 2023

This work studies the Zeeman magnetic field effect on a quantum spin liquid with a spinon Fermi surface. In the absence of gauge binding, the quantum spin liquid electronic density of states exhibits no Zeeman shift in the threshold energy. As the gauge binding increases, the band edge resonance peaks exhibit a reduced Zeeman shift and eventually have the Zeeman shift direction reversed for a sufficiently large gauge binding. The authors further suggest to use such anomalous Zeeman response to identify the gapless quantum spin liquid phase.

Investigating the fast spectral diffusion of a quantum emitter in hBN using resonant excitation and photon correlations

Clarisse Fournier, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Julien Barjon, Stéphanie Buil, Jean-Pierre Hermier, and Aymeric Delteil

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195304 (2023) - Published 25 May, 2023

Single-photon emitters in the solid state are subject to spectral broadening processes known as spectral diffusion and pure dephasing. Here, the authors show that a combination of quantum optics techniques, namely coherent laser drive and time-resolved photon correlations, can bring both processes to light in a single experimental protocol. This allows an extensive characterization of a large variety of solid-state quantum emitters. Their method is experimentally applied to a quantum emitter in the 2D material hexagonal boron nitride, further establishing this system as an appealing quantum photonics platform.

Rest-frame quasistatic theory for rotating electromagnetic systems and circuits

Ben Z. Steinberg and Nader Engheta

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195418 (2023) - Published 10 May, 2023

The omnipresence of rotation, often observed in its own rest frame of reference, profoundly affects human experience, science and technology. Here, the authors develop a formulation governing the rest frame electrodynamics in rotating electromagnetic systems and circuits. This study reveals new rotation-induced effects such as fictitious charges, gain, energy harvesting, and new device functionalities, e.g., positive or negative memristors and their dualities. These effects may potentially offer pathways to new technologies and materials.

Twist-angle dependent proximity induced spin-orbit coupling in graphene/topological insulator heterostructures

Thomas Naimer and Jaroslav Fabian

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195144 (2023) - Published 23 May, 2023

The authors investigate the proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling in twisted graphene/topological insulator (Bi2Se3 and Bi2Te3) heterostructures from first principles. Fitting the band structures around the graphene Dirac cone to an established spin-orbit Hamiltonian yields the twist angle dependencies of the spin-orbit couplings. Amongst other findings, an interesting form of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling arises for such structures. It entails a large radial component of the in-plane spin structure around the Dirac cone, which can be used to realize collinear charge-to-spin conversion.

The authors study the continuum limit of two-dimensional chiral magnets in which the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) is due to the interplay between a smooth magnetic texture and spin-orbit coupling. They investigate corrections to the DMI free energy, in a gradient expansion, and also in the limits of small Rashba spin-orbit coupling or small exchange coupling, revealing non-Lifshitz invariants in higher-order terms. These contributions are significant for filling near the conduction band bottom at strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling and can stabilize nontrivial spin structures.

The omnipresence of rotation, often observed in its own rest frame of reference, profoundly affects human experience, science and technology. Here, the authors develop a formulation governing the rest frame electrodynamics in rotating electromagnetic systems and circuits. This study reveals new rotation-induced effects such as fictitious charges, gain, energy harvesting, and new device functionalities, e.g., positive or negative memristors and their dualities. These effects may potentially offer pathways to new technologies and materials.

Unique signatures of the Rashba effect in the magneto-optical properties of two-dimensional semiconductors

Peter C. Sercel and Alexander L. Efros

Phys. Rev. B 107, 195436 (2023) - Published 25 May, 2023

The authors theoretically demonstrate two simple magneto-optical measurements which can be used to confirm the existence of Rashba terms in two-dimensional semiconductors even in samples of suboptimal quality, where the transition linewidths are comparable to, or larger than, the Landau-level splitting. The first suggested technique is magnetic circular dichroism (MCD), where a giant MCD signal should be observed at the band edge in the presence of Rashba terms. The second one is the comparison of the diamagnetic shift, measured in absorption, with that in photoluminescence which results from the dispersion minimum of the Rashba exciton.
