Phys. Rev. B 109, 184311 (2024) - Published 22 May, 2024

The warm dense matter regime is generally found in materials compressed to several times their densities on the Earth’s surface at temperatures hot enough to produce a conducting fluid, but not so hot that the cohesive binding is overwhelmed by the temperature. This region of phase space is notoriously difficult to constrain with theoretical models. Iron is the most stable element, and is relevant to astrophysics, planetary physics, and industry. The paper here describes experiments using giant kilojoule lasers to shock compress iron to warm dense matter conditions and then send acoustic waves through this compressed material. This method yields the first experimental measurements of sound speed and Grüneisen parameter in shocked iron in the terapascal range, and reveals an interesting dependence on density and melting for these physically important derivatives of the equation of state.

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184402 (2024) - Published 2 May, 2024

This study explores a novel approach to exciting spin waves in single-crystal iron using parametric pumping. This technique achieves significant results at exceptionally low power levels, revealing unconventional behavior in this material. These findings suggest that single-crystal iron holds immense promise as a platform for spin-wave manipulation. A systematic investigation of parametric pumping in single-crystal iron paves the way for the development of low-power spin-wave devices.

Competing anisotropies in the chiral cubic magnet Co8Zn8Mn4 unveiled by resonant x-ray magnetic scattering

Victor Ukleev, Oleg I. Utesov, Chen Luo, Florin Radu, Sebastian Wintz, Markus Weigand, Simone Finizio, Moritz Winter, Alexander Tahn, Bernd Rellinghaus, Kosuke Karube, Yoshinori Tokura, Yasujiro Taguchi, and Jonathan S. White

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184415 (2024) - Published 8 May, 2024

Using x-ray resonant magnetic scattering in vector magnetic fields, this work explores the effect of the anisotropic exchange interaction on the magnetic spiral pitch in the cubic chiral magnet Co8Zn8Mn4. The experimental data reveal up to a 5% variation in the helical pitch within the (001) plane depending on temperature. Furthermore, the results reveal the existence of intrinsic competition between magnetocrystalline and exchange anisotropies in this material, with each favoring different orientations of the helical vector in the ground state.

Koushik Pradhan, Arun Paramekanti, and Tanusri Saha-Dasgupta

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184416 (2024) - Published 8 May, 2024

In contrast to dipolar refrigerator magnets, multipolar magnets possess more than just a north pole and a south pole. Using first principles and exact diagonalization calculations, this work establishes transition metal based vacancy-ordered halide double perovskites as new candidates for octupolar magnetism. The authors uncover a non-Kramers doublet ground state in these materials, explain the strong temperature-dependent effective magnetic moment, highlight the breakdown of the classic Kotani plot, and predict hidden octupolar order which may be tested in future experiments.

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184417 (2024) - Published 8 May, 2024

In hybrid-improper ferroelectrics, two nonpolar structural distortions jointly give rise to a spontaneous electric polarization. In Ca3Mn1.9Ti0.1O7, this ferroelectric state coexists with antiferromagnetism to yield a new type of multiferroic. Here, the authors show that it is characterized by a pronounced magnetoelectric response of the ferroelectric state to the intrinsic magnetic ordering and to external magnetic fields. Optical second harmonic generation is of particular advantage to this study, as it provides access to the electric polarization with spatial resolution of its domains.

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184432 (2024) - Published 17 May, 2024

The subtle interplay between competing degrees of freedom offers an ideal route for the experimental realization of emergent quantum and topological phenomena with exotic quasiparticle excitations in three-dimensional noncentrosymmetric frustrated magnets on a trillium lattice. Here, the authors demonstrate the coexistence of competing magnetic states and short-range spin correlations well above the magnetic phase transition in a frustrated double trillium lattice comprised of Cr3+ ions decorated on a three-dimensional chiral network of corner-shared equilateral triangular motifs.

Relationship between magnetic asymmetry and magnetization in ultrafast transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet spectral range

Johanna Richter, Somnath Jana, Martin Hennecke, Daniel Schick, Clemens von Korff Schmising, and Stefan Eisebitt

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184440 (2024) - Published 30 May, 2024

Ultrafast transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect (T-MOKE) spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet provides element-specific insights into magnetization dynamics. However, the relationship between T-MOKE magnetic asymmetry and sample magnetization can be complex, even in the absence of nonequilibrium magnetization dynamics. Here, the authors present static and time-resolved data, together with wave propagation simulations, for a prototypical magnetic heterostructure that shows significant deviations from linearity, including increasing asymmetry despite decreasing magnetization. They also propose sample structures and experimental geometries in which a linear T-MOKE response remains valid.

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184443 (2024) - Published 30 May, 2024

Nuclear magnetic resonance is typically performed at high magnetic fields, where heteronuclei are weakly coupled and resonate at their own frequences. This paper presents how hyperpolarization enables detection in the intermediate and strong-coupling regimes by using ultrasensitive SQUID setups. The authors also analytically derived product operators for this system (13C-labeled pyruvate) at arbitrary magnetic field. This confirms that spin precession does not occur at zero field, but rather that spins oscillate along an axis, demonstrating the importance of detection direction.

Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons under coherent pumping by light

Liang Li and Tianyu Liu

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184447 (2024) - Published 31 May, 2024

Room-temperature quantum computing and solid-state quantum simulations have been long-standing goals in the field of quantum information science. Magnon Bose-Einstein condensation at room temperature may provide a key advance towards these objectives. Normally, the magnon Bose-Einstein condensation is driven by microwave pumping and detected by light. Here, the authors propose a method to create stable magnon condensate using lasers in a magneto-optical cavity, opening new avenues for all-optical control in quantum magnonics.

Preempted phonon-mediated superconductivity in the infinite-layer nickelates

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184505 (2024) - Published 3 May, 2024

To be, or not to be, phonon mediated. That is the first question to answer for new superconductors, especially if they show important analogies with the cuprates. Here, the infinite-layer nickelates are scrutinized by means of first-principles calculations, including dynamical correlations in the GW approximation. The results suggest phonon-mediated superconductivity with low-Tc in the parent compounds. However, the analysis of doping and pressure confirm the non-phonon mediated nature of the mechanism behind the maximal Tc observed in these systems.

The interplay between real-space topological lattice defects and momentum-space band topology can lead to new topological states. Here, the authors demonstrate that disclinations in acoustic valley-Hall crystals can induce valley-like transport. Using this mechanism, various acoustic topological waveguides with irregular shapes and multiple internal terminations are experimentally realized, providing a novel way for robust free-from waveguiding.

The warm dense matter regime is generally found in materials compressed to several times their densities on the Earth’s surface at temperatures hot enough to produce a conducting fluid, but not so hot that the cohesive binding is overwhelmed by the temperature. This region of phase space is notoriously difficult to constrain with theoretical models. Iron is the most stable element, and is relevant to astrophysics, planetary physics, and industry. The paper here describes experiments using giant kilojoule lasers to shock compress iron to warm dense matter conditions and then send acoustic waves through this compressed material. This method yields the first experimental measurements of sound speed and Grüneisen parameter in shocked iron in the terapascal range, and reveals an interesting dependence on density and melting for these physically important derivatives of the equation of state.

This study explores a novel approach to exciting spin waves in single-crystal iron using parametric pumping. This technique achieves significant results at exceptionally low power levels, revealing unconventional behavior in this material. These findings suggest that single-crystal iron holds immense promise as a platform for spin-wave manipulation. A systematic investigation of parametric pumping in single-crystal iron paves the way for the development of low-power spin-wave devices.

Using x-ray resonant magnetic scattering in vector magnetic fields, this work explores the effect of the anisotropic exchange interaction on the magnetic spiral pitch in the cubic chiral magnet Co8Zn8Mn4. The experimental data reveal up to a 5% variation in the helical pitch within the (001) plane depending on temperature. Furthermore, the results reveal the existence of intrinsic competition between magnetocrystalline and exchange anisotropies in this material, with each favoring different orientations of the helical vector in the ground state.

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184416 (2024) - Published 8 May, 2024

In contrast to dipolar refrigerator magnets, multipolar magnets possess more than just a north pole and a south pole. Using first principles and exact diagonalization calculations, this work establishes transition metal based vacancy-ordered halide double perovskites as new candidates for octupolar magnetism. The authors uncover a non-Kramers doublet ground state in these materials, explain the strong temperature-dependent effective magnetic moment, highlight the breakdown of the classic Kotani plot, and predict hidden octupolar order which may be tested in future experiments.

Magnetoelectric coupling in the multiferroic hybrid-improper ferroelectric Ca3Mn1.9Ti0.1O7

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184417 (2024) - Published 8 May, 2024

In hybrid-improper ferroelectrics, two nonpolar structural distortions jointly give rise to a spontaneous electric polarization. In Ca3Mn1.9Ti0.1O7, this ferroelectric state coexists with antiferromagnetism to yield a new type of multiferroic. Here, the authors show that it is characterized by a pronounced magnetoelectric response of the ferroelectric state to the intrinsic magnetic ordering and to external magnetic fields. Optical second harmonic generation is of particular advantage to this study, as it provides access to the electric polarization with spatial resolution of its domains.

The subtle interplay between competing degrees of freedom offers an ideal route for the experimental realization of emergent quantum and topological phenomena with exotic quasiparticle excitations in three-dimensional noncentrosymmetric frustrated magnets on a trillium lattice. Here, the authors demonstrate the coexistence of competing magnetic states and short-range spin correlations well above the magnetic phase transition in a frustrated double trillium lattice comprised of Cr3+ ions decorated on a three-dimensional chiral network of corner-shared equilateral triangular motifs.

Relationship between magnetic asymmetry and magnetization in ultrafast transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet spectral range

Phys. Rev. B 109, 184440 (2024) - Published 30 May, 2024

Ultrafast transverse magneto-optical Kerr effect (T-MOKE) spectroscopy in the extreme ultraviolet provides element-specific insights into magnetization dynamics. However, the relationship between T-MOKE magnetic asymmetry and sample magnetization can be complex, even in the absence of nonequilibrium magnetization dynamics. Here, the authors present static and time-resolved data, together with wave propagation simulations, for a prototypical magnetic heterostructure that shows significant deviations from linearity, including increasing asymmetry despite decreasing magnetization. They also propose sample structures and experimental geometries in which a linear T-MOKE response remains valid.

Nuclear magnetic resonance is typically performed at high magnetic fields, where heteronuclei are weakly coupled and resonate at their own frequences. This paper presents how hyperpolarization enables detection in the intermediate and strong-coupling regimes by using ultrasensitive SQUID setups. The authors also analytically derived product operators for this system (13C-labeled pyruvate) at arbitrary magnetic field. This confirms that spin precession does not occur at zero field, but rather that spins oscillate along an axis, demonstrating the importance of detection direction.

Room-temperature quantum computing and solid-state quantum simulations have been long-standing goals in the field of quantum information science. Magnon Bose-Einstein condensation at room temperature may provide a key advance towards these objectives. Normally, the magnon Bose-Einstein condensation is driven by microwave pumping and detected by light. Here, the authors propose a method to create stable magnon condensate using lasers in a magneto-optical cavity, opening new avenues for all-optical control in quantum magnonics.

To be, or not to be, phonon mediated. That is the first question to answer for new superconductors, especially if they show important analogies with the cuprates. Here, the infinite-layer nickelates are scrutinized by means of first-principles calculations, including dynamical correlations in the GW approximation. The results suggest phonon-mediated superconductivity with low-Tc in the parent compounds. However, the analysis of doping and pressure confirm the non-phonon mediated nature of the mechanism behind the maximal Tc observed in these systems.
