EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Fractionalization as an alternate to charge ordering in electronic insulators

Seth Musser, Meng Cheng, and T. Senthil

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235108 (2025) - Published 2 June, 2025

Who ordered anyons? Though exotic, anyons can be required by a system’s fractional symmetry response. For example, in gapped systems with U(1) and unbroken translation symmetry, fractional lattice filling leads to anyons via the LSM constraint. The authors analyze here this setting and, for a given filling, determine the minimal number of required anyons. They prove this minimal topological order is unique and dub it a “quantum charge liquid” (QCL). The authors conclude by discussing the phenomenology of QCLs.

Electronic structure of $A V_{3} {Sb}_{5}$ kagome metals

Keyu Zeng, Zhan Wang, Kun Jiang, and Ziqiang Wang

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235114 (2025) - Published 6 June, 2025

The kagome metals $A$ V $_{3}$ Sb $_{5}$ ( $A$ =K, Rb, Cs) exhibit many intriguing correlated and topological electronic states. Understanding their multiorbital electronic band structure remains a challenge. The authors point out here the unusual and puzzling properties of the density functional theory electronic structure, including the double pure-sublattice-type van Hove singularities, their orbital content, and the geometric shape of the Fermi surface. A generalized multiorbital Slater-Koster approach is developed, which successfully solves these fundamental puzzles and produces a faithful multiorbital tight-binding model description of the electronic structure for kagome metals.

Long-lived coherence between incoherent excitons revealed by time-resolved angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy: An exact solution

Zhenlin Zhang, Wei Hu, Enrico Perfetto, and Gianluca Stefanucci

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235124 (2025) - Published 12 June, 2025

The authors study here exciton dynamics in an exactly solvable two-band semiconductor model, including light-matter, electron-electron, and electron-phonon interactions. They identify a long-lived coherence between incoherent excitons that persists despite phonon-induced dephasing. This coherence manifests as quantum beats in time-resolved angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy spectra, revealing dynamics distinct from previously known excitonic coherences.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Slow magnetic quantum oscillations in the $c$ -axis magnetoresistance of ${UTe}_{2}$

Freya Husstedt, Motoi Kimata, Sajal Naduvile Thadathil, Beat Valentin Schwarze, Markus König, Gerard Lapertot, Jean-Pascal Brison, Georg Knebel, Dai Aoki, J. Wosnitza, and Toni Helm

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235131 (2025) - Published 18 June, 2025

The authors investigate here the Fermi surface of the potential spin-triplet superconductor UTe $_{2}$ to gain insight in its dimensionality and properties. They perform transport measurements on bulk and microfabricated samples that show low-frequency quantum oscillations perpendicular to the quasi-2D Fermi surface sheets, most likely of unconventional origin such as quantum interference or quasiparticle lifetime oscillations. Their findings do not support the presence of a 3D pocket. Additionally, two distinct frequencies indicate a change in the Fermi surface topology, associated with a Lifshitz transition.

Geometric effects in the Dyakonov-Shur theory of terahertz photodetection

Riccardo Riolo, Marco Polini, Riccardo Mannella, and Andrea Tomadin

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235150 (2025) - Published 27 June, 2025

The authors revisit here the Dyakonov–Shur mechanism of terahertz photodetection in field effect transistors. While the classic theory assumes that the gate is as long as the channel, real devices often use shorter or multiple gates. The authors develop a theory accommodating arbitrary gate geometries and positions, revealing that a bad gate placement would degrade the photovoltage, while a good one can significantly enhance detection efficiency. This work bridges theory and device design, offering practical guidance to optimize THz photodetectors for realistic device architectures.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Relaxation dynamics of a quantum spin coupled to a topological edge state

Qiyu Liu, Christoph Karrasch, Dante Marvin Kennes, and Roman Rausch

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235153 (2025) - Published 30 June, 2025

The authors uncover here intriguing differences between quantum and classical impurity spins in one-dimensional topological materials. In the topologically nontrivial case, a quantum spin can be hyperpolarized beyond ground-state values due to Kondo screening effects, which are absent in classical systems. The authors introduce a method to extend the simulation time by a factor of 2.5 beyond the limit of tensor networks. This method learns and predicts the time series using the Sparse Identification of Nonlinear Dynamics (SINDy).

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Temporal CW polarization-tomography of photon pairs from the biexciton radiative cascade: Theory and experiment

Noam Tur, Ismail Nassar, Ido Schwartz, Joseph Avron, Dan Dalacu, Philip J. Poole, and David Gershoni

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235304 (2025) - Published 23 June, 2025

The authors investigate here temporal correlations in the polarization states of photon pairs emitted during the biexciton-exciton radiative cascade from a single semiconductor quantum dot, excited by a continuous-wave light source. The system is modeled using a Lindbladian framework coupled to two Markovian baths—one representing the excitation source and the other the emitted radiation. The model consolidates previous approaches that separately addressed the system’s incoherent and coherent dynamics. It accurately describes a series of polarization-sensitive, time-resolved two-photon correlation measurements.

Majorana sweet spots in three-site Kitaev chains

Rodrigo A. Dourado, Martin Leijnse, and Rubén Seoane Souto

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235409 (2025) - Published 3 June, 2025

Nonoverlapping Majorana states form the foundation of quantum devices based on topological superconductors. Artificial Kitaev chains have recently emerged as a promising platform for realizing well-localized Majoranas. In their minimal form, these chains host Majoranas at isolated sweet spots in parameter space, with experimental signatures already observed in short chains. Here, the authors investigate three-site Kitaev chains, identifying and classifying distinct sweet spots based on Majorana localization, and outline practical methods to distinguish them—an essential step toward future Majorana-based quantum devices.

Measurement-induced phase transition in free bosons

Kazuki Yokomizo and Yuto Ashida

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235419 (2025) - Published 10 June, 2025

A measurement-induced phase transition originates from the competition between quantum many-body dynamics and quantum measurements. Here, the authors study a measurement-induced phase transition in free bosons with long-range coupling. The theoretical results indicate that the transition belongs to an unconventional universality class other than, e.g., the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless class.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Partial Landau-Zener transitions and applications to qubit shuttling

Jonas R. F. Lima and Guido Burkard

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235439 (2025) - Published 20 June, 2025

The authors introduce here the partial Landau-Zener model, which lends itself to the prediction and optimization of valley transition probabilities during spin shuttling in semiconductors. This is an essential problem for semiconductor qubits. It is revealed that the Hamiltonian curve plays a crucial role in the transition probability of two-level systems without a geometric factor. This allows for the superadiabatic regime, including an unconditionally adiabatic scenario without transitions no matter how fast the system evolves, opening new avenues for quantum control.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Optimal qubit-mediated quantum heat transfer via noncommuting operators and strong coupling effects

Marlon Brenes, Jakub Garwoła, and Dvira Segal

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235440 (2025) - Published 20 June, 2025

The authors study here quantum heat transfer through a spin impurity. Using numerical simulations and an analytical theory, they identify pairs of system-bath coupling operators that maximize heat transfer at arbitrary coupling strengths to the environments. They reveal a stark contrast in the conditions required for optimal heat transfer depending on whether the system is weakly or strongly coupled to the heat baths. Notably, in the strong-coupling regime, noncommuting system-bath coupling operators between the hot and cold reservoirs are necessary to achieve optimal heat transfer.

Theory of superconducting proximity effect in hole-based hybrid semiconductor-superconductor devices

D. Michel Pino, Rubén Seoane Souto, Maria José Calderón, Ramón Aguado, and José Carlos Abadillo-Uriel

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235443 (2025) - Published 20 June, 2025

Hybrid systems combining superconductors and hole-based semiconductors are rapidly gaining prominence as a foundational platform for quantum technologies, including the pursuit of robust topological qubits with novel materials combinations. Despite their promise, a comprehensive theoretical understanding of how the superconducting proximity effect manifests in two-dimensional hole gases has remained elusive—until now. Here, the authors present the first unified theoretical framework that captures the full complexity of proximity-induced superconductivity in such systems.

Transparent graphene-superconductor interfaces: Quantum Hall and zero field regimes

Alexey Bondarev, Gu Zhang, and Harold U. Baranger

Phys. Rev. B 111, 235444 (2025) - Published 25 June, 2025

The authors investigate here edge-contacted graphene-superconductor interfaces, revealing that Andreev reflection is significantly stronger than in conventional semiconductor systems due to graphene’s Dirac points. For a transparent interface, the models show maximal electron-hole hybridization, leading in the quantum Hall regime to chiral electron-hole edge modes. The authors demonstrate that these modes form naturally for a broad range of superconductors independent of graphene filling. This work characterizes the spectrum and wavefunction of these unique chiral hybridized states at the superconducting boundary.
