Charge density waves and soft phonon evolution in the superconductor BaNi2(As1xPx)2

Tom Lacmann, Sofia-Michaela Souliou, Fabian Henssler, Mehdi Frachet, Philippa Helen McGuinness, Michael Merz, Björn Wehinger, Daniel A. Chaney, Amir-Abbas Haghighirad, Rolf Heid, and Matthieu Le Tacon

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054101 (2025) - Published 4 August, 2025

The authors investigate here the interplay of incommensurate and commensurate charge density waves (CDWs) in superconducting BaNi2(As1xPx)2 using thermal diffuse and inelastic x-ray scattering. While phosphorus substitution rapidly suppresses structural transitions, incommensurate CDW fluctuations remain robust. First-principles lattice dynamics capture most of the diffuse scattering, linking it to the soft-phonon-driven incommensurate CDW. In contrast, the commensurate CDW and triclinic phase show no phonon anomalies, indicating that these transitions are not driven by conventional lattice instabilities.

Atomic-scale phase-field modeling for ferroelectrics

Kairi Masuda and Andrew M. Rappe

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054107 (2025) - Published 26 August, 2025

Phase-field modeling has been used to visualize local thermodynamic states, that is, spatially inhomogeneous free energy, entropy, and stress in ferroelectrics. Here, the authors show that phase-field modeling can be extended to the atomic scale by combining variational Gaussian theory with a bond-valence interatomic potential. Using this approach, they visualize atomic-resolution thermodynamic states in PbTiO3 and find that the ferroelectric–paraelectric transition may be driven by a local increase in the vibrational free energy of Pb atoms.

Phononic frictional losses of a particle crossing a crystal: Linear response theory

Gabriele Riva, Giacomo Piscia, Nicolas Trojani, Giuseppe E. Santoro, Erio Tosatti, and Nicola Manini

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054310 (2025) - Published 18 August, 2025

Sliding friction, caused by phonons elicited by a weakly interacting slider, is accessible to a quantitative analytic formula through linear-response theory unlike most other solid-solid sliding problems, such as Coulomb friction. Here, the authors present an analytic formula, whose practical advantage is to offer an accurate evaluation which is much faster than molecular-dynamics simulations, with which it strikingly agrees.

Interplay of magnetic ordering and charge transport in distorted ScAl3C3-type GdZn3As3

Zhiyu Zhou, Xiyu Chen, Jia-Yi Lu, Junchao Zhang, Xiong Luo, Guang-Han Cao, Shuai Dong, and Zhi-Cheng Wang

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054418 (2025) - Published 6 August, 2025

The authors report here the synthesis and characterization of GdZn3As3, which adopts a distorted Al3C3-type orthorhombic structure (Cmcm space group). Magnetic measurements reveal ferromagnetic ordering below Tc=6.3K, accompanied by a significant negative magnetoresistance reaching (−184)% and a clear nonlinear anomalous Hall effect. This unique crystal structure and ferromagnetism distinguishes GdZn3As3 from other members of the RM3X3 family (R = lanthanides; M = Zn, Cd; X = P, As), which typically crystallize in hexagonal structures and exhibit antiferromagnetic ordering.

Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization in alkali metals

Bernardine L. D. Rinkel, Katharina Märker, Marie Juramy, Subhradip Paul, Svetlana Menkin, and Clare P. Grey

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054419 (2025) - Published 6 August, 2025

In 1953, A.W. Overhauser predicted that nuclear spin polarization could be enhanced by irradiating a metal’s electron spin resonance. Here, the authors explore the requirements and limitations of the Overhauser effect for alkali metals at the high magnetic field strengths used today, and with samples relevant to rechargeable metal batteries–lithium and sodium-metal dendrites. Lithium’s small spin-orbit coupling yields sufficiently long electron relaxation times, enabling the enhancement of the metal NMR signal and the signals arising from electrolyte degradation products.

Describing stripelike corrugation patterns in C60 monolayers grown on Cu(111) using a frustrated spin Hamiltonian

M. Alfonso-Moro, V. Guisset, P. David, J. Coraux, and N. Rougemaille

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054431 (2025) - Published 13 August, 2025

Fullerene monolayers on Cu(111) exhibit various types of corrugation patterns that can be conviniently imaged by scanning tunneling microscopy. Here, the authors perform a statistical analysis of the molecule–molecule correlations that develop in C60 islands presenting a disordered, stripelike corrugation pattern. Comparing their observations with numerical predictions, they conclude that C60 molecular patterns are described well by a frustrated Ising spin Hamiltonian, and they can distinguish islands presenting a corrugation pattern typical of an equilibrated configuration from those being seemingly nonequilibrated.

Superspin renormalization and slow relaxation in random spin systems

Yi J. Zhao, Samuel J. Garratt, and Joel E. Moore

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054436 (2025) - Published 14 August, 2025

Many quantum simulation and computation platforms operate on microscopic degrees of freedom that are randomly or controllably positioned and interact across long distances. Here, the authors develop a theory that describes the dynamics of such systems and that allows for large-scale numerical simulations. This theory, based on the excited-state real-space renormalization group, describes dynamics in terms of emergent “superspins,” collective two-level degrees of freedom. The coherent dynamics of the superspins, which survive out to time scales many orders of magnitude larger than inverse microscopic energy scales, is a robust many-body interference effect.

Dominance of the orbital Hall effect over spin in transition metal heterostructures

J. L. Costa, E. Santos, J. B. S. Mendes, and A. Azevedo

Phys. Rev. B 112, 054443 (2025) - Published 20 August, 2025

The orbital Hall effect has emerged as a key phenomenon in solid-state physics, revealing orbital transport as a counterpart to spin transport in spintronics. In this work, spin and orbital Hall effects were disentangled across 19 transition metals. The results show that orbital-to-charge conversion often dominates spin, consistent with first-principles predictions. These findings underscore the fundamental role of orbital transport and establish orbitronics as a promising frontier in condensed matter physics.

Charge density waves and soft phonon evolution in the superconductor BaNi2(As1xPx)2

The orbital Hall effect has emerged as a key phenomenon in solid-state physics, revealing orbital transport as a counterpart to spin transport in spintronics. In this work, spin and orbital Hall effects were disentangled across 19 transition metals. The results show that orbital-to-charge conversion often dominates spin, consistent with first-principles predictions. These findings underscore the fundamental role of orbital transport and establish orbitronics as a promising frontier in condensed matter physics.
