Type-II higher-order Weyl phononic crystals with selective hinge activation

Haobin Zhang, Xiaoming Li, Zhijie Xue, Quanquan Shi, Jiajun Lu, Yingyi Huang, Jiebin Peng, Jianhua Guo, Li Luo, Degang Zhao, Xin Zhang, Jiuyang Lu, and Zhengyou Liu

Phys. Rev. B 114, 084102 (2026) - Published 4 August, 2026

A simple interlayer-coupling mechanism drives the transition from type-I to type-II higher-order semimetal phases in phononic crystals. Here, the authors realize a type-II higher-order Weyl phononic crystal supporting coexisting Fermi arc surface states and hinge states. Boundary engineering through unit-cell rotation enables selective activation of hinge states, opening new opportunities for programmable topological wave manipulation.

Anharmonic dephasing in the electron-phonon interaction

Mingran Kong and Bartomeu Monserrat

Phys. Rev. B 114, 084303 (2026) - Published 7 August, 2026

The electron-phonon interaction governs superconductivity, electrical transport, and the optical response of solids, and is now routinely computed from first principles. These calculations typically assume that lattice vibrations live forever, but in reality anharmonic interactions between phonons give them finite lifetimes. The authors derive here a tractable expression that includes this phonon dephasing into the electron-phonon scattering rate, implement it within standard computational workflows, and apply it to silicon, silicon carbide, and lead telluride, thus opening a long-neglected regime to systematic first-principles study.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

High harmonic spectroscopy from lower-order to higher-order topological insulators

Bryan Lorenzo, Carlos Batista, Milad Jangjan, Dasol Kim, Jean Menotti, Feng Liu, Wenlong Gao, Shambhu Ghimire, Camilo Granados, and Alexis Chacón

Phys. Rev. B 114, 084307 (2026) - Published 24 August, 2026

Here, the authors demonstrate that high-harmonic spectroscopy from lower-order to higher-order topological insulators reveals distinct contributions from bulk, edge, and corner electronic states. By systematically resolving these emission channels, they establish how topological features evolve across different classes of topological materials and clarify the microscopic origin of the emitted harmonics. Their results provide a unified framework for understanding and exploiting high-harmonic generation as a probe of topological quantum matter.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Phase control of magnon-phonon coupling via magnetic field

Yasuhiro Todaka, Motoki Asano, Isamu Yasuda, Masashi Kawaguchi, Daiki Hatanaka, and Masamitsu Hayashi

Phys. Rev. B 114, 084426 (2026) - Published 25 August, 2026

Magnon-phonon coupling has attracted considerable interest because of its potential applications in hybrid quantum systems and magnonic devices. Here, the authors show that the coupling constant evolves from real to complex as the external magnetic field is reduced, thereby causing a pronounced minimum in phonon transmittance near zero field. The results demonstrate that the phase and magnitude of the complex coupling constant can be tuned with magnetic field in strongly damped magnets, offering a platform for exploring novel regimes of magnon-phonon interaction.

Topological gyromorphs

Laura Gómez Paz, Justin Schirmann, Adam Yanis Chaou, Isidora Araya Day, and Adolfo G. Grushin

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080201 (2026) - Published 31 August, 2026

Gyromorphs are disordered structures that retain quasi-long-range rotational order. They support unusually large, isotropic photonic band gaps, making them promising for technological applications. Here, the authors show that gyromorphs host higher-order topological insulating phases protected by rotational symmetry realized only on average, precisely where standard real-space diagnostics become ambiguous. They develop a diagnostic toolbox for average rotational symmetries that yields a consistent phase diagram, establishing gyromorphs as a new platform for statistical-symmetry-protected topology beyond crystals and quasicrystals.

LETTER

Phonon scattering mechanisms in ${WTe}_{2}$ observed by ultrafast coherent phonon spectroscopy

Mizuki Akei, Yu Mizukoshi, and Muneaki Hase

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080303 (2026) - Published 5 August, 2026

$T_{d}$ -WTe $_{2}$ is a Weyl semimetal, which exhibits unique physical properties of electronic states, such as the Lifshitz transition. Here, using ultrafast laser spectroscopy, the authors reveal contribution of phonon-electron scattering only for the low-frequency $A_{1}$ optical phonon, in addition to conventional phonon-phonon scattering at low temperatures. The findings of the phonon-electron scattering path possibly induced by the Lifshitz transition pave the way for further exploration of the electronic structure and transport properties in a wide range of quantum materials.

LETTER

Electronic conductivity in anharmonic crystals: Phonon dephasing in the electron-phonon interaction

Mingran Kong and Bartomeu Monserrat

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080304 (2026) - Published 7 August, 2026

The electron-phonon interaction governs properties from electrical conductivity to superconductivity, and first-principles calculations of it typically assume that phonons have infinite lifetimes. Here, the authors go beyond this approximation, presenting a theory and first-principles implementation of electrons coupling to finite-lifetime phonons dephased by anharmonic phonon-phonon interactions. In metallic MgB $_{2}$ , this dephasing opens new scattering channels that strongly enhance electron-phonon scattering and suppress the calculated conductivity, improving agreement with experiment and pointing to a broader role for phonon lifetimes in anharmonic metals.

Incommensurate antiferromagnetism with amplitude modulation in the semiconducting $5 f$ van der Waals magnet $α − {UTe}_{3}$

Hironori Sakai, Chihiro Tabata, Koji Kaneko, Yoshifumi Tokiwa, Takafumi Kitazawa, Shinsaku Kambe, Yo Tokunaga, and Yoshinori Haga

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080402 (2026) - Published 7 August, 2026

Here, the authors combine nuclear magnetic resonance and single-crystal neutron diffraction to constrain a plausible magnetic structure model for the incommensurate antiferromagnetic state of the semiconducting 5 $f$ van der Waals magnet $α$ -UTe $_{3}$ . The model captures strong spin anisotropy and spatially modulated ordered moments, suggesting that this unusual order develops near a quantum critical point associated with crystal-field singlet induced magnetism in a layered actinide system with highly anisotropic 5 $f$ electrons.

Sizable ligand-mediated bond-dependent interactions in the spin-1 triangular antiferromagnet ${NiI}_{2}$

Hao Xu, Weiqin Zhu, Shufan Cheng, Yanyan Shangguan, Song Bao, Junbo Liao, Bo Zhang, Zihang Song, Shuai Dong, Maofeng Wu, Stanislav E. Nikitin, Travis J. Williams, Changsong Xu, and Jinsheng Wen

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080405 (2026) - Published 25 August, 2026

Kitaev interaction can generate unusual quantum states and is usually sought in compounds with strongly spin-orbit-coupled magnetic ions. Here, the authors combine neutron scattering with calculations of magnetic structure and excitations to establish sizable Kitaev and off-diagonal interactions in the spin-1 triangular magnet NiI $_{2}$ , with spin-orbit coupling supplied instead by surrounding iodine atoms. These interactions stabilize its canted proper-screw order and open an excitation gap. This finding extends the search for Kitaev physics into high‑spin systems with intrinsically weak ionic spin–orbit coupling.

Trigonal warping enables linear optical spectroscopy in single-valley superconductors

Benjamin A. Levitan and Étienne Lantagne-Hurtubise

Phys. Rev. B 114, L080507 (2026) - Published 24 August, 2026

Internal vibrations of the superconducting condensate, such as clapping modes and Bardasis-Schrieffer modes, are often invisible to linear optical spectroscopy due to crystallographic selection rules. Here, the authors show how, in threefold-symmetric valley-polarized superconductors, trigonal warping allows these modes to absorb light at linear order. Consequently, the modes appear in both components of the optical conductivity tensor. The authors then discuss how rhombohedral graphene multilayers provide natural candidate materials in which to probe superconducting collective excitations by microwave spectroscopy.
