We present a mechanism to generate unidirectional pulse-shaped propagating waves, tamed to exponential growth and dispersion, in active systems with nonreciprocal and nonlinear couplings. In particular, when all bulk modes are exponentially…
There is strong interest in designing and realizing optically-active semiconductor nanostructures of greater complexity for applications in fields ranging from biomedical engineering to quantum computing. While these increasingly complex…
Collective excitations of many-body electron systems can carry internal structure, supporting novel quantum geometric and topological properties. Among these are a quantum geometric dipole (QGD), which for excitons have direct significance…
We use scanning near-field optical microscopy to image hyperbolic phonon polaritons in hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) billiards with integrable and chaotic geometries. In Sinai billiards, we observe irregular mode patterns consistent with…
We formulate a quantum master equation for the many-particle density matrix of electrons propagating through a single-mode conductor, combining elastic scattering by disorder with time-resolved projective measurements that monitor the…
In this work, we simulate the functionality of artificial neuron and synapse using spin-orbit torque-based spintronic devices and implemented a fully connected artificial neural netwrok (ANN). These neuro-synaptic devices are emulated using…
We investigate the solid-state implementation of a Dicke-like quantum battery consisting of a two-dimensional material-based Josephson junction inductively coupled to a resonator, using graphene as a representative example. In this…
We compute the entanglement dynamics across a monitored quantum point contact, where particle losses are recorded on a given site, and demonstrate how this single-site local monitoring substantially reshapes the entanglement production.…
Modulation doping, a well-established technique for traditional semiconductor heterostructures, is a promising approach for tailoring carrier concentration in 2D materials devices. In this letter we report on photoinduced modulation doping…
For the solid state physics, recent interest to topological systems is mostly connected with topological semimetals, in particular, to Weyl ones as the most representative semimetal type. Like other topological materials, e.g. topological…
Geometric analogs of Bloch oscillations studied so far have relied on Berry curvature. We show that a weakly inhomogeneous electric field adds a distinct quantum-metric term to semiclassical wavepacket dynamics, generating an oscillatory…
The topological semimetal FeSn antiferromagnet, characterized by its kagome lattice, two-dimensional flat bands, and Dirac-like surface states, holds immense promise for spintronic applications. In this work, for the first time, we…
We investigate the nonlinear dynamics of strongly coupled surface acoustic waves (SAWs) and spin waves (SWs) in a magnetoacoustic resonator based on a YIG/ZnO heterostructure by combining microwave reflection measurements with microfocused…
Open optical or plasmonic resonators are placed on and connected through surfaces or via waveguides, forming complex lightguiding nanostructures, e.g. for integrated photonic quantum devices. We derive general boundary conditions for…
We identify an intrinsic zero-temperature relaxation channel for near-surface spins gyromagnetically coupled to Rayleigh-wave vorticity. This surface-mode contribution requires no thermal phonons, unlike Raman relaxation, and is fixed by…
We report stroboscopic time-resolved photoluminescence (PL) microscopy and spectroscopy revealing the transverse near field of an edge excitation in a $\nu=1/3$ fractional quantum Hall (FQH) state. Time-resolved $y$-$t$ maps reveal an…
Anderson localization is usually understood as a transition between extended and localized phases, with criticality confined to a single mobility edge. Recent advances predict that quasiperiodic systems can instead host a finite critical…
Spin wave propagation and dynamic control are essential for reconfigurable magnonic and spintronic devices. Here, tunable mode coupling and band hybridisation are demonstrated in a nanopatterned bicomponent magnonic crystal consisting of a…
A recent Letter by Wadhia et al. reports a realization of a quantum clock using a double quantum dot (DQD) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 135, 200407 (2005)]. This Comment identifies two fundamental issues: (I) the claimed ``quantum clock" exhibits only…
Boltzmann transport theory, the standard framework for predicting thermal conductivity, assumes that every vibrational mode eventually scatters, acquiring a finite lifetime that yields a convergent, length-independent thermal conductivity:…
