We describe a method to control the directional scattering of a high index dielectric nanosphere, which utilizes the unique focusing properties of an azimuthally polarized phase vortex and a radially polarized beam to independently excite…

Previous experimental studies have found that the neutral gas rotational flow in the opposite direction of electron Hall drift can lead to better experimental results comparing to the same direction. In Hall thrusters, the core factor…

We describe how to control the temporal shape of adiabaton using peculiarities of propagation dynamics under coherent population trapping. Temporal compression is demonstrated as a special case of pulse shaping. The general case of unequal…

Optical control of structure-driven magnetic order offers a platform for magneto-optical terahertz devices. We control the magnetic phases of $d^1$ Mott insulating titanates using nonlinear phononics to transiently perturb the atomic…

In the ionization region above circular planar magnetrons well defined regions of high emissivity are observed, when the discharge is driven in the HiPIMS regime. Once their mode is stabilized, these structures rotate in the E x B direction…

The voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy (VCMA) effect in FeB and FeB/W films was measured by four independent methods. All measurements are consistent and show the same tendency. The coercive field, Hall angle, anisotropy field, the…

Topological insulators, which allow edge or interface waves but forbid bulk waves, have revolutionized our scientific cognition of acoustic/elastic systems. Due to their nontrivial topological characteristics, edge (interface)waves are…

Active systems exhibit spontaneous flows induced by self-propulsion of microscopic constituents and can reach a nonequilibrium steady state without an external drive. Constructing the analogy between the quantum anomalous Hall insulators…

The control of the spatial distribution of micrometer-sized dust particles in capacitively coupled radio frequency discharges is relevant for research and applications. Typically, dust particles in plasmas form a layer located at the sheath…

We propose a realization of a transformation-based acoustic temporal cloak using an active closed-loop control approach to an equivalent electromagnetic problem. Unlike the more common spatial cloaks the goal of which is hiding fixed…

The creation and design of a plasma thruster are considered using a rotating cylindrical plasma flow in crossed magnetic fields. The thruster scheme uses this plasma guided by a permanent, radial and a time-dependent axial magnetic field.…

The nature of a metal-insulator transition tuned by external gates in quantum Hall (QH) systems with point constrictions, as reported in recent experiments of Roddaro et al [1], is examined. We attribute this phenomenon to a splitting of…

Topological properties of quantum materials are intimately related to symmetry. Here, we tune the magnetic order of the axion insulator candidate EuIn$_2$As$_2$ from its broken-helix ground state to the field-polarized phase by applying an…

The Hall conductance $\sigma_{xy}$ of two-dimensional {\it lattice} electrons with random potential is investigated. The change of $\sigma_{xy}$ due to randomness is focused on. It is a quantum phase transition where the {\it sum rule} of…

We numerically demonstrate a practical means of systematically controlling topological transport on the surface of a three dimensional topological insulator, by introducing strong disorder in a layer of depth $d$ extending inward from the…

Acoustics-based techniques are investigated to focus and bunch nanoparticle beams. This allows to overcome the prominent problem of the longitudinal and transverse mismatch of particle stream and x-ray beam in single-particle/single…

Topological phases are states of matter defined by global topological invariants that remain invariant under adiabatic parameter variations, provided no topological phase transition occurs. This endows them with intrinsic robustness against…

Magnetic nozzles (MN) are known to be subject to anomalous non-collisional diffusion mechanisms driven by instabilities and wave-particle interactions. This study therefore employs a fully kinetic axial-radial particle-in-cell (PIC) model…

Manipulating the shape of nanoscale objects in a controllable fashion is at the heart of designing materials that act as building blocks for self-assembly or serve as targeted drug delivery carriers. Inducing shape deformations by…

We demonstrate that a quantum spin Hall current, spontaneously generated at the edge of a two-dimensional topological insulator, acts as a source of spin-pumping for a magnetic impurity with uniaxial anisotropy. One can then manipulate the…
