Both impurity- and magnetic-field-induced quasiparticle states in chiral $p$-wave superconductors are investigated theoretically by solving the Bogoliubov--de Gennes equations self-consistently. At the strong scattering limit, we find that…
Magnetic impurities in diamond influence the relaxation properties and thus limit the sensitivity of magnetic, electric, strain, and temperature sensors based on nitrogen-vacancy color centers. Diamond samples may exhibit significant…
Quantum spin impurities coupled to superconductors are under intense investigation for their relevance to fundamental research as well as the prospects to engineer novel quantum phases of matter. Here we develop a large-$N$ mean-field…
In order to investigate the effects of nonmagnetic impurities in strongly correlated systems, Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations have been carried out for the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model with one nonmagnetic impurity. Using a…
The Kondo effect, an eminent manifestation of many-body physics in condensed matter, is traditionally explained as exchange scattering of conduction electrons on a spinful impurity in a metal. The resulting screening of the impurity's local…
An ensemble of negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond can act as a precise quantum sensor even under ambient conditions. In particular, to optimize thier sensitivity, it is crucial to increase the number of spins sampled and…
We consider a single impurity with spin $S$ embedded in a three-dimensional antiferromagnetic system which is close to the quantum critical point (QCP), separating magnetically ordered and disordered phases. Approaching the QCP from the…
Magnetic impurities are responsible for many interesting phenomena in condensed matter systems, notably the Kondo effect and quantum phase transitions. Here we present a holographic model of a magnetic impurity that captures the main…
We review recent experimental progress on the saturation problem in metallic quantum wires. In particular, we address the influence of magnetic impurities on the electron phase coherence time. We also present new measurements of the phase…
We employ the method of the theory of open quantum systems to analyze spin relaxation and decoherence in semiconductors in the presence of a magnetic field. We derive a set of Bloch equations for electron spin with a fully microscopic…
Quark interaction with topologically non-trivial gluonic fields, instantons and sphalerons, violates \P and \CP symmetry. In the strong magnetic field of a non-central nuclear collision such interactions lead to the charge separation along…
We study the spin relaxation in graphene due to magnetic moments induced by defects. We propose and employ in our studies a microscopic model that describes magnetic impurity scattering processes mediated by charge puddles. This model…
Chiral structures that produce asymmetric spin-phonon coupling can theoretically generate spin-phonon polarons -- quasiparticles exhibiting non-degenerate spin states with phonon displacements. These quasiparticles are speculated to be the…
The interplay between the Kondo screening of quantum impurities (by the electronic channels to which they couple) and the interimpurity RKKY interactions (mediated by the same channels) has been extensively studied. However, the effect of…
Mirror symmetry is among the most fundamental concepts of physics and its spontaneous breaking at the molecular level allows chiral molecules to exist in two enantiomers that are mirror images of each other. The majority of chiro-optical…
We investigate the physics of a magnetic impurity with spin 1/2 in a correlated metallic host. Describing the band by a Hubbard Hamiltonian, the problem is analyzed using dynamical mean-field-theory in combination with Wilson's…
Susceptibility measurements of patterned thin films at sub-K temperatures were carried out using a scanning SQUID microscope that can resolve signals corresponding to a few hundred Bohr magnetons. Several metallic and insulating thin films,…
Chirality is a fundamental organizing principle of correlated and topological states. In quantum magnets, chirality arises from the geometric twisting of spins and serves as an emergent source of Berry curvature and quantum metrics.…
We demonstrate a magnetometry technique using nitrogen-vacancy centres in diamond which makes use of coherent two-photon transitions. We find that the sensitivity to magnetic fields can be significantly improved in isotopically purified…
Magnetic properties of quark matter are discussed. The possibility of ferromagnetic transition is studied by using the one-gluon-exchange interaction. Magnetic susceptibility is evaluated within Landau Fermi liquid theory, and the important…
