Measuring degeneracy and broken-symmetry states of a system at nanoscale requires extremely high energy and spatial resolution, which has so far eluded direct observation. Here, we realize measurement of the degeneracy and subtle…
We analyze the valley composition of one electron bound to a shallow donor close to a Si/barrier interface as a function of an applied electric field. A full six-valley effective mass model Hamiltonian is adopted. For low fields, the…
Different ways exist in optics to realize photons carrying nonzero orbital angular momentum. Such photons with rotating wave fronts are called twisted photons. In microwaves, twisted fields can be produced based on small ferrite particles…
Atomically thin transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) possess coupling of spin and valley degrees of freedom, making them promising for spin-valleytronics. ln monolayer TMDs, the emission helicity is locked to the valleys as a consequence…
This study delves into the intrinsic nonlinear valley thermal effects, driven by the Quantum Metric of the system. Our findings elucidate that valley indices in the nonlinear effect are distinguishable by the thermoelectric correction to…
Itinerant antiferromagnets with broken time-reversal symmetry have recently attracted attention, since their spin-split bands enable large magnetotransport responses comparable to ferromagnets despite the negligible spontaneous…
Topological metals and semimetals (TMs) have recently drawn significant interest. These materials give rise to condensed matter realizations of many important concepts in high-energy physics, leading to wide-ranging protected properties in…
Electrons' multiple quantum degrees of freedom can lead to rich physics, including a competition between various exotic ground states, as well as novel applications such as spintronics and valleytronics. Here we report magneto-transport…
We use symmetry analysis and density functional theory to characterize antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials which have a finite equilibrium magnetization density on particular surface terminations. A nonzero magnetic dipole moment per unit…
Collinear antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials have unique promise of no stray fields, display ultrafast dynamics, and being robust against perturbation filed which motivates the extensive research of antiferromagnetic spintronics. However,…

Coexisting ferromagnetic (FM) and antiferromagnetic (AFM) phases over a range of temperature (T) and magnetic field (H), have been reported in many materials. The 1st order FM-AFM transition is completed over a broad T (or H) range; this is…
In few-layer (FL) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC), the conduction bands along the Gamma-K directions shift downward energetically in the presence of interlayer interactions, forming six Q valleys related by three-fold rotational…
Asymmetric magnetization reversal is an unusual phenomenon in antiferromagnet / ferromagnet (AF/FM) exchange biased bilayers. We investigated this phenomenon in a simple model system experimentally and by simulation assuming inhomogeneously…
