Controlling physical responses through symmetry breaking is a central paradigm in quantum materials, enabling novel functionalities. Here we determine the effects of spin-group-symmetry breaking on nonlinear optical responses of collinear…
Unconventional magnetism has typically been classified into two fundamental classes: even-parity magnets (EPMs) and odd-parity magnets (OPMs). These two classes exhibit identical and opposite spin splittings, respectively, under momentum…

We theoretically predict a spin-current analog of the quantized circular photogalvanic effect in Weyl semimetals. This phenomenon is forbidden in antiferromagnets by symmetry but uniquely allowed in altermagnets, highlighting a novel and…
The search for novel magnetic quantum phases, phenomena and functional materials has been guided by relativistic magnetic-symmetry groups in coupled spin and real space from the dawn of the field in 1950s to the modern era of topological…
