The delicate balance of spin-screening and spin-aligning interactions determines many of the peculiar properties of dilute magnetic systems. We study a surface-supported all-organic multi-impurity Kondo spin system at the atomic scale by…
First-principles calculations predict the existence of a spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the LaO/EuO interface in a LaAlO3/EuO (001) heterostructure. This polar interface favors electron doping into the Eu-5d…
Around 0.5 K, the entropy of the spin-ice Dy$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ has a plateau-like feature close to Pauling's residual entropy derived originally for water ice, but an unambiguous quantification towards lower temperature is prevented by…
We investigate the thermodynamics of artificial square spin ice systems assuming only dipolar interactions among the islands that compose the array. The emphasis is given on the effects of the temperature on the elementary excitations…
We present non-equilibrium physics in spin ice as a novel setting which combines kinematic constraints, emergent topological defects, and magnetic long range Coulomb interactions. In spin ice, magnetic frustration leads to highly degenerate…
There are two distinct regimes of Yang-Mills theory where we can demonstrate confinement, the existence of a mass gap, and fractional theta angle dependence using a reliable semi-classical calculation. The two regimes are Yang-Mills theory…
We studied the crystal structure and spin state of MnP under high pressure with synchrotron X-ray diffraction and X-ray emission spectroscopy. MnP has an exceedingly strong anisotropy in compressibility, with the primary compressible…
This work makes a theoretical study of the dynamics of emergent elemental excitations in artificial spin ice systems with hexagonal geometry during the magnetic reversion of the system. The magnetic and physical parameters of the…
Understanding, creating, and manipulating spin polarization of two-dimensional electron gases at complex oxide interfaces presents an experimental challenge. For example, despite almost a decade long research effort, the microscopic origin…
We introduce an entanglement entropy analysis to quantitatively identify the confinement and deconfinement of the spinons in the spin excitations of quantum magnets. Our proposal is implemented by the parton construction of a…
Ferromagnetic semiconductors discovered in two-dimensional (2D) materials open an avenue for highly integrated and multifunctional spintronics. The Curie temperature (TC) of existed 2D ferromagnetic semiconductors is extremely low and the…
Suspensions of Active Brownian Particles (ABP) undergo motility induced phase separation (MIPS) over a wide range of mean density and activity strength [1], even in the absence of an explicit attraction. Negative values of the mechanical…
Plasmons in two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) strips with grounded electrodes (a gate or side contacts) are investigated. We consider two systems: (a) the 2DEG strip with a highly conducting gate and (b) the 2DEG strip with semi-infinite…
"Spin Ice" is an exotic type of frustrated magnet realized in "pyrochlore" materials Ho_{2}Ti_{2}O_{7}, Dy_{2}Ti_{2}O_{7}, Ho_{2}Sn_{2}O_{7}, etc., in which magnetic atoms (spins) reside on a sublattice made of the vertices of…
We develop a symmetry-controlled theory of anisotropic thermomagnonic torques in insulating altermagnets. We identify a spin-splitter magnonic torque linked to thermally generated, sublattice-odd spin currents and an anisotropic entropic…
Recent experiments on ice formed by water under nanoconfinement provide evidence for a two-dimensional (2D) `square ice' phase. However, the interpretation of the experiments has been questioned and the stability of square ice has become a…
Spin-polarized two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at oxide interfaces is an emerging physical phenomenon, which is technologically important for potential device applications. However, most previous relevant studies only focused on the…
If spin liquids have been famously defined by what they are not, i.e. ordered, the past years have seen the frontier between order and spin liquid starting to fade, with a growing number of materials whose low-temperature physics cannot be…
Spin ice materials, such as Dy2Ti2O7 and Ho2Ti2O7, have been the subject of much interest for over the past fifteen years. Their low temperature strongly correlated state can be mapped onto the proton disordered state of common water ice…
The magnetically frustrated spin ice family of materials is host to numerous exotic phenomena such as magnetic monopole excitations and macroscopic residual entropy extending to low temperature. A finite-temperature ordering transition in…
