We propose a new mechanism to produce a meron-antimeron pair in a two dimensional antiferromagnet with an ultrafast laser pulse via thermal Schwinger mechanism. Unlike ultrafast skyrmion nucleation, this process conserves total topological…
Emergent quasiparticles in solids often exhibit unique topological properties as a result of the complex interplay between charge, orbital, spin and lattice degrees of freedom. Among these quasiparticles, the polaron occupies a special…
Quantum nonlinear optics is a quickly growing field with large technological promise, at the same time involving complex and novel many-body phenomena. In the usual scenario, optical nonlinearities originate from the interactions between…
Topological quasiparticles, including skyrmions and merons, are topological textures with sophisticated vectorial structures that can be used for high-density information storage, precision metrology, position sensing, etc. Here, we…
Photonic skyrmion and meron lattices are structured light fields with topologically protected textures, analogous to magnetic skyrmions and merons. Here, we report the theoretical existence of mixed skyrmion and meron quasicrystals in an…
Topological defects are central to modern physics, from spintronics to photonics, due to their robustness and potential application in information processing. In this work, we discuss topological point defects that spontaneously emerge at…
The generation of topologically non-trivial magnetic configurations has been a pivotal topic in both basic and applied nanomagnetism research. Localized non-coplanar magnetic defects such as skyrmions or merons were found to interact…
Synthetic antiferromagnets offer a robust platform for stabilizing fractional topological textures, effectively circumventing the limitations of ferromagnetic systems. In this study, we utilize large-scale Monte Carlo simulations to…
Creation and control of topological complex excitations play crucial roles in both fundamental physics and modern information science. Torons are a sophisticated class of 3D chiral polar topological structures with both skyrmionic…
Skyrmions are topological defects belonging to nontrivial homotopy classes in particle theory. Their remarkably stable topology has recently been observed in electromagnetic waves. For the evanescent fields near a surface, this has been…
Collective modes are a defining signature of coupled degrees of freedom, forming a bridge between understanding of interactions in condensed-matter systems and emergent functionality. Topological magnetic textures provide a natural platform…
Topological quasiparticles such as skyrmions and merons have recently attracted enormous attentions in the form of diverse optical degrees of freedom. However, these structures have not been explored in the fundamental momentum vectors of…
The recent experimental confirmation of a transformation between meron and skyrmion topological spin textures in the chiral magnet Co$_8$Zn$_9$Mn$_3$ [S.-Z. Lin et al., Phys. Rev. B 91, 224407 (2015); X. Z. Yu et al., Nature 564, 95 (2018)]…
Topological semimetals have energy bands near the Fermi energy sticking together at isolated points/lines/planes in the momentum space, which are often accompanied by stable surface states and intriguing bulk topological responses. Although…
In O($N$) non-linear $\sigma$-models on the lattice, the Wolff cluster algorithm is based on rewriting the functional integral in terms of mutually independent clusters. Through improved estimators, the clusters are directly related to…
The ever-growing demand for device miniaturization and energy efficiency in data storage and computing technology has prompted a shift towards antiferromagnetic (AFM) topological spin textures as information carriers, owing to their…
Discrete symmetries are spatially ubiquitous but are often hidden in internal states of systems where they can have especially profound consequences. In this work we create and verify exotic magnetic phases of atomic spinor Bose-Einstein…
Spin textures with nontrivial topology hold great promise in future spintronics applications since they are robust against local deformations. The meron, as one of such spin textures, is widely believed to appear in pairs due to its…
We introduce quasi-symmetry groups in optics emerging from the commutation between mirror operation and the spin-orbit interaction (SOI) of light. Contrary to the principle of symmetry inheritance in free-space optics, where the symmetry of…
Chiral symmetry breaking in magnetic thin films stabilizes new families of topological solitons that are absent in conventional anisotropic ferromagnets. Beyond the classical chiral skyrmion, which arises in uniaxial systems through the…
