Space-time symmetry breaking in nonequilibrium frustrated magnetism
arXiv:2209.14578 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.107.094313
Abstract
Spontaneous symmetry breaking is responsible for the rich phenomena in equilibrium physics. Driving a system out-of-equilibrium can significantly enrich the possibility of spontaneous symmetry breaking, which occurs not only in space, but also in time domain. This study investigates a driven-dissipative frustrated magnetic system. Results show that frustration in such a far-from-equilibrium system could lead to a wealth of intriguing non-equilibrium phases with intertwined space-time symmetry breaking, (e.g.) a discrete time crystal phase accompanied by a time-dependent spatial order oscillating between a long-range tripartite stripe and a short-range ferromagnetic order.
