Spin-lattice entanglement in

Thuc T. Mai, Amber McCreary, K. F. Garrity +12

Complex chalcogenides in the PS family of materials ( = Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni) display remarkably different phase progressions depending upon the metal center orbital fillin…

Giant Modulation of Refractive Index from Picoscale Atomic Displacements

Boyang Zhao, Guodong Ren, Hongyan Mei +21

Structural disorder has been shown to enhance and modulate magnetic, electrical, dipolar, electrochemical, and mechanical properties of materials. However, the possibility of obtai…

Colossal optical anisotropy from atomic-scale modulations

Hongyan Mei, Guodong Ren, Boyang Zhao +17

In modern optics, materials with large birefringence (Δn, where n is the refractive index) are sought after for polarization control (e.g. in wave plates, polarizing beam splitters…

Direct visualization of magnetic correlations in frustrated spinel ZnFeO

Jonas Ruby Sandemann, Thomas Bjørn Egede Grønbech, Kristoffer Andreas Holm Støckler +3

Magnetic materials with the spinel structure (ABO) form the core of numerous magnetic devices, but ZnFeO constitutes a peculiar example where the nature…

Unconventional Charge-density-wave Order in a Dilute d-band Semiconductor

Huandong Chen, Batyr Ilyas, Boyang Zhao +27

Electron-lattice coupling effects in low dimensional materials give rise to charge density wave (CDW) order and phase transitions. These phenomena are critical ingredients for supe…

A catastrophic charge density wave in BaFeAl

William R. Meier, Bryan C. Chakoumakos, Satoshi Okamoto +8

Charge density waves (CDW) are modulations of the electron density and the atomic lattice that develop in some crystalline materials at low temperature. We report an unusual exampl…
