A Route to Nonrelativistic Altermagnetic Spin Splitting via Ultrafast Light

Huang-Zhao-Xiang Chen, Lin-Ding Yuan, Wen-Hao Liu +3

We identify a nonequilibrium route for generating altermagnetic spin splitting in antiferromagnet by ultrafast light. Unlike existing strategies, this route does not require relati…

Matter with apparent and hidden spin physics

Jia-Xin Xiong, Xiuwen Zhang, Lin-Ding Yuan +1

Materials with interesting physical properties are often designed based on our understanding of the target physical effects. The physical properties can be either explicitly observ…

Non-relativistic spin splitting in compensated magnets that are not altermagnets

Lin-Ding Yuan, Alexandru B. Georgescu, James M. Rondinelli

The non-relativistic spin-splitting (NRSS) of electronic bands in "altermagnets" has sparked renewed interest in antiferromagnets (AFMs) that have no net magnetization. However, al…

Uncovering hidden spin polarization of energy bands in antiferromagnets

Lin-Ding Yuan, Xiuwen Zhang, Carlos Mera +1

Many textbook physical effects in crystals are enabled by some specific symmetries. In contrast to such "apparent effects", "hidden effect X" refers to the general condition where…

Degeneracy removal of spin bands in antiferromagnets with non-interconvertible spin motif pair

Lin-Ding Yuan, Alex Zunger

Energy bands in antiferromagnets are generally spin degenerate in the absence of spin-orbit coupling (SOC). Recent studies [Physical Review B 102, 014422 (2020)] identified formal…

Strong influence of non-magnetic ligands on the momentum dependent spin splitting in antiferromagnets

Lin-Ding Yuan, Zhi Wang, Jun-Wie Luo +1

Recent studies have shown that the non-relativistic antiferromagnetic ordering could generate momentum-dependent spin splitting analogous to the Rashba effect, but free from the re…

The different shapes of spin textures as a journey through Brillouin zone chiral and polar symmetries

Carlos Mera Acosta, Linding Yuan, Gustavo M. Dalpian +1

Crystallographic space group symmetry (CPGS) such as polar and nonpolar crystal classes have long been known to classify compounds that have spin-orbit-induced spin splitting. Whil…

Prediction of low-Z collinear and noncollinear antiferromagnetic compounds having momentum-dependent spin splitting even without spin-orbit coupling

Lin-Ding Yuan, Zhi Wang, Jun-Wei Luo +1

Recent study (Yuan et. al., Phys. Rev. B 102, 014422 (2020)) revealed a SOC-independent spin splitting and spin polarization effect induced by antiferromagnetic ordering which do n…

Giant momentum-dependent spin splitting in centrosymmetric low Z antiferromagnets

Lin-Ding Yuan, Zhi Wang, Jun-Wei Luo +2

The energy vs. crystal momentum E(k) diagram for a solid (band structure) constitutes the road map for navigating its optical, magnetic, and transport properties. By selecting crys…

Uncovering and tailoring hidden Rashba spin-orbit splitting in centrosymmetric crystals

Linding Yuan, Qihang Liu, Xiuwen Zhang +3

Hidden Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-splittings in centrosymmetric crystals with subunits (sectors) having non-centrosymmetric symmetries (the R-2 and D-2 effects) have been predicte…

Unified theory of the direct or indirect bandgap nature of conventional semiconductors

Lin-Ding Yuan, Hui-Xiong Deng, Shu-Shen Li +2

Although the direct or indirect nature of the bandgap transition is an essential parameter of semiconductors for optoelectronic applications, the understanding why some of the conv…
