General ab initio framework for electronic-order-induced lattice-dynamics symmetry breaking

Shuai Zhang, Mengqi Wang, Pan Zhang +1

Conventional \textit{ab initio} approaches are unable to describe phonon time-reversal symmetry () breaking. Here, we develop an \textit{ab initio} framework, grounded…

Ab initio electronic conductivity of Fe-bearing post-perovskite

Yihang Peng, Yupei Zhang, Shuai Zhang +5

The electrical conductivity of high-pressure silicates profoundly influences the interior dynamics of rocky planets. Employing the Kubo-Greenwood formalism, we perform ab initio ca…

Hopper-Like Growth of Higher-Order Topological Insulators

Yutaro Tanaka, Shuai Zhang, Tiantian Zhang +1

Understanding crystal growth and morphology is a fundamental issue in condensed matter physics. While crystal morphology due to the distribution and dynamics of the diffusion field…

Cavity-altered superconductivity

Itai Keren, Tatiana A. Webb, Shuai Zhang +30

Is it feasible to alter the ground state properties of a material by engineering its electromagnetic environment? Inspired by theoretical predictions, experimental realizations of…

Comprehensive Study of Phonon Chirality under Symmetry Constraints

Shuai Zhang, Zhiheng Huang, Muchen Du +3

Phonons are quanta of lattice vibrations, and their modes (linear, circular, or stationary) are symmetry-determined. Circularly polarized phonons, possessing nonzero angular moment…

Magnetic order induced chiral phonons in a ferromagnetic Weyl semimetal

Mengqian Che, Jinxuan Liang, Yunpeng Cui +13

Chiral phonons are vibrational modes in a crystal that possess a well-defined handedness or chirality, typically found in materials that lack inversion symmetry. Here we report the…
