Anomalous magneto-optical response at van der Waals interface

Muhammad Hassan Shaikh, Abhijith Puthiya Veettil, Collin Maurtua +9

Ruthenium dioxide () has been proposed as an altermagnetic candidate, although its magnetic ground state remains controversial. Here, we probe weak interfacial magn…

Strong electron correlations and ligand hybridization for altermagnetism

Byungkyun Kang, Anderson Janotti, Dai Q. Ho +5

Spin-band splitting is a hallmark of altermagnetism, intrinsically linked to magnetic ordering driven by electron correlations. However, recent inconsistencies in the detection of…

Resonance-enhanced super-superexchange yields giant chiral magnon splitting in rutile altermagnets

Dai Q. Ho, D. Quang To, Byungkyun Kang +3

Altermagnets host momentum-selective spin splitting and chiral-split magnonic excitations despite vanishing net magnetization, enabling spin transport without ferromagnetism. In ru…

Effects of uniaxial strain on monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides revisited

Igor Evangelista, Abdul Saboor, Muhammad Zubair +6

Using hybrid density functional calculations including spin-orbit coupling, we compute the strain evolution of the band structure of monolayer 1H-phase transition-metal dichalcogen…

Quantum geometric origins of the orbital degrees of freedom of hybrid bosonic quasiparticles in magnetic systems

D. Quang To, Dai Q. Ho, Joshua M. O. Zide +5

The orbital degree of freedom has recently attracted significant attention due to the novel phenomena it enables in condensed matter systems. However, the interpretation of the orb…

Probing Magnetic Properties of RuO Heterostructures Through the Ferromagnetic Layer

Frank M. Abel, Subhash Bhatt, Shelby S. Fields +20

RuO has been proposed as the prototypical altermagnetic material. However, several reports have recently questioned its intrinsic magnetic ordering, leading to conflicting fi…
