Orbital-selective oxygen holes in cuprate ladders beyond the Zhang-Rice paradigm

Chengyun Hua, Tianran Chen, Isaac C. Ownby +13

The electronic structure of the spin-ladder cuprate Sr14Cu24O41 challenges the presumed universality of the Zhang-Rice singlet (ZRS) framework and models based exclusively on Cu-O…

Winding feature and thermal evolution of the Dirac magnons in CrI

Weiliang Yao, Matthew B. Stone, Colin L. Sarkis +4

Two-dimensional honeycomb lattice ferromagnet chromium tri-iodide (CrI) has attracted tremendous interest because it retains ferromagnetism down to the monolayer limit and host…

Benchmarking quantum simulation with neutron-scattering experiments

Yi-Ting Lee, Keerthi Kumaran, Bibek Pokharel +7

Realistic simulation of quantum materials is a central goal of quantum computation. Although quantum processors have advanced rapidly in scale and fidelity, it has remained unclear…

Field-direction sensitivity of Kondo hybridization in UTe

Thomas Halloran, Gicela Saucedo Salas, Sylvia K. Lewin +6

Neutron scattering experiments on the spin-triplet superconductor UTe have established that the dominant low-energy magnetic response is along Brillouin zone boundaries, resemb…
