Hysteresis without coexistence: disorder-rounded first-order transitions in a van der Waals magnet

Xiaoyu Guo, Abby N. Neill, Christopher M. Pasco +2

Quenched disorder can profoundly modify phase transitions. In low-dimensional systems, theory predicts that even weak quenched disorder can round the thermodynamic discontinuities…

"Extraordinary" Phase Transition Revealed in a van der Waals Antiferromagnet

Xiaoyu Guo, Wenhao Liu, Jonathan Schwartz +12

While the surface-bulk correspondence has been ubiquitously shown in topological phases, the relationship between surface and bulk in Landau-like phases is much less explored. Theo…
