Correlated topological-polarization surface states in the narrow-gap insulator FeSb2
Takahiro Iwagaki, Hideki Matsuoka, Ginta Hoshino +7
Strong electron correlations and band topology each generate rich quantum phases, but conflicting elemental requirements have largely kept them apart. Topological polarization offe…
Experimental quantification of electronic symmetry breaking through orbital hybridization phase
Shungo Aoyagi, Shunsuke Kitou, Yuiga Nakamura +2
Symmetry classification of crystal structures has been central to predicting physical properties of materials. While such structural classification identifies which physical respon…
Control of helix orientation in chiral magnets via lateral confinement
Maurice Colling, Mariia Stepanova, Mario Hentschel +7
Helimagnetic materials offer a versatile platform for spin-based device concepts owing to their long-range, tunable spiral order. Here, we demonstrate controlled manipulation of th…
Emergent Cooperative Superstructures via Order-Disorder Kinetics in Molecule-Intercalated NbSe2
Taiga Ueda, Hideki Matsuoka, Shungo Aoyagi +12
The design of quantum states at heterointerfaces has enabled a variety of emergent phenomena. Among them, molecular intercalation superlattices have attracted attention as tunable…
Two-dimensional superconducting diode effect in topological insulator/superconductor heterostructure
Soma Nagahama, Yuki Sato, Minoru Kawamura +7
The superconducting diode effect (SDE) is characterized by the nonreciprocity of Cooper-pair motion with respect to current direction. In three-dimensional (3D) materials, SDE resu…
Higher-order epitaxy: A pathway to suppressing structural instability and emergent superconductivity
Yuki Sato, Soma Nagahama, Shunsuke Kitou +11
Molecular beam epitaxy enables the growth of thin film materials with novel properties and functionalities. Typically, the lattice constants of films and substrates are designed to…
