Engineering a driven-dissipative bath of altermagnetic quantum magnons for controlling classical dynamics of spins hosting spin waves, domain walls, or skyrmions

Felipe Reyes-Osorio, Branislav K. Nikolic

Using Schwinger-Keldysh field theory (SKFT), we engineer a dissipative and driven (i.e., out of equilibrium) bosonic bath acting on classical localized spins within a ferromagnetic…

Fate of entanglement in open quantum spin liquid: Time evolution of its genuine multipartite negativity upon sudden coupling to a dissipative bosonic environment

Federico Garcia-Gaitan, Branislav K. Nikolic

Many-body entanglement properties of quantum spin liquids (QSLs), persisting at arbitrarily long distances, have been intensely explored over the past two decades, but mostly for Q…

Computational quantum transport: a scattering approach perspective

Xavier Waintal, Michael Wimmer, Anton Akhmerov +5

This review is devoted to the different techniques that have been developed to compute the phase-coherent transport properties of quantum nanoelectronic systems connected to electr…

Ultrafast optical excitation of magnons in 2D antiferromagnetic semiconductors via spin torque mediated by unbound electron-hole pairs and excitons: Signatures in magnonic charge pumping

Jalil Varela-Manjarres, Yafei Ren, Branislav K. Nikolic

Recent experiments observing how femtosecond laser pulse (fsLP) excites magnons in two-dimensional (2D) antiferromagnetic (AF) semiconductors -- such as CrSBr, NiPS, and MnPS$_…

Optically induced magnetic inertia and magnons from non-Markovian extension of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation

Felipe Reyes-Osorio, Branislav K. Nikolic

The Landau-Lisfhitz-Gilbert (LLG) equation has been the cornerstone of modeling the dynamics of localized spins, viewed as classical vectors of fixed length, within nonequilibrium…

Schwinger-Keldysh non-perturbative field theory of open quantum systems beyond the Markovian regime: Application to spin-boson and spin-chain-boson models

Felipe Reyes-Osorio, Federico Garcia-Gaitan, David J. Strachan +3

We develop a unified framework for open quantum systems composed of many mutually interacting quantum spins, or any isomorphic systems like qubits and qudits, surrounded by one or…
