Facet-dependent Chemical Kinetics Governed Growth of Twisted Graphene Layers with Pre-designed Angles
Chaowu Xue, Mengzhao Sun, Zixuan Zhou +8
Twisted graphene layers (TGLs) provide a powerful platform for investigating multiple quantum phenomena, yet their scalable deployment is hindered by the lack of reliable synthesis…
Electrically switchable non-relativistic Zeeman spin splittings in collinear antiferromagnets
Longju Yu, Hong Jian Zhao, Laurent Bellaiche +1
Magnetic or electrical manipulation of electronic spin is elementary for spin-based logic, computing, and memory, where the latter is a low-power manipulation scheme. Rashba-like s…
Anomalous Hall effect from nonlinear magnetoelectric coupling
Longju Yu, Hong Jian Zhao, Yurong Yang +2
The anomalous Hall effect (AHE) is a topology-related transport phenomenon being of potential interest in spintronics, because this effect enables the efficient probe of magnetic o…
Theory of polarization-switchable electrical conductivity anisotropy in nonpolar semiconductors
Hong Jian Zhao, Yanchao Wang, Laurent Bellaiche +1
The anisotropic propagation of particles is a fundamental transport phenomenon in solid state physics. As for crystalline semiconductors, the anisotropic charge transport opens nov…
Spin Orientation Driven Polarization in Collinear Magnets
Yixun Zhang, Longju Yu, Yizhou Tong +4
In a collinear magnet, the predominant magnetic moments are collectively aligned along a specific spatial orientation, and this alignment may yield intriguing phenomena such as spi…
The nature of polar distortions in ferroelectrics
Hong Jian Zhao, Laurent Bellaiche, Yanming Ma
Polar distortion, the collective off-center displacements of atoms, is a fingerprint of a ferroelectric that governs its properties and functionalities. Since the 1970s, the concep…
