Altermagnetic Proximity Effect
Ziye Zhu, Richang Huang, Xianzhang Chen +5
Proximity effects not only complement the conventional methods of designing materials, but also enable realizing properties that are not present in any constituent region of the co…
Altermagnets Enable Gate-Switchable Helical and Chiral Topological Transport with Spin-Valley-Momentum-Locked Dual Protection
Xianzhang Chen, Jiayong Zhang, Bowen Hao +5
We establish a unified, symmetry-driven framework that combines the alternating spin splitting of altermagnets with valley topology to realize and electrically interconvert helical…
Towards Scalable Braiding: Topological Superconductivity Unlocked under Arbitrary Magnetic Field Directions in Curved Planar Josephson Junctions
Richang Huang, Yongliang Hu, Xianzhang Chen +4
The non-Abelian statistics of Majorana zero modes (MZMs) are central to fault-tolerant topological quantum computing. Planar Josephson junctions provide a particularly versatile pl…
Symmetry-Driven Unconventional Magnetoelectric Coupling in Perovskite Altermagnets: From Bulk to the Two-Dimensional Limit
Zhou Cui, Ziye Zhu, Xunkai Duan +4
The emergence of altermagnets establishes a new paradigm for multiferroics. Unlike conventional multiferroics relying on direct magnetoelectric coupling, multiferroic altermagnets…
Altermagnetoelectric Spin Field Effect Transistor
Ziye Zhu, Xianzhang Chen, Xunkai Duan +4
Spin field-effect transistors (SFETs) are promising candidates for low-power spin-based electronics, yet existing realizations that rely on spin-orbit coupling are constrained by l…
