Probing Boron Vacancy Defects in hBN via Single Spin Relaxometry

Alex L. Melendez, Ruotian Gong, Guanghui He +14

Spin defects in solids offer promising platforms for quantum sensing and memory due to their long coherence times and optical addressability. Here, we integrate a single nitrogen-v…

Raman Fingerprints of Phase Transitions and Ferroic Couplings in Van der Waals Material CuCrPS

Jing Tang, Benjamin J Lawrie, Mouyang Cheng +9

CuCrPS (CCPS), a type-II multiferroic material, exhibits unique phase transitions involving ferroelectric, antiferroelectric, and antiferromagnetic ordering. In this study,…
