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…
Understanding multiscale disorder in superconducting nanowire single photon detectors
Nirjhar Sarkar, Ronan Gourgues, Yueh-Chun Wu +7
Superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors are central to applications across quantum information science. Yet, their performance is limited by the effects of disorder and el…
Detecting half-quantum superconducting vortices by spin-qubit relaxometry
Gábor B. Halász, Nirjhar Sarkar, Yueh-Chun Wu +3
Half-quantum vortices in spin-triplet superconductors are predicted to harbor Majorana zero modes and may provide a viable avenue to topological quantum computation. Here, we intro…
Probing the Nanoscale Excitonic Landscape and Quantum Confinement of Excitons in Gated Monolayer Semiconductors
Yueh-Chun Wu, Bogdan Dryzhakov, Huan Zhao +6
Engineering and probing excitonic properties at the nanoscale remains a central challenge in quantum photonics and optoelectronics. While exciton confinement via electrical control…
Programmable phase selection between altermagnetic and non-centrosymmetric polymorphs of MnTe on InP via molecular beam epitaxy
An-Hsi Chen, Parul R. Raghuvanshi, Jacob Cook +19
Phase selecting nearly degenerate crystalline polymorphs during epitaxial growth can be challenging yet is critical to targeting physical properties for specific applications. Here…
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,…
