Strain patterning of flexomagnetism
Tamalika Samanta, Zachary T. LaDuca, An-Hsi Chen +15
Flexomagnetism, the coupling of magnetic ordering to strain gradients, provides access to novel symmetry-broken magnetic phases that cannot be accessed via uniform strain. However,…
Nucleation and Antiphase Twin Control in BiSe via Step-Terminated AlO Substrates
Alessandro R. Mazza, Jia Shi, Gabriel A. Vázquez-Lizardi +18
The epitaxial synthesis of high-quality 2D layered materials is an essential driver of both fundamental physics studies and technological applications. BiSe, a prototypical…
Nanosculpting lateral weak link junctions in superconducting Fe(Te,Se)/Bi2Te3 with focused Si++ ions and implications on vortex pinning
Debarghya Mallick, Sujoy Ghosh, An Hsi Chen +10
Superconductor-normal-superconductor (SC-N-SC) weak links enable Cooper-pair tunneling and serve as Josephson junctions (JJs) used in modern superconducting qubits. Conventional JJ…
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…
