Quantum critical behavior of cuprate superconductors observed by inelastic X-ray scattering
H. Y. Huang, C. Y. Mou, A. Singh +7
Progress toward a complete understanding of cuprate superconductors has been hindered by their intricate phase diagram, potentially linked to a quantum critical point (QCP). Howeve…

Non-reciprocal circular dichroism of axial phonons coupled to ferro-rotational order
H. Y. Huang, G. Channagowdra, D. Banerjee +10
Circular dichroism (CD) in X-ray absorption, defined as the difference in absorption between opposite circular polarizations, is fundamentally enabled by the breaking of time-rever…

Altermagnetic boosting of chiral phonons
J. Okamoto, C. Y. Mou, H. Y. Huang +10
Chirality characterizes the asymmetry between a structure and its mirror image and underlies a wide range of chiral functionalities. In crystallographically chiral materials, phono…
