Dynamical Josephson Effect Between a Singlet and a Triplet Superconductor
Morten Amundsen, Niladri Banerjee, Igor Žutić
Phase-sensitive Josephson effect has long been central to identifying unconventional pairing symmetries in superconductors. Although the selection rules governing Josephson junctio…
Supercurrent-Driven Néel Torque in Superconductor/Altermagnet Hybrids
Hamed Vakili, Moaz Ali, Igor Žutić +1
We predict a supercurrent-driven Néel spin-orbit torque in a superconductor/-wave altermagnet heterostructure, associated with the emergence of spin-triplet correlations. The ef…
Valleytronics in 2D Materials Roadmap
Kyle L. Seyler, Giancarlo Soavi, Bent Weber +30
Valleytronics exploits non-equivalent energy extrema in the electronic band structure of crystalline solids -- the valley degree of freedom -- to encode, manipulate, and read out i…
The birefringent spin-laser as a system of coupled harmonic oscillators
Velimir Labinac, Jiayu David Cao, Gaofeng Xu +1
Adding spin-polarized carriers to semiconductor lasers strongly changes their properties and, through the transfer of angular momentum, leads to the emission of circularly polarize…
Phenomenological Theory of the Supercurrent Diode Effect: The Lifshitz Invariant
Denis Kochan, Andreas Costa, Iaroslav Zhumagulov +1
Nonreciprocal phenomena in the normal state are well established and key to many commercial applications. In contrast, superconducting analogs, such as the superconducting diode ef…
Superconductor/Ferromagnet Heterostructures: A Platform for Superconducting Spintronics and Quantum Computation
Ranran Cai, Igor Žutić, Wei Han
The interplay between superconductivity and ferromagnetism in the superconductor/ferromagnet (SC/FM) heterostructures generates many interesting physical phenomena, including spin-…
Colloquium: Spin-orbit effects in superconducting hybrid structures
Morten Amundsen, Jacob Linder, Jason W. A. Robinson +2
Spin-orbit coupling (SOC) relates to the interaction between an electron's motion and its spin, and is ubiquitous in solid-state systems. Although the effect of SOC in normal-state…
Enhanced spin-triplet pairing in magnetic junctions with s-wave superconductors
Thomas Vezin, Chenghao Shen, Jong E. Han +1
A common path to superconducting spintronics, Majorana fermions, and topologically-protected quantum computing relies on spin-triplet superconductivity. While naturally occurring s…
Intervalley plasmons in crystals
Dinh Van Tuan, Benedikt Scharf, Igor Žutić +1
Collective charge excitations in solids have been the subject of intense research ever since the pioneering works of Bohm and Pines in the 1950s. Most of these studies focused on l…
Optical control of carrier wavefunction in magnetic quantum dots
P. Zhang, T. Norden, J. M. Pientka +10
Spatially indirect Type-II band alignment in magnetically-doped quantum dot (QD) structures provides unexplored opportunities to control the magnetic interaction between carrier wa…
Killing Auger recombination in nanostructures by carrier spin polarization
Alexander Khaetskii, Igor Žutić
In semiconductor nanostructures nonradiative Auger recombination is enhanced by the presence of boundaries which relax the momentum conservation and thereby removes the threshold r…
Probing topological transitions in HgTe/CdTe quantum wells by magneto-optical measurements
Benedikt Scharf, Alex Matos-Abiague, Igor Žutić +1
In two-dimensional topological insulators, such as inverted HgTe/CdTe quantum wells, helical quantum spin Hall (QSH) states persist even at finite magnetic fields below a critical…
Reentrant Formation of Magnetic Polarons in Quantum Dots
J. M. Pientka, R. Oszwałdowski, A. G. Petukhov +2
We propose a model of magnetic polaron formation in semiconductor quantum dots doped with magnetic ions. A wetting layer serves as a reservoir of photo-generated holes, which can b…
Spin ordering in magnetic quantum dots: From core-halo to Wigner molecules
R. Oszwałdowski, P. Stano, A. G. Petukhov +1
The interplay of confinement and Coulomb interactions in quantum dots can lead to strongly correlated phases differing qualitatively from the Fermi liquid behavior. We explore how…
