Thermodynamics and elasticity of emergent crystals
Yangfan Hu, Xuejin Wan
Periodic field patterns of atoms and their charges/spins/orbits emerge in crystals, forming novel states of matter called emergent crystals (ECs). In recent years, they are observe…
Lagrangian formulation for emergent elastic waves in magnetic emergent crystals
Yangfan Hu
Magnetic emergent crystals are periodic alignment of "particle-like" spin textures that emerge in magnets. Instead of focusing on an individual spin or a macroscopic magnetization…
Long-wavelength emergent phonons in skyrmion crystals distorted by exchange anisotropy and tilted magnetic fields
Yangfan Hu
Skyrmion crystals (SkX) are periodic alignment of magnetic skyrmions, i.e., a type of topologically protected spin textures. Compared with ordinary crystals, they can be drasticall…
Emergent elastic waves in skyrmion crystals with finite frequencies at long wavelength limit
Yangfan Hu
A fundamental fact in solids is that the frequencies of elastic waves vanish as the wave number approaches zero\cite{6}. Here we theoretically show that this fact is overturned whe…
Nonlinear emergent elasticity and structural transitions of skyrmion crystal under uniaxial distortion
Yangfan Hu, Xiaoming Lan, Biao Wang
Emergent crystals are periodic alignment of "emergent particles", i.e., localized collective behavior of atoms or their charges/spins/orbits. These novel states of matter, widely o…
Nature of Spontaneous Curvature in Suspended Graphene
Yangfan Hu
The nature of its intrinsic ripples is the key factor for understanding the stability of suspended graphene, and for unraveling the long-standing theoretical debate of the existenc…
