Slow Thermalization and Long-Lived Coherence across Acoustic Phonon Branches in BAs

Zeyu Xiang, Ying Peng, Ange Benise Niyikiza +11

The exceptionally high thermal conductivity of cubic boron arsenide (BAs) arises from suppressed three-phonon scattering associated with its large acoustic--optical gap. In this re…

Magnetic Polarons Enable Exceptional Magnetocaloric Response

Joshua Ancheta, Caeli Benyacko, Fanghao Zhang +2

Magnetocaloric materials are typically limited by a trade-off between magnetic entropy and field responsiveness. Here we show that magnetic polarons provide an intermediate regime…

Reversible Modulation of Thermal Conductivity in GaN through Strain-Field Screening around Dislocations

Shantal Adajian, Fanghao Zhang, Andrew Christison +9

Crystalline defects are generally regarded as static phonon scatterers that irreversibly suppress thermal transport. Here we show that elastic strain can reversibly modify dislocat…

Coupled Spin-lattice Dynamics across a Magnetostructural Phase Transition

Lokanath Patra, Zeyu Xiang, Yubi Chen +1

First-order magnetostructural phase transitions underpin giant magnetocaloric effects, yet the microscopic role of lattice dynamics in these transitions remains controversial. Here…

Electric-Field-Dependent Thermal Conductivity in Fresh and Aged Bulk Single Crystalline

Fanghao Zhang, Guanchun Rui, Yujie Quan +4

Active thermal management requires advances in thermal switching materials, whose thermal conductivity responds to external stimuli. The electric field, as one of the most convenie…

Lessons from -RuCl3 for pursuing quantum spin liquid physics in atomically thin materials

Claudia Ojeda-Aristizabal, Xiaohu Zheng, Changsong Xu +20

Quantum spin liquids can arise from Kitaev magnetic interactions, and exhibit fractionalized excitations with the potential for a topological form of quantum computation. This revi…
