Spin nematic liquid crystal and scalar spin chirality in tetragonal lattice YbMnBi
Yaofeng Xie, Sijie Xu, Yu Pan +22
A spin nematic order, analogous to the nematic liquid crystal, characterizes the spontaneous breaking of spin-space rotational symmetry while preserving time-reversal () symmetr…
Atomic-Scale Observation of Symmetry Breaking in Altermagnetic MnTe
Guodong Ren, Jonathan M. DeStefano, Xiao-Wei Zhang +20
The recent discovery of altermagnetism has sparked growing interest in compensated magnetic systems as promising platforms for highly scalable spintronics. Altermagnetism is a dist…
Evidence for itinerant electron-local moment interaction in Li-doped -MnTe
Tingjun Zhang, Steven J. Gomez Alvarado, Sijie Xu +17
We use inelastic neutron scattering (INS) and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) to study the impact of Li doping on the semiconducting altermagnet -MnTe. Introd…
Magnetic field-induced momentum-dependent symmetry breaking in a kagome superconductor
Jianwei Huang, Zheng Ren, Hengxin Tan +17
When multiple degrees of freedom share similar energy scales in quantum materials, intertwined electronic orders, which exhibit broken symmetries, are often strongly coupled. Recen…
Dichotomy of flat bands in the van der Waals ferromagnet FeGeTe
Han Wu, Jianwei Huang, Chaowei Hu +28
Quantum materials with bands of narrow bandwidth near the Fermi level represent a promising platform for exploring a diverse range of fascinating physical phenomena, as the high de…
Magnetism of kagome metals studied by SR
Yipeng Cai, Sungwon Yoon, Qi Sheng +17
We study the magnetic properties of the metallic kagome system by a combination of Muon Spin Relaxation ($μ\mathrm{SR}…
