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…
-spacing distributions as a probe of nematoelastic response in iron-based superconductors
Wenting Zhang, Ruixian Liu, Tingjun Zhang +14
Electronic nematicity in iron-based superconductors (FeSCs) couples bilinearly to orthorhombic strain, allowing nematic correlations to appear in the lattice response. Here we use…
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…
Strain-tunable anomalous Hall effect in hexagonal MnTe
Zhaoyu Liu, Sijie Xu, Jonathan M. DeStefano +15
The ability to control and manipulate time-reversal () symmetry-breaking phases with near-zero net magnetization is a sought-after goal in spintronic devices. The recently disco…
Spectroscopic Demarcation of Emergent Photons and Spinons in a Dipolar-Octupolar Quantum Spin Liquid
Bin Gao, Zhengbang Zhou, Tingjun Zhang +4
The identification of fractionalized excitations in quantum spin liquids (QSLs) remains a central challenge in condensed matter physics. In dipolar-octupolar (DO) pyrochlores, such…
Interacting spin and charge density waves in kagome metal FeGe
Mason L. Klemm, Tingjun Zhang, Barry L. Winn +7
Unveiling the interplay between spin density wave (SDW) and charge density wave (CDW) orders in correlated electron materials is important to obtain a comprehensive understanding o…
