Manipulation of spin orientation via ferroelectric switching in Fe-doped Bi2WO6 from first principles
Katherine Inzani, Nabaraj Pokhrel, Nima Leclerc +4
Atomic-scale control of spins by electric fields is highly desirable for future technological applications. Magnetically-doped Aurivillius-phase oxides present one route to achieve…
Microscopic Theory of Magnetic Disorder-Induced Decoherence in Superconducting Nb Films
Evan Sheridan, Thomas F. Harrelson, Eric Sivonxay +6
The performance of superconducting qubits is orders of magnitude below what is expected from theoretical estimates based on the loss tangents of the constituent bulk materials. Thi…
Elucidating the local atomic and electronic structure of amorphous oxidized superconducting niobium films
Thomas F. Harrelson, Evan Sheridan, Ellis Kennedy +8
Qubits made from superconducting materials are a mature platform for quantum information science application such as quantum computing. However, materials-based losses are now a li…
Theoretical investigation of decoherence channels in athermal phonon sensors
Thomas F. Harrelson, Ibrahim Hajar, Omar A. Ashour +1
The creation and evolution of nonequilibrium phonons is central in applications ranging from cosmological particle searches to decoherence processes in qubits. However, the fundame…
Extended Calculation of Dark Matter-Electron Scattering in Crystal Targets
Sinéad M. Griffin, Katherine Inzani, Tanner Trickle +2
We extend the calculation of dark matter direct detection rates via electronic transitions in general dielectric crystal targets, combining state-of-the-art density functional theo…
Axion-matter coupling in multiferroics
Henrik S. Røising, Benjo Fraser, Sinéad M. Griffin +4
Multiferroics (MFs) are materials with two or more ferroic orders, like spontaneous ferroelectric and ferromagnetic polarizations. Such materials can exhibit a magnetoelectric effe…
