EXPERIMENTAL OBSERVATION OF REPULSIVELY BOUND MAGNONS
Sergei Zvyagin, HLD. The importance of attractive forces, stabilizing multi-particle bound states in condensed matter is generally accepted. By contrast, multiparticle bound states stabilized by means of repulsive forces were long thought to be only theoretical constructions, due to the [...]
CHARGE ORDER NEAR THE ANTIFERROMAGNETIC QUANTUM CRITICAL POINT IN THE TRILAYER HIGH-TC CUPRATE HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ
V. Oliviero, D. Vignolles, C. Proust, LNCMI Toulouse, W. A. Atkinson, Trent University, Canada. The ubiquity of the interplay between antiferromagnetic (AFM) order, charge density waves (CDWs), and superconductivity is a general feature of hole-doped cuprates. The role of AFM [...]
STRETCHED AND COMPRESSED – QUANTUM MATERIALS UNDER EXTREME CONDITIONS
J. F. Linnartz, A. Kool, S. Wiedmann, HFML Nijmegen and IMM Radboud. Quantum materials often exhibit remarkable sensitivity to subtle changes in their physical environment, a feature that can unlock new functionalities and drive innovative applications. One key phenomenon is [...]
OPTICAL READOUT OF SINGLE-MOLECULEMAGNETS MAGNETIC MEMORIES WITH UNPOLARIZED LIGHT
Cyrille Train and Matteo Atzori, LNCMI-Grenoble. Magnetic materials are widely used for many technologies in areas such as energy, health, transportation, computation, and data storage. For the latter, the readout of the magnetic state of a medium is crucial. Optical [...]
QUANTUM INTERFERENCE BETWEEN QUASI-2D FERMI-SURFACE SHEETS IN UTe2
Alex Eaton, University of Cambridge, UK and Yurii Skourski, HLD. Scientists from the UK, USA, Czech Republic, and Germany have studied the Fermi surface of the heavy-fermion superconductor UTe2. This material is of particular interest given its high likelihood of [...]
POSSIBLE METAMAGNETISM IN THE HIGHPRESSURE TETRAGONAL PHASE OF UTe2
Tristan Thebault, William Knafo, LNCMI Toulouse, Daniel Braithwaite, Gérard Lapertot, Georg Knebel, CEA-Grenoble, and Dai Aoki, Tohoku University. The interplay between magnetism and unconventional superconductivity in UTe2 was extensively studied in the past few years. Multiple superconducting phases were found [...]

Y. Tokunaga, Japan Atomic Energy Agency, Tokai, Japan, M. Horvatić and Steffen Krämer, LNCMI Grenoble. The uranium-based superconductor UTe2 provides an attractive platform for studying the novel physics of spin-triplet and topological superconductivity in bulk materials. Resistivity measurements performed in 2019 [...]
QUANTUM HALL EFFECT IN InAsSb QUANTUM WELLS AT ELEVATED TEMPERATURES
Maurice Bal, HFML Nijmegen. Since its discovery in 1980 by von Klitzing et al., the quantum Hall effect (QHE) has been measured in many different 2D systems, mainly at cryogenic temperatures. Currently, graphene is the only material that displays the [...]
POSSIBLE ORIGIN OF HIGH-FIELD REENTRANT SUPERCONDUCTIVITY IN UTe2
Toni Helm, HLD. The recent discovery of superconductivity (SC) in the heavy-fermion metal UTe2 with a critical temperature of about 2 K triggered much excitement, as its critical field reaches values approaching those of high-Tc superconductors. Moreover, UTe2 appeared very [...]
