Enhancement of vibrationally assisted energy transfer by proximity to exceptional points, probed by fluorescence-detected vibrational spectroscopy

Kavli Affiliate: Birgitta Whaley | First 5 Authors: Zeng-Zhao Li, K. Birgitta Whaley, , , | Summary: Emulation of energy transfer processes in natural systems on quantum platforms can further our understanding of complex dynamics in nature. One notable example is the demonstration of vibrationally assisted energy transfer (VAET) on a trapped-ion quantum emulator, which […]

Optical absorption spectra of metal oxides from time-dependent density functional theory and many-body perturbation theory based on optimally-tuned hybrid functionals

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Guy Ohad, Stephen E. Gant, Dahvyd Wing, Jonah B. Haber, María Camarasa-Gómez | Summary: Using both time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and the “single-shot" $GW$ plus Bethe-Salpeter equation ($GW$-BSE) approach, we compute optical band gaps and optical absorption spectra from first principles for eight common binary […]

Topological synchronization of fractionalized spins

Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Christopher W. Wächtler, Joel E. Moore, , , | Summary: The gapped symmetric phase of the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) model exhibits fractionalized spins at the ends of an open chain. We show that breaking SU(2) symmetry and applying a global spin-lowering dissipator achieves synchronization of these fractionalized […]

Three-dimensional imaging of embedded interfaces with multislice ptychography

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Zettl | First 5 Authors: Colum M. O’Leary, Jianhua Zhang, Cong Su, Salman Kahn, Huaidong Jiang | Summary: We demonstrate the application of multislice ptychography to a twisted hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) heterointerface from a single-view data set. The propagation from the top flake, through the interface, to the bottom flake is […]

Three-dimensional imaging of buried heterointerfaces

Kavli Affiliate: Alex Zettl | First 5 Authors: Colum M. O’Leary, Haozhi Sha, Jianhua Zhang, Cong Su, Salman Kahn | Summary: We report three-dimensional (3D) structure determination of a twisted hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) heterointerface from a single-view data set using multislice ptychography. We identify the buried heterointerface between two twisted h-BN flakes with a […]
