Kavli Affiliate: Eliska Greplova | First 5 Authors: Guliuxin Jin, D. O. Oriekhov, Lukas Johannes Splitthoff, Eliska Greplova, | Summary: Topological phases of matter have been widely studied for their robustness against impurities and disorder. The broad applicability of topological materials relies on the reliable transition from idealized, mathematically perfect models to finite, real-world implementations. […]

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Takashi Kobayashi, Akito Noiri, Takashi Nakajima, Kenta Takeda, Leon C. Camenzind | Summary: An electron confined by a semiconductor quantum dot (QD) can be displaced by changes in electron occupations of surrounding QDs owing to the Coulomb interaction. For a single-spin qubit in an inhomogeneous magnetic field, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Toeno Van Der Sar | First 5 Authors: Samuel Mañas-Valero, Toeno van der Sar, Rembert A. Duine, Bart van Wees, | Summary: Spintronics is concerned with replacing charge current with current of spin, the electron’s intrinsic angular momentum. In magnetic insulators, spin currents are carried by magnons, the quanta of spin-wave excitations on […]

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Anantha S. Rao, Donovan Buterakos, Barnaby van Straaten, Valentin John, Cécile X. Yu | Summary: Arrays of gate-defined semiconductor quantum dots are among the leading candidates for building scalable quantum processors. High-fidelity initialization, control, and readout of spin qubit registers require exquisite and targeted control over key […]

Kavli Affiliate: Menno Veldhorst | First 5 Authors: Lucas E. A. Stehouwer, Cécile X. Yu, Barnaby van Straaten, Alberto Tosato, Valentin John | Summary: Disorder in the heterogeneous material stack of semiconductor spin qubit systems introduces noise that compromises quantum information processing, posing a challenge to coherently control large-scale quantum devices. Here, we exploit low-disorder […]

Kavli Affiliate: Andrea D. Caviglia | First 5 Authors: Ulderico Filippozzi, Graham Kimbell, Davide Pizzirani, Siobhan McKeown Walker, Chiara Cocchi | Summary: We study the superconducting critical fields of two-dimensional electron systems at (111)$mathrm{LaAlO_3/KTaO_3}$ interfaces as a function of electrostatic back-gating. Our work reveals inplane critical fields of unprecedented magnitudes at oxide interfaces. By comparing […]

Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Jose Soto Garcia, Natalia Chepiga, , , | Summary: Experiments on chains of Rydberg atoms appear as a new playground to study quantum phase transitions in 1D. As a natural extension, we report a quantitative ground-state phase diagram of Rydberg atoms arranged in a two-leg ladder that […]

Kavli Affiliate: Giordano Scappucci | First 5 Authors: Marc Botifoll, Ivan Pinto-Huguet, Enzo Rotunno, Thomas Galvani, Catalina Coll | Summary: This article introduces a groundbreaking analytical workflow designed for the holistic characterisation, modelling and physical simulation of device heterostructures. Our innovative workflow autonomously, comprehensively and locally characterises the crystallographic information and 3D orientation of the […]
