Giant Nonequilibrium Valley Control via Spin‐Selective Hot‐Carrier Transfer in an Antiferromagnetic van der Waals Stack

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Spin‐selective hot‐carrier transfer across CrSBr/WSe2/CrSBr interfaces couples the continuously tunable magnetic configuration of antiferromagnetic CrSBr to the valley degrees of freedom of monolayer WSe2, enabling giant nonequilibrium valley control and magnetic‐state‐dependent reversal of circularly polarized emission.

Inverse Design of Nanoparticulate Materials

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Inverse design shifts nanomaterial development from empirical trial‐and‐error to predictive model‐driven strategies. It can rely on knowledge‐based, data‐based, or hybrid process and property functions. This perspective article provides a practical framework for applying inverse design based on instructive examples. It discusses which modeling approach

Parity‐Dependent THz Harmonic Generation in Electrically Pumped Micro‐Lasers Exploiting Topological Insulator–Metamaterial Gratings

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Topological insulator–metamaterials integrated with electrically driven terahertz quantum cascade lasers enable parity‐dependent harmonic generation. Bulk‐dominated Bi2Se3 favors third‐harmonic emission at 9.96 THz, whereas topological‐surface‐state‐dominated Bi2Se3, Bi2Te3, and (Bi,Sb)2Te3 generate strong second harmonics near 6.5 THz.

Complete hyperentangled state analysis using weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity and auxiliary entanglement

New Journal of Physics, 2020
We present a new method for the complete analysis of hyperentangled Bell state and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state in polarization and spatial-mode degrees of freedom, resorting to weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity and auxiliary frequency entanglement.

Sub‐nm2 Ferroelectric Domains via Charged 180° Walls in ZrO2

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Ferroelectric ZrO2${\rm ZrO}_2$ thin films host closely spaced charged 180∘$^{\circ }$ domain walls that vertically compress polar domains beyond their lateral half‐unit‐cell limit. These head‐to‐head and tail‐to‐tail walls show distinct bulk‐like structures, natural oxygen‐mediated stabilization, and highly asymmetric mobility, highlighting new ...

Entangling entanglement: coupling frequency and polarization of biphotons on demand

npj Quantum Information
Quantum information is often carried in the frequency and polarization degrees of freedom (DoFs) in single photons and entangled photons. We demonstrate an approach to couple and decouple the frequency and polarization DoFs of broadband biphotons.

Giant Anisotropic Spin Absorption in Chiral Hybrid Semiconductors

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Researchers uncover that chiral hybrid organic–inorganic semiconductors absorb spin differently depending on its polarization direction. This anisotropic spin absorption is primarily driven by the local symmetry breaking within the layered structure.
