Spatiotemporally Resolved Orbital Hall Effect in a Topological Semimetal
Advanced Materials, Volume 38, Issue 4, 16 January 2026.Real‐space mapping of orbital angular momentum (OAM) transport is achieved using contact‐free polarimetric terahertz spectroscopy. This principle is applied to the topological semimetal Td‐WTe2, revealing the spatial separation of electrons into two distinct regions characterized by opposite out‐of‐plane OAM (±Lz).
