Spontaneous Symmetry Breaking

, 2008
One of the most powerful ideas of modern theoretical physics is the mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. It is at the basis of most of the recent achievements in the description of phase transitions in Statistical Mechanics as well as of collective phenomena in solid state physics.

Atomic Size Misfit for Electrocatalytic Small Molecule Activation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores the application and mechanisms of atomic size misfit in catalysis for small molecule activation, focusing on how structural defects and electronic properties can effectively lower the energy barriers of chemical bonds in molecules like H2O, CO2, and N2.

Prospects of Electric Field Control in Perpendicular Magnetic Tunnel Junctions and Emerging 2D Spintronics for Ultralow Energy Memory and Logic Devices

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Electric control of magnetic tunnel junctions offers a path to drastically reduce the energy requirements of the device. Electric field control of magnetization can be realized in a multitude of ways. These mechanisms can be integrated into existing spintronic devices to further reduce the operational energy.

Time crystal behavior of excited eigenstates

, 2017
In analogy to spontaneous breaking of continuous space translation symmetry in the process of space crystal formation, it was proposed that spontaneous breaking of continuous time translation symmetry could lead to time crystal formation. In other words,

Higgs sector and R-parity breaking couplings in models with broken U(1)_B-L gauge symmetry [PDF]

, 2000
Four different supersymmetric models based on SU(2)_L X U(1)_R X U(1)_B-L and SU(2)_L X SU(2)_R X U(1)_B-L gauge symmetry groups are studied. U(1)_B-L symmetry is broken spontaneously by a vacuum expectation value (VEV) of a sneutrino field.

Low‐Symmetry Weyl Semimetals: A Path to Ideal Topological States

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents a theoretical framework for realizing ideal Weyl semimetals, where Weyl nodes are well‐isolated at the Fermi level. The approach is exemplified in the low‐symmetry material Cu2SnSe3, which exhibits tunable topological phases, current‐induced orbital magnetization, and a strong circular photogalvanic effect, making it a promising ...

Spontaneous scale symmetry breaking at high temperature

Journal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We consider a scale symmetric extension of the Standard Model Higgs scalar sector. The new sector, dilaton, is responsible for the generation of mass scales and may have geometric origin in the Weyl gravity R ~ 2 $$ {\overset{\sim }{R}}^2 $$ term.

Spontaneous Parity Violation in SUSY Strong Gauge Theory

, 2011
We suggest simple models of spontaneous parity violation in supersymmetric strong gauge theory. We focus on left-right symmetric model and investigate vacuum with spontaneous parity violation.

Spontaneous symmetry breaking and trapping of temporal Kerr cavity solitons by pulsed or amplitude-modulated driving fields [PDF]

, 2018
We report on a systematic study of temporal Kerr cavity soliton dynamics in the presence of pulsed or amplitude-modulated driving fields. In stark contrast to the more extensively studied case of phase modulations, we find that Kerr cavity solitons are ...
