Momentum space AC Josephson effect and intervalley coherence in multilayer graphene

Electron transport driven by the phase coherence and interference of quantum many-body wavefunctions is a fascinating phenomenon with potential technological significance. Superconductivity, for example, enables dissipationless transport through macroscopic phase twisting, while charge-density waves show broadband noise and AC-DC interference once their phase is depinned. We identify an analogous phase-coherent dynamics in the intervalley-coherent (IVC) state frequently observed in rhombohedral multilayer graphene. We show that a static magnetic field drives an oscillating intervalley current, which produces an oscillating orbital magnetization and thereby a detectable AC Hall response. This mechanism is similar to the Josephson effect observed in superconductors but now happening in momentum space. In this analogy, the static magnetic field acts as the DC voltage, while the oscillating intervalley current is the AC Josephson current. We provide microscopic calculations of all the phase-number free-energy parameters in rhombohedral trilayer graphene, establishing this effect as an experimental signature of IVC order.

Characterization of Amplification Properties of the Superconducting-Ferromagnetic Transistor

Here we report on the measurement results of the superconducting-ferromagnetic transistors (SFTs). The devices were made at Northwestern University and Hypres (SeeQC), Inc. (Nevirkovets et al., 2014; 2015). SFT is a multiterminal device with the SIS'FIFS (or SFIFS'IS) structure (where S, I, and F denote a superconductor, an insulator, and a ferromagnetic material, respectively) exploiting intense quasiparticle injection in order to modify the nonlinear I-V curve of a superconducting tunnel junction. SFT is capable of providing voltage, current, and power amplification while having good input/output isolation. We characterized the devices using different measurement techniques. We measured S parameters of the single- and double-acceptor devices at frequencies up to 5 MHz. Importantly, we confirmed that the isolation between the input and output of the device is quite good. However, the techniques typically employed to characterize semiconductor devices do not allow for revealing the full potential of our low-resistive SFT devices, especially those having two acceptors. In the latter case, we also tested the devices using the battery-powered current sources with floating grounds. Analyzing double-acceptor I-V curves recorded at different levels of injection currents, for an optimal load, we deduced a small-signal voltage gain of 33 and a power gain of 2.4. We suggest that further improvement of the SFT device parameters is possible in optimized devices, so that the device potentially may serve as a preamplifier for readout of output signals of cryogenic detectors and be useful as an element of other superconductor-based circuits. In addition, we used scanning transmission electron microscopy to identify some problems in the fabrication of the devices without any planarization.

Quantum order by disorder in frustrated spin nanotubes

Here we investigate quantum order by disorder in a frustrated spin nanotube formed by wrapping a J1–J2 Heisenberg model at 45° around a cylinder. Using Schwinger boson theory and density matrix renormalization group (DMRG), we have computed the ground-state phase diagram to reveal a Z2 phase in which collinear spin stripes form a right- or left-handed helix around the nanotube. We have derived an analytic estimate for the critical η c = J 1 /2J 2 of the Z 2 -helical phase transition, which is in agreement with the DMRG results. By evaluating the entanglement spectrum and nonlocal string order parameters we discuss the topology of the Z 2 -helical phase.

Dynamically suppressing cavity dephasing induced by frequency fluctuations of a coupled nonlinear mode

High-coherence superconducting cavities offer a promising platform for quantum information, with long coherence times and negligible intrinsic dephasing. However, cavity control generally relies on nonlinear Josephson elements whose frequency fluctuations are inherited by the cavity as dephasing, potentially limiting control fidelities and eroding the noise bias used in error-correction protocols. Here, we introduce Stark-Assisted Flux-noise Evasion (SAFE), a hardware-efficient protocol that protects the cavity from inherited dephasing using only a weak off-resonant microwave drive applied to the nonlinear element. As a concrete setup, we analyze a 3D superconducting cavity dispersively coupled to a flux-tunable transmon (FTT) subject to $1/f$ flux noise. Analytical predictions are confirmed by Monte Carlo simulations with realistic parameters, which show that SAFE can extend the cavity dephasing time by more than an order of magnitude while keeping residual drive-induced decoherence subdominant.

Multiple Charge Density Waves and Superconductivity Nucleation at Antiphase Domain Walls in the Nematic Pnictide Ba 1– x Sr x Ni 2 As 2

How superconductivity interacts with charge or nematic order is one of the great unresolved issues at the center of research in quantum materials. Ba 1– x Sr x Ni 2 As 2 (BSNA) is a charge ordered pnictide superconductor recently shown to exhibit a sixfold enhancement of superconductivity due to nematic fluctuations near a quantum phase transition (at $x_c$ = 0.7). The superconductivity is, however, anomalous, with the resistive transition for $0.4 < x < x_c$ occurring at a higher temperature than the specific heat anomaly. Here, using x-ray scattering, we discovered a new charge density wave (CDW) in BSNA in this composition range. The CDWis commensurate with a period of two lattice parameters, and is distinct from the two CDWs previously reported in this material. We argue that the anomalous transport behavior arises from heterogeneous superconductivity nucleating at antiphase domain walls in this CDW. We also present new data on the incommensurate CDW, previously identified as being unidirectional, showing that it is a rotationally symmetric “4$\textit{Q}$” state with $C_4$ symmetry. Our study establishes BSNA as a rare material containing three distinct CDWs, and an exciting test bed for studying coupling between CDW, nematic, and SC orders.

Superconductivity in Y 4 RuGe 8 with a Vacancy-Ordered CeNiSi 2 -Type Superstructure

In this work, we report a new compound, Y 4 RuGe 8 , with a transition metal vacancy-ordered CeNiSi 2 -type superstructure, which has a superconducting transition at 1.3 K. Y 4 RuGe 8 crystals were grown by indium flux at relatively low temperatures (below 1273 K), which makes it possible to stabilize such a vacancy-ordered phase. The crystal structure of Y 4 RuGe 8 was solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction and confirmed by transmission electron microscopy. The as-grown Y 4 RuGe 8 crystals are always twinned, crystallizing in the space group $P\bar{1}$(no. 2) with the lattice parameters a = 5.7680(1) Å, b = 8.2042(2) Å, c = 11.5093(3) Å, α = 79.696(1)degrees, β = 88.491(1)degrees, and γ = 79.637(2)degrees; this structure is a superstructure deriving from the higher symmetry CeNiSi 2 -type structure (Cmcm, no. 63) due to the ordering of Ru vacancies. The ordering of Ru sites breaks slightly distorted Ge planes in the CeNiSi 2 prototype into infinite cis-trans Ge chains in Y 4 RuGe 8 . The presence of bulk superconductivity in Y 4 RuGe 8 is well supported by zero resistance and a jump in specific heat at the critical transition temperature. The Sommerfeld coefficient (19 mJ K -2 mol -1 ) of the specific heat is greater than that (11 mJ K -2 mol -1 ) estimated using the bare density of states (4.7 states/eV/f.u.) from first-principles calculations. The ab initio calculations indicate that 4d electrons of both Y and Ru and 4p electrons of Ge are the main contributors to the total density of states at the Fermi level in Y 4 RuGe 8 .

Random fields from quenched disorder in an archetype for correlated electrons: The parallel spin stripe phase of La 1.6 – x Nd 0.4 Sr x CuO 4 at the 1/8 anomaly

The parallel stripe phase is remarkable both in its own right, and in relation to the other phases with which it coexists. Its inhomogeneous nature makes such states susceptible to random fields from quenched magnetic vacancies. Here we argue this is the case by introducing low concentrations of nonmagnetic Zn impurities (0%–10%) into La 1.6–x ⁢Nd 0.4⁢ Sr x ⁢CuO 4 (Nd-LSCO) with x=0.125 in single-crystal form, well below the percolation threshold of ~41% for a two-dimensional square lattice. Elastic neutron scattering measurements on these crystals show clear magnetic quasi-Bragg peaks at all Zn dopings. While all the Zn-doped crystals display order parameters that merge into each other and the background at ~68 K, the temperature dependence of the order parameter as a function of Zn concentration is drastically different. This result is consistent with meandering charge stripes within the parallel stripe phase, which are pinned in the presence of quenched magnetic vacancies. In turn it implies vacancies that preferentially occupy sites within the charge stripes, and hence that can be very effective at disrupting superconductivity in Nd-LSCO (x=0.125), and, by extension, in all systems exhibiting parallel stripes.

Dynamic pair-breaking current, critical superfluid velocity, and nonlinear electromagnetic response of nonequilibrium superconductors

Here, we report numerical calculations of a dynamic pair-breaking current density $J_d$ and a critical superfluid velocity $v_d$ in a nonequilibrium superconductor carrying a uniform, large-amplitude AC current density $J(t) = J_a$sinΩ$\textit{t}$ with Ω well below the gap frequency Ω $\ll Δ_0/ℏ$. The dependencies $J_d$(Ω, $\textit{T}$) and $v_d$(Ω, $\textit{T}$) near the critical temperature $T_c$ were calculated from either the full time-dependent nonequilibrium equations for a dirty $\textit{s}$-wave superconductor or the time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau (TDGL) equations for a gapped superconductor, taking into account the GL relaxation time of the order parameter $τ_{\text{GL}}$ and the inelastic electron-phonon relaxation time of quasiparticles $τ_E$. We show that both approaches give similar frequency dependencies of $J_d$(Ω) and $v_d$(Ω) which gradually increase from their static pair-breaking GL values $J_c$ and $v_c$ at Ω$τ_E \ll$1 to $\sqrt{2}J_c$ and $\sqrt{2}v_c$ at Ω$τ_E \gg$ 1. Here $J_d, v_d$ and a dynamic superheating field at which the Meissner state becomes unstable were calculated in two different regimes of a fixed AC current and a fixed AC superfluid velocity induced by the applied AC magnetic field $H = H_a$ sinΩ$\textit{t}$ in a thin superconducting filament or a type-II superconductor with a large GL parameter. We also calculated a nonlinear electromagnetic response of a nonequilibrium superconducting state, particularly a dynamic kinetic inductance and a dissipative quasiparticle conductivity, taking into account the oscillatory dynamics of superconducting condensate and the kinetics of quasiparticles driven by a strong AC current. It is shown that an AC current density produces multiple harmonics of the electric field, the amplitudes of the higher-order harmonics diminishing as $τ_E$ increases.

Scaling whole-chip QAOA for higher-order ising spin glass models on heavy-hex graphs

Abstract We show that the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) for higher-order, random coefficient, heavy-hex compatible spin glass Ising models has strong parameter concentration across problem sizes from 16 up to 127 qubits for p = 1 up to p = 5, which allows for computationally efficient parameter transfer of QAOA angles. Matrix product state (MPS) simulation is used to compute noise-free QAOA performance. Hardware-compatible short-depth QAOA circuits are executed on ensembles of 100 higher-order Ising models on noisy IBM quantum superconducting processors with 16, 27, and 127 qubits using QAOA angles learned from a single 16-qubit instance using the JuliQAOA tool. We show that the best quantum processors find lower energy solutions up to p = 2 or p = 3, and find mean energies that are about a factor of two off from the noise-free distribution. We show that p = 1 QAOA energy landscapes remain very similar as the problem size increases using NISQ hardware gridsearches with up to a 414 qubit processor.

Low-Temperature Competing Magnetic Energy Scales in the Topological Ferrimagnet TbMn 6 Sn 6

TbMn 6 Sn 6 is a metallic ferrimagnet displaying signatures of both topological electrons and topological magnons arising from ferromagnetism and spin-orbit coupling within its Mn kagome layers. Inelastic neutron scattering measurements find strong ferromagnetic (FM) interactions within the Mn kagome layer and reveal a magnetic bandwidth of ~230 meV. The low-energy magnetic excitations are characterized by strong FM Mn-Mn and antiferromagnetic (AFM) Mn-Tb interlayer magnetic couplings. We observe weaker, competing long-range FM and AFM Mn-Mn interlayer interactions similar to those driving helical magnetism in the YMn 6 Sn 6 system. Combined with density-functional theory calculations, we find that competing Mn-Mn interlayer magnetic interactions occur in all RMn 6 Sn 6 compounds with R=Y, Gd-Lu, resulting in magnetic instabilities and tunability when Mn-R interactions are weak. In the case of TbMn 6 Sn 6 , strong AFM Mn-Tb coupling ensures a highly stable three-dimensional ferrimagnetic network.

Electron energy spectrum and magnetic interactions in high-T(sub c) superconductors

The character of magnetic interactions in La-Sr-Cu-O and Y-Ba-Cu-O systems is of primary importance for analysis of high-T(sub c) superconductivity in these compounds. Neutron diffraction experiments showed the antiferromagnetic ground state for nonsuperconducting La2CuO4 and YBa2Cu3O6 with the strongest antiferromagnetic superexchange being in the ab plane. The nonsuperconducting '1-2-3' system has two Neel temperatures T sub N1 and T sub N2. The first one corresponds to the ordering of Cu atoms in the CuO2 planes; T sub N2 reflects the antiferromagnetic ordering of magnetic moments in CuO chains relatively to the moments in the planes T sub N1 and T sub N2 depend strongly on the oxygen content. Researchers describe magnetic interactions in high-T superconductors based on the Linear Muffin-Tin Orbitals (LMTO) band structure calculations. Exchange interaction parameters can be defined from the effective Heisenberg hamiltonian. When the magnetic moments are not too large, as copper magnetic moments in superconducting oxides, J sub ij parameters can be defined through the non-local magnetic susceptibility of spin restricted solution for the crystal. The results of nonlocal magnetic susceptibility calculations and the values of exchange interaction parameters for La CuO and YBa2Cu3O7 systems are given in tabular form. Strong anisotropy of exchange interactions in the ab plane and along the c axis in La2CuO4 is obviously seen. The value of Neel temperature found agrees well with the experimental data available. In the planes of '1-2-3' system there are quite strong antiferromagnetic Cu-O and O-O interaction which appear due to holes in oxygen subbands. These results are in line with the magnetic model of oxygen holes pairing in high-T(sub c) superconductors.

Longitudinal Proximity Effect, Lateral Inverse Proximity Effect, and Nonequilibrium Superconductivity in Transition-edge Sensors

We have recently shown that normal-metal/superconductor (N/S) bilayer TESs (superconducting Transition-Edge Sensors) exhibit weak-link behavior. Our measurements were explained in terms of a longitudinal proximity effect model in which superconducting order from the higher transition temperature leads is induced into the TES bilayer plane over remarkably long distances (up to 290 micron). Here we extend our understanding to include TESs with added noise-mitigating normal-metal structures (N structures). We explain our results of an effect converse to the longitudinal proximity effect (LoPE), the lateral inverse proximity effect (LaiPE), for which the order parameter in the N/S bilayer is reduced due to the neighboring N structures. We present resistance and critical current measurements as a function of temperature and magnetic field taken on square Mo/Au bilayer TESs with lengths ranging from 8 to 130 micron with and without added N structures. We observe the inverse proximity effect on the bilayer over in-plane distances many tens of microns and find the transition shifts to lower temperature scale approximately as the inverse square of the in-plane N-structure separation distance, without appreciable broadening of the transition width. We find TESs with added Au structures exhibit weak-link behavior as evidenced by exponential temperature dependence of the critical current and Josephson-like oscillations of the critical current with applied magnetic field. We also present evidence for nonequilbrium superconductivity and estimate a quasiparticle lifetime of 1.8 x 10(exp -10) s for the bilayer. The LoPE model is also used to explain the increased conductivity at temperatures above the bilayer's steep resistive transition

Nonthermal breaking of magnetic order via photogenerated spin defects in the spin-orbit coupled insulator Sr 3 Ir 2 O 7

In many strongly correlated insulators, antiferromagnetic order competes with exotic and technologically relevant phases, like superconductivity. While control of spin order is critical to stabilize different functional states, elucidating the mechanism of laser-induced demagnetization in complex oxides remains a challenge. It is unknown if the optical pulse can quench magnetization nonthermally or if it instead only acts as a heat source. In this study, we used ultrafast, broadband, optical spectroscopy to track the responses of the electronic, lattice, and spin degrees of freedom and their relation to antiferromagnetism in the strongly spin-orbit coupled insulator Sr 3 Ir 2 O 7 . We find that magnetization can be rapidly and strongly suppressed on a sub-150 fs timescale. At low excitation fluences, the magnetic recovery is fast; however, the recovery time increases dramatically with the magnitude of demagnetization. At the same time, we show that the lattice, evidenced through the A g phonon frequencies, appears to remain below T N , suggesting that the system remains nonthermal during the optical modulation of spin order. We suggest that photogenerated spin defects are responsible for the long-lived demagnetized state and discuss its implications for optical control of solids.

Reaching the equilibrium state of the frustrated triangular Ising magnet Ca 3 Co 2 O 6

Ca 3 Co 2 O 6 is a frustrated magnet consisting of a triangular arrangement of chains of Ising spins. It shows regular magnetization steps versus magnetic field every 1.2 T that are metastable with very slow dynamics. This has puzzled the community for many years and given rise to numerous potential theories. Here we approach the problem by seeking the elusive magnetic equilibrium state at T=2 K. To this end, we explore two approaches: (1) bypassing the slow dynamics produced by changing fields by instead field-cooling directly to the target temperature and (2) quantum annealing in transverse magnetic fields. While we observe no measurable effect of the quantum annealing in fields up to 7 T, which is likely due to the large Ising anisotropy of Co spins in this material, we find that for the field cooling in longitudinal fields we achieve the predicted equilibrium 1/3 magnetization. We perform Monte Carlo simulations of the ground state phase diagram and we also simulate the quantum annealing process and find good agreement between experiment and theory. Thus we present an investigation of the elusive ground state properties of the canonical frustrated triangular system Ca 3 Co 2 O 6 .

Electron– K -phonon interaction in twisted bilayer graphene

We develop an analytic theory to describe the interaction between electrons and K phonons and study its influence on superconductivity in the bare bands of twisted bilayer graphene (TBG). We find that, due to symmetry and the two-center approximation, only one optical K phonon (160meV) of graphene is responsible for the intervalley electron-phonon interaction. Here, this phonon has recently been found in angular-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to be responsible for replicas of the TBG flat bands. By projecting the interaction to the TBG flat bands, we perform the full symmetry analysis of the phonon-mediated attractive interaction and pairing channels in the Chern basis, and show that several channels are guaranteed to have gapless order parameters. From the linearized gap equations, we find that the highest T c pairing induced by this phonon is a singlet gapped s-wave inter-Chern-band order parameter, followed closely by a gapless nematic d-wave intra-Chern-band order parameter. We justify these results analytically, using the topological heavy-fermion mapping of TBG which has allowed us to obtain an analytic form of a phonon-mediated attractive interaction and to analytically solve the linearized and T = 0 gap equations. For the intra-Chern-band channel, the nematic state with nodes is shown to be stabilized in the chiral flat-band limit. While the flat-band Coulomb interaction can be screened sufficiently enough—around the Van Hove singularities—to allow for electron-phonon based superconductivity, it is unlikely that this effect can be maintained in the lower density of states excitation bands around the correlated insulator states.

Geometrical frustration and competing orders in the dipolar trimerized triangular lattice

Here, we introduce and explore low-energy configurations in two-dimensional arrays consisting of Ising-type dipolar coupled nanomagnets lithographically defined onto three-nanomagnet vertices arranged in a triangular coordination. Thus, the system is dubbed the trimerized triangular lattice. Employing synchrotron-based photoemission electron microscopy, we perform temperature-dependent magnetic imaging of moment configurations. These states are then characterized in terms of spin correlations and magnetic structure factors. The results reveal a competition between ferromagnetic and vortex dominated orders, which can be controlled by varying the relevant lattice parameter and the corresponding competing interactions.
