Gapless Dirac surface states in the antiferromagnetic topological insulator MnBi 2 Te 4

We used angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and density functional theory calculations to study the electronic properties of MnBi 2 Te 4 , a material that was predicted to be an intrinsic antiferromagnetic (AFM) topological insulator. In striking contrast to earlier literature showing a full gap opening between two surface band manifolds on the (0001) surface, we observed a gapless Dirac surface state with a Dirac point sitting at E B = -280 meV . Furthermore, our ARPES data revealed the existence of a second Dirac cone sitting closer to the Fermi level. Surprisingly, these surface states remain intact across the AFM transition. The presence of gapless Dirac states in this material may be caused by different ordering at the surface from the bulk or weaker magnetic coupling between the bulk and surface. Whereas the surface Dirac cones seem to be remarkably insensitive to the AFM ordering most likely due to weak coupling to magnetism, we did observe a splitting of the bulk band accompanying the AFM transition. Finally, with a moderately high ordering temperature and interesting gapless Dirac surface states, MnBi 2 Te 4 provides a unique platform for studying the interplay between magnetic ordering and topology.

Phase Diagram of the Easy-Axis Triangular-Lattice 𝐽 1 −𝐽 2 Model

Our work studies the largely unexplored phase diagram of the S = 1/2 easy-axis triangular-lattice J 1 -J 2 model, motivated by recent interest in rare-earth and transition-metal compounds that exhibit strong quantum fluctuations and broad spin excitation continua—hallmarks of spin-liquid behavior. Combining density-matrix renormalization group simulations with analytical insights, we present a comprehensive study of the model that describes these materials. Our results provide compelling evidence for a robust spin-liquid phase stabilized between the exotic supersolid Y phase and the collinear stripe phase, remarkably persistent even in the presence of symmetry-breaking anisotropy. Additionally, we analyze the supersolid Y phase, offering a quantitative characterization of its order parameters and clarifying the surprising absence of a ferromagnetic moment; both features relevant to recent experiments on Ising-like triangular-lattice magnets. Altogether, our work provides the necessary framework and important theoretical guidance to the ongoing searches of the spin liquid and other exotic states in the rare-earth and transition-metal triangular-lattice compounds, as well as for advancing the understanding of anisotropic-exchange magnets.

Large Kohn Anomaly and Phonon Collapse Induced by Charge Density Wave in UPt 2⁢ Si 2

Using high-energy-resolution inelastic x-ray scattering, we observe anomalous softening and damping of the transverse acoustic phonon in UPt 2 ⁢Si 2 as the system is cooled toward the charge density wave (CDW) transition temperature 𝑇 CDW . The phonon exhibits a marked Kohn-type anomaly around the CDW wave vector 𝑄 CDW and becomes overdamped within a finite momentum range already well above 𝑇 CDW . The dispersion anomaly is consistent with potential Fermi surface nesting, which together with the extended phonon collapse indicates strong electron-phonon coupling. The transition temperature estimated from the phonon softening is markedly lower than 𝑇 CDW , consistent with a primarily electronic instability rather than a phonon-driven transition. In conclusion, our results establish UPt 2⁢ Si 2 as a prime example of a strongly correlated electron CDW system with exceptionally strong electron-phonon coupling driving phonon softening and collapse.

Lattice dynamics and thermodynamics for δ -plutonium from density functional theory

Here, we present results from density functional theory (DFT) calculations of the lattice dynamics (phonons) and thermodynamics for δ-phase plutonium. The fully relativistic electronic structure is calculated assuming a three-dimensional noncollinear magnetic structure in conjunction with DFT and the general gradient approximation for the electron exchange and correlation interactions. The electronic-structure model is further enhanced by addressing strong orbital-orbital coupling via the conventional orbital-polarization (OP) scheme as has been successfully done for plutonium. The temperature dependence of the phonons is calculated within the self-consistent ab initio lattice dynamics approach. The obtained phonons compare very well with measurements although a modest overestimation of the transverse L-point [ξξξ] phonon is acknowledged. Calculated thermal vibration amplitudes and the associated Debye-Waller temperatures are close to experiments. Lattice, electronic, and magnetic contributions to the heat capacity are predicted and consistent to a few percent with that deduced from experimental data. Good agreement is only achieved when a magnetic contribution to the specific heat is recognized. The parameter-free DFT+OP electronic model is thus capable of predicting phonon properties and thermodynamic behavior of δ-phase plutonium rather accurately.

Enhanced charge density wave coherence in a light-quenched, high-temperature superconductor

Superconductivity and charge density waves (CDWs) are competitive, yet coexisting, orders in cuprate superconductors. To understand their microscopic interdependence, a probe capable of discerning their interaction on its natural length and time scale is necessary. We use ultrafast resonant soft x-ray scattering to track the transient evolution of CDW correlations in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6+x after the quench of superconductivity by an infrared laser pulse. We observe a nonthermal response of the CDW order characterized by a near doubling of the correlation length within ≈1 picosecond of the superconducting quench. Our results are consistent with a model in which the interaction between superconductivity and CDWs manifests inhomogeneously through disruption of spatial coherence, with superconductivity playing the dominant role in stabilizing CDW topological defects, such as discommensurations.

Electronic Layer Decoupling Driven by Density-Wave Order in La 4⁢ Ni 3 ⁢O 10

We probe the density-wave transition of the trilayer nickelate La 4⁢ Ni 3 ⁢O 10 with polarization-resolved infrared spectroscopy. The low-energy electrodynamics is strongly anisotropic, with metallic in-plane and insulating out-of-plane character. In the ordered phase, the anisotropy grows more than an order of magnitude as the out-of-plane conductivity is sharply suppressed. We interpret this enhancement as an effective electronic decoupling of the Ni-O layers driven by a spin-density-wave-induced redistribution of Ni−𝑑 𝑧 2 occupation within the trilayers. This electronic response is accompanied by clearly shifting and splitting out-of-plane phonons, compatible with a density-wave instability of electronic origin.

Theory of the charge density wave in A V 3 Sb 5 kagome metals

The family of metallic kagome compounds AV 3 Sb 5 (A = K, Rb, Cs) was recently discovered to exhibit both superconductivity and charge order. The nature of the charge density wave (CDW) phase is presently unsettled, which complicates the interpretation of the superconducting ground state. In this paper, we use group theory and density functional theory (DFT) to derive and solve a phenomenological Landau model for this CDW state. The DFT results reveal three unstable phonon modes with the same in-plane momentum but different out-of-plane momenta, whose frequencies depend strongly on the electronic temperature. This is indicative of an electronically driven CDW, stabilized by features of the in-plane electronic dispersion. Motivated by the DFT analysis, we construct a Landau free-energy expansion for coupled CDW order parameters with wave vectors at the M and L points of the hexagonal Brillouin zone. We find an unusual trilinear term coupling these different order parameters, which can promote the simultaneous condensation of both CDWs even if the two modes are not nearly degenerate. We classify the different types of coupled multi-Q CDW orders, focusing on those that break the sixfold rotational symmetry and lead to a unit-cell doubling along all three crystallographic directions, as suggested by experiments. Here, we determine a region in parameter space, characterized by large nonlinear Landau coefficients, where these phases—dubbed staggered trihexagonal and staggered Star of David—are the leading instabilities of the system. Finally, we discuss the implications of our results for the kagome metals.

Interplay of broken symmetry and delocalized excitations in the insulating state of 1 T –Ta⁢S 2

Coexistence of localized and extended excitations is central to the macroscopic properties of correlated materials. For 5⁢d transition-metal compounds, electron correlations alone generally do not lead to a metal-insulator (Mott) transition, with insulating behavior usually resulting from their coupling with magnetic ordering and/or structural distortions. 1⁢T–Ta⁢S 2 is a prototypical example of such correlated insulating behavior, with a high-symmetry metallic phase transforming into a distorted, charge-density wave (CDW) insulating state at low temperatures. The nature of the insulating phase as well as the existence and relevance of the localized electron physics remains debated. We resolve this standing controversy in 1⁢T–Ta⁢S 2 combining resonant inelastic x-ray spectroscopy and first-principles calculations. We observe five electronic excitations arising from the interband transitions of the Ta 5d orbitals and the S 3⁢p ligand state, with none of the excitations on the order of the Mott gap. These excitations cannot be explained within the framework of standard multiplet calculations that assume a localized wave function, but instead, are captured by a band-theory framework accounting for the low symmetry of the crystal field in the CDW state. Our findings suggest that the electronic properties of 1T–Ta⁢S 2 are dominated in the visible by both plasmonic quasiparticles and interband transitions, with no resonance associated with a putative Mott transition observed in the 0–3 eV energy range. Finally, our discovery provides insights into the electron localization and the Mott vs band-insulator debate in 1T–Ta⁢S 2 and other transition-metal materials.

MnRhBi3: A Cleavable Antiferromagnetic Metal

This dataset contains DFT input and output files supporting the theoretical modeling in the associated publication (Chem. Mater. 2024, 36, 11306-11316). The calculations characterize MnRhBi3, an orthorhombic (Cmmm) van der Waals-layered intermetallic compound that cleaves easily between neighboring Bi layers. The dataset is organized into three calculation types: (i) Bulk: Structural relaxations of the periodic MnRhBi3 crystal in antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) configurations, using the vdW-DF-optB86b functional. These provide the equilibrium lattice constants, magnetic energy differences (AFM is 0.5 meV/f.u. lower than FM), and magnetic moments (4.4 µB/Mn, 0.17 µB/Rh, 0.18 µB/Bi) reported in Table 1 of the main text. (ii) Slab: Same magnetic configurations computed with an 18 Ang vacuum layer introduced between Bi layers, used to calculate the cleavage energy Ec = 0.56 J/m2 (AFM) and 0.57 J/m2 (FM), establishing MnRhBi3 as a van der Waals-layered material comparable to graphite, MoS2, and CrI3. (iii) ELF: Single-point calculation on the relaxed bulk AFM geometry with LELF=.TRUE., producing the ELFCAR file used to generate electron localization function isosurfaces and contour maps (Fig. 2, main text) showing Bi lone pairs directed into the van der Waals gaps. All folders contain CONTCAR, INCAR, KPOINTS, OUTCAR, and POSCAR. The ELF/ folder additionally contains ELFCAR. Calculations were performed using VASP 6.3.2 with PBE + vdW-DF-optB86b, PAW potentials, and an energy cutoff of 800 eV.

Origin of anomalous magnetotransport in kagome superconductors 𝐴⁢V 3 ⁢Sb 5 (𝐴 = K,Rb,Cs)

Multiple anomalous features in electronic spectra of metals with a kagome lattice structure—van Hove singularities, Dirac points, and flat bands—imply that materials containing this structural motif may lie at a nexus of topological and correlated electron physics. Due to the prospects of such exceptional electronic behavior, the recent discovery of superconductivity coexisting with charge-density wave (CDW) order in the layered kagome metals 𝐴⁢V 3 ⁢Sb 5 (𝐴 = K,Rb,Cs) has attracted considerable attention. Notably, these archetypal kagome metals express unconventional magnetotransport behavior, including an unexpected linear-in-𝐻 diagonal resistivity at low fields, and an even more peculiar, nonmonotonic sign-changing behavior of the Hall resistivity, which has been speculated to arise from a chiral CDW. We argue here that this unusual magnetotransport derives not from such unconventional phenomena, but rather from the unique fermiology of the 𝐴⁢V 3 ⁢Sb 5 materials. Specifically, it is caused by a large, concave hexagonal Fermi surface sheet formed in the close proximity to the van Hove singularities, which is backfolded into a small hexagonal sheet and two large triangular sheets in the CDW state. We introduce and analyze a model of the electronic structure of these Fermi surface sheets that allows for a full analytical treatment within Boltzmann kinetic theory and that enables semi-quantitative fits of our transport data. Specifically, we find that the anomalous magnetotransport behavior is caused by the confluence of strong reduction of the Fermi velocity near the van Hove singularities located near the vertices of the hexagonal sheet and sharp corners in Fermi surface generated by the CDW reconstruction. In conclusion, our analytical approach not only explains the anomalous magnetotransport in the kagome superconductors but also can be extended to a variety of metallic systems hosting singular features in their Fermi surfaces.

In-Plane Anisotropy of Charge Density Wave Fluctuations in 1⁢𝑇−TiSe 2

We report measurements of anisotropic triple-𝑞 charge density wave (CDW) fluctuations in the transition metal dichalcogenide 1⁢𝑇−TiSe 2 over a large volume of reciprocal space with x-ray diffuse scattering. Above the transition temperature, 𝑇 CDW , the in-plane diffuse scattering is marked by ellipses which reveal that the in-plane fluctuations are anisotropic. In addition, the out-of-plane diffuse scattering is characterized by rodlike structures which indicate that the CDW fluctuations in neighboring layers are largely decoupled. Furthermore, our analysis of the diffuse scattering line shapes and orientations suggests that the three charge density wave components contain independent phase fluctuations with a hierarchy of length scales, leading to intricate fluctuation patterns that go beyond the conventional 2D-to-3D crossover picture.

Beyond Conventional Charge Density Wave for Strongly Enhanced 2D Superconductivity in 1H‐TaS 2 Superlattices

Noncentrosymmetric transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers offer a fertile platform for exploring unconventional Ising superconductivity (SC) and charge density waves (CDWs). However, the vulnerability of isolated monolayers to structural disorder and environmental oxidation often degrade their electronic coherence. Herein, an alternative approach is reported for fabricating stable and intrinsic monolayers of 1H-TaS2 sandwiched between SnS blocks in a (SnS) 1.15 TaS 2 van der Waals (vdW) superlattice. The SnS block layers not only decouple individual 1H-TaS 2 sublayers to endow them with monolayer-like electronic characteristics, but also protect the 1H-TaS 2 layers from electronic degradation. The results reveal the characteristic 3 × 3 CDW order in 1H-TaS 2 sublayers associated with electronic rearrangement in the low-lying sulfur p band, which uncovers a previously undiscovered CDW mechanism rather than the conventional Fermi surface-related framework. Additionally, the (SnS) 1.15 TaS 2 superlattice exhibits a strongly enhanced Ising-like SC with a layer-independent T c of ≈3.0 K, comparable to that of the isolated monolayer 1H-TaS 2 sample, presumably attributed to their monolayer-like characteristics and retained Fermi states. These results provide new insights into the long-debated CDW order and enhanced SC of monolayer 1H-TaS 2 , establishing bulk vdW superlattices as promising platforms for investigating exotic collective quantum phases in the 2D limit.

Revealing the competition between charge density wave and superconductivity in CsV 3 Sb 5 through uniaxial strain

In this paper we report the effect of uniaxial strain ε applied along the crystalline a axis on the newly discovered kagome superconductor CsV 3 Sb 5 . At ambient conditions, CsV 3 Sb 5 shows a charge-density wave (CDW) transition at T CDW = 94.5K and superconducts below T c = 3.34K. In our paper, when the uniaxial strain ε is varied from –0.90% to 0.90%,T c monotonically increases by ~33% from 3.0 to 4.0 K, giving rise to the empirical relation T c (ε) = 3.4 + 0.56ε + 0.12ε 2 . On the other hand, for ε changing from –0.76% to 1.26%,TCDW decreases monotonically by ~10% from 97.5 to 87.5 K with T CDW (ε) = 94.5 – 4.72ε – 0.60ε 2 . The opposite response of T c and T CDW to the uniaxial strain suggests strong competition between these two orders. Comparison with hydrostatic pressure measurements indicate that it is the change in the c axis that is responsible for these behaviors of the CDW and superconducting transitions, and that the explicit breaking of the sixfold rotational symmetry by strain has a negligible effect. Combined with our first-principles calculations and phenomenological analysis, we conclude that the enhancement in Tc with decreasing c is caused primarily by the suppression of T CDW , rather than strain-induced modifications in the bare superconducting parameters. We propose that the sensitivity of T CDW with respect to the changes in the c axis arises from the impact of the latter on the trilinear coupling between the $M$$^{+}_{1}$ and the $L$$^{–}_{2}$ phonon modes associated with the CDW. Altogether, our paper reveals that the c-axis lattice parameter, which can be controlled by both pressure and uniaxial strain, is a powerful tuning knob for the phase diagram of CsV 3 Sb 5 .

Titanium doped kagome superconductor CsV 3–x Ti x Sb 5 and two distinct phases

The vanadium-based kagome superconductor CsV 3 Sb 5 has attracted tremendous attention due to its unexcepted anomalous Hall effect (AHE), charge density waves (CDWs), nematicity, and a pseudogap pair density wave (PDW) coexisting with unconventional strong-coupling superconductivity. The origins of CDWs, unconventional superconductivity, and their correlation with different electronic states in this kagome system are of great significance, but so far, are still under debate. Chemical doping in the kagome layer provides one of the most direct ways to reveal the intrinsic physics, but remains unexplored. Here, we report, for the first time, the synthesis of Ti-substituted CsV 3 Sb 5 single crystals and its rich phase diagram mapping the evolution of intertwining electronic states. The Ti atoms directly substitute for V in the kagome layers. CsV 3–x Ti x Sb 5 shows two distinct superconductivity phases upon substitution. The Ti slightly-substituted phase displays an unconventional V-shaped superconductivity gap, coexisting with weakening CDW, PDW, AHE, and nematicity. The Ti highly-substituted phase has a U-shaped superconductivity gap concomitant with a short-range rotation symmetry breaking CDW, while long-range CDW, twofold symmetry of in-plane resistivity, AHE, and PDW are absent. Furthermore, we also demonstrate the chemical substitution of V atoms with other elements such as Cr and Nb, showing a different modulation on the superconductivity phases and CDWs. These findings open up a way to synthesise a new family of doped CsV 3 Sb 5 materials, and further represent a new platform for tuning the different correlated electronic states and superconducting pairing in kagome superconductors.

Theoretical study of intrinsic defects in cubic silicon carbide 3C-SiC

Using the local moment counter charge (LMCC) method to accurately represent the asymptotic electrostatic boundary conditions within density functional theory supercell calculations, we present a comprehensive analysis of the atomic structure and energy levels of point defects in cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC). Finding that the classical long-range dielectric screening outside the supercell induced by a charged defect is a significant contributor to the total energy. we describe and validate a modified Jost screening model to evaluate this polarization energy. This leads to bulk-converged defect levels in finite size supercells. With the LMCC boundary conditions and a standard Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof (PBE) exchange correlation functional, the computed defect level spectrum exhibits no band gap problem: the range of defect levels spans ~2.4 eV, an effective defect band gap that agrees with the experimental band gap. Comparing with previous literature, our LMCC-PBE defect results are in consistent agreement with the hybrid-exchange functional results of Oda et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 139, 124707 (2013)] rather than their PBE results. The difference with their PBE results is attributed to their use of a conventional jellium approximation rather than the more rigorous LMCC approach for handling charged supercell boundary conditions. The difference between standard dft and hybrid functional results for defect levels lies not in a band gap problem but rather in solving a boundary condition problem. The LMCC-PBE entirely mitigates the effect of the band gap problem on defect levels. The more computationally economical PBE enables a systematic exploration of 3C-SiC defects, where, most notably, we find that the silicon vacancy undergoes Jahn-Teller-induced distortions from the previously assumed T d symmetry, and that the divacancy, like the silicon vacancy, exhibits a site-shift bistability in p -type conditions.

Reaching quantum critical point by adding nonmagnetic disorder in single crystals of superconductor (Ca 𝑥 ⁢Sr 1−𝑥 ) 3 ⁢Rh 4 ⁢Sn 13

The Remeika series superconductor, (Ca 𝑥 ⁢Sr 1−𝑥 ) 3 ⁢Rh 4 ⁢Sn 13 , shows a rare nonmagnetic quantum critical point (QCP) associated with the continuous charge-density wave (CDW) and structural transition under the “dome” of superconductivity achieved by tuning composition and applying pressure. Here, we use a nonmagnetic pointlike disorder induced by 2.5 MeV electron irradiation to suppress the CDW and drive the system to and even beyond the QCP. This conclusion is based on a clear evolution of temperature-dependent resistivity, 𝜌⁡(𝑇), from the Fermi liquid to the non-Fermi liquid regime with increasing amount of disorder. Starting on the CDW side, below the suggested QCP concentration of 𝑥 𝑐 =0.9, added disorder resulted in a progressively larger linear term and a reduced quadratic term in 𝜌⁡(𝑇). Nearly perfect 𝑇−linear dependence is observed at the dose at which long-range CDW order is suppressed to 𝑇=0, consistent with the expectations. We refine the QCP location in this system and place it in the interval between 𝑥=0.75 and 0.85. Our results strongly support the concept that the disorder can tune the system to the quantum critical regime and even beyond. It follows from the argument by Imry and Ma that any ordered phase is unstable toward quenched disorder. Introduced in a controlled way, this disorder becomes a nonthermal tuning parameter likely applicable to a variety of different systems.

Programmable Phase Selection between Altermagnetic and Noncentrosymmetric Polymorphs of MnTe on InP via Molecular Beam Epitaxy

This dataset contains DFT input and output files supporting the theoretical modeling in the associated publication (ACS Appl. Mater. Interfaces 2026, 18, 15654-15664). The calculations model the interfacial energetics of two MnTe polymorphs — NiAs-MnTe (hexagonal, alpha phase) and ZnS-MnTe (cubic, gamma phase) — on InP(111) substrates with two surface terminations: In-terminated InP(111)A and P-terminated InP(111)B. This gives four interface configurations: NiAs on In-terminated (experimentally observed), NiAs on P-terminated (computed for comparison), ZnS on In-terminated (computed for comparison), and ZnS on P-terminated (experimentally observed). The dataset is organized into four calculation types, each covering all four polymorph/termination combinations: (i) Slabs: Pristine MnTe/InP heterostructure slabs used to compute total energies and interface energy densities (Eint) for all four configurations, as reported in Fig. 6 of the main text. (ii) Disorder: Same slab geometries with a P_Te + Te_P antisite defect pair introduced near the interface, used to assess chemical intermixing effects on interface stability (Fig. S8, SI). (iii) Strain: Pristine slab calculations with in-plane lattice parameters strained by -1% and +1% relative to the InP lattice constant, used to evaluate strain-dependent interface energetics (Fig. S9, SI). (iv) Charge_Density: Single-point calculations on the full heterostructure, the isolated InP slab, and the isolated MnTe slab at fixed geometry, used to compute differential charge density plots showing interfacial charge accumulation and depletion as a function of surface termination (Fig. S10, SI). Each calculation folder contains INCAR, KPOINTS, POSCAR, CONTCAR, OUTCAR, and POTCAR_info.txt (PAW potential information, excluding the full POTCAR due to VASP licensing restrictions). The calculations were performed using VASP 6.4.3 with PBE exchange-correlation, PAW potentials, a Hubbard correction of Ueff = 5 eV on Mn d-states, and A-type AFM spin initialization.
