Electrical Manipulation of Topological Phases in a Quantum Anomalous Hall Insulator

Quantum anomalous Hall phases arising from the inverted band topology in magnetically doped topological insulators have emerged as an important subject of research for quantization at zero magnetic fields. Though necessary for practical implementation, sophisticated electrical control of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE)-grown quantum anomalous Hall matter have been stymied by growth and fabrication challenges. Here, in this study, a novel procedure is demonstrated, employing a combination of thin-film deposition and 2D material stacking techniques, to create dual-gated devices of the MBE-grown quantum anomalous Hall insulator, Cr-doped (Bi,Sb) 2 Te 3 . In these devices, orthogonal control over the field-induced charge density and the electric displacement field is demonstrated. A thorough examination of material responses to tuning along each control axis is presented, realizing magnetic property control along the former and a novel capability to manipulate the surface exchange gap along the latter. Through electrically addressing the exchange gap, the capabilities to either strengthen the quantum anomalous Hall state or suppress it entirely and drive a topological phase transition to a trivial state are demonstrated. The experimental result is explained using first principle theoretical calculations, and establishes a practical route for in situ control of quantum anomalous Hall states and topology.

Manipulating Ferroelectric Topological Polar Structures with Twisted Light

Abstract The dynamic control of non‐equilibrium states represents a central challenge in condensed matter physics. While intense terahertz fields drive metal‐insulator transitions and ferroelectricity via soft phonon modes, recent theory suggests that twisted light with orbital angular momentum (OAM) offers a distinct route to manipulate ferroelectric order and stabilize topological excitations including skyrmions, vortices, and Hopfions. Control of ferroelectric polarization in quasi‐2D CsBiNb 2 O 7 (CBNO) is demonstrated using non‐resonant twisted ultra‐violet (UV) light (375 nm, 800 THz). Combining in situ X‐ray Bragg coherent diffractive imaging (BCDI), twisted optical Raman spectroscopy, and density functional theory (DFT), three‐dimensional (3D) ionic displacements, strain fields, and polarization changes are resolved in single crystals. Operando measurements reveal light‐induced strain hysteresis under twisted light–a hallmark of nonlinear, history‐dependent ferroelastic switching driven by OAM. Discrete, irreversible domain transitions emerge as the topological charge ℓ is cycled, stabilizing non‐trivial domain textures including vortex‐antivortex pairs, Bloch/anti‐Bloch points, and merons. These persist after OAM removal, indicating a memory effect. Competing mechanisms are discussed, including multiphoton absorption, strain‐mediated polarization switching, and defect‐wall interactions. The findings establish structured light as a tool for deterministic, reversible control of ferroic states, enabling optically reconfigurable non‐volatile devices.

0D Nanocrystals as Light‐Driven, Localized Charge‐Injection Sources for the Contactless Manipulation of Atomically Thin 2D Materials

A contactless charge‐injection scheme that allows the local and quasi‐permanent manipulation of atomically thin 2D materials, such as monolayer (1L‐)MoS 2 , over spatial extents of several tens of micrometers, is reported. The possibility to precisely position and localize the charge‐injection source to the micrometer scale post‐fabrication allows the investigation of local unperturbed electronic structure of the 2D material. Thanks to this novel approach, the important impact of sample inhomogeneity on the charge‐carrier percolation that occurs over the entire extent of the 2D flake and proliferates up to 40 μm away from the localized charge injection is elucidated. The apparent driving force for carrier relocation is the initial inhomogeneous electronic landscape of the 2D material. These studies demonstrate that local and contactless charge injection with submicrometer precision delivers an alternative route for charge injection and indicates that local 2D material electronic structure can serve as a key element for novel nanoscale device design.

Coherent Manipulation of Single Electrons with Optical Photons in Condensed Helium-4

Single electrons are one of the simplest quantum objects in nature. In free space or conventional materials, single electrons hardly interact with optical (ultraviolet-visible-infrared) photons, so their quantum states cannot be easily manipulated by optics. Here, a notable exception is is theoretically demonstrated: A single electron in condensed helium-4 can be self-confined in a nanometric bubble of 1 to 2 nm radius and resonantly interact with mid-infrared photons of 3 to 12 μm wavelength. A femtosecond laser can drive the electron into Rabi oscillations and prepare it onto arbitrary superposition states between the ground and excited states. After the laser pulse, the electron bubble can exhibit remarkable nonequilibrium quantum dynamics and evolve toward various final states with various lifetimes. These processes are accompanied with intense phonon radiation.

Electric-Field Manipulation of Magnetic Chirality in a Homo-Ferro-Rotational Helimagnet

Ferro-rotational (FR) materials, renowned for their distinctive material functionalities, present challenges in the growth of homo-FR crystals (i.e., single FR domain). This study explores a cost-effective approach to growing homo-FR helimagnetic RbFe(SO 4 ) 2 (RFSO) crystals by lowering the crystal growth temperature below the T FR threshold using the high-pressure hydrothermal method. Through polarized neutron diffraction experiments, it is observed that nearly 86% of RFSO crystals consist of a homo-FR domain. Notably, RFSO displays remarkable stability in the FR phase, with an exceptionally high T FR of ≈573 K. Furthermore, RFSO exhibits a chiral helical magnetic structure with switchable ferroelectric polarization below 4 K. Importantly, external electric fields can induce a single magnetic domain state and manipulate its magnetic chirality. The findings suggest that the search for new FR magnets with outstanding material properties should consider magnetic sulfates as promising candidates.

Complementing Nanoscale Galvanic Exchange with Redox Manipulation toward Architectural Control of Multimetallic Hollow Nanostructures

Galvanic exchange occurring within the confinement by nanoparticulate templates provides a unique pathway to controllably transform solid metallic nanoparticles into architecturally more sophisticated multimetallic hollow nanostructures under facile reaction conditions. As such, in this Minireview, we elaborately discuss how the nanoparticle-templated galvanic exchange can be deliberately coupled with redox manipulation to synthesize a large library of complex multimetallic hollow nanostructures exhibiting precisely tailored architectures and compositions, with a particular emphasis on important mechanistic insights concerning the dynamic interplay among multiple structure-remodeling processes that synergistically dictate the versatile nanoparticle transforming behaviors during kinetically and regioselectively modulated galvanic exchange reactions.

All the light we cannot see: Climate manipulations leave short and long‐term imprints in spectral reflectance of trees

Abstract Anthropogenic climate change, particularly changes in temperature and precipitation, affects plants in multiple ways. Because plants respond dynamically to stress and acclimate to changes in growing conditions, diagnosing quantitative plant‐environment relationships is a major challenge. One approach to this problem is to quantify leaf responses using spectral reflectance, which provides rapid, inexpensive, and nondestructive measurements that capture a wealth of information about genotype as well as phenotypic responses to the environment. However, it is unclear how warming and drought affect spectra. To address this gap, we used an open‐air field experiment that manipulates temperature and rainfall in 36 plots at two sites in the boreal‐temperate ecotone of northern Minnesota, USA. We collected leaf spectral reflectance (400–2400 nm) at the peak of the growing season for three consecutive years on juveniles (two to six years old) of five tree species planted within the experiment. We hypothesized that these mid‐season measurements of spectral reflectance capture a snapshot of the leaf phenotype encompassing a suite of physiological, structural, and biochemical responses to both long‐ and short‐time scale environmental conditions. We show that the imprint of environmental conditions experienced by plants hours to weeks before spectral measurements is linked to regions in the spectrum associated with stress, namely the water absorption regions of the near‐infrared and short‐wave infrared. In contrast, the environmental conditions plants experience during leaf development leave lasting imprints on the spectral profiles of leaves, attributable to leaf structure and chemistry (e.g., pigment content and associated ratios). Our analyses show that after accounting for baseline species spectral differences, spectral responses to the environment do not differ among the species. This suggests that building a general framework for understanding forest responses to climate change through spectral metrics may be possible, likely having broader implications if the common responses among species detected here represent a widespread phenomenon. Consequently, these results demonstrate that examining the entire spectrum of leaf reflectance for environmental imprints in contrast to single features (e.g., indices and traits) improves inferences about plant‐environment relationships, which is particularly important in times of unprecedented climate change.

Manipulation of Scattering Spectra with Topology of Light and Matter

Structured lights, including beams carrying spin and orbital angular momenta, radially and azimuthally polarized vector beams, as well as spatiotemporal optical vortices, have attracted significant interest due to their unique amplitude, phase front, polarization, and temporal structures, enabling a variety of applications in optical and quantum communications, micromanipulation, and super-resolution imaging. In parallel, structured optical materials, metamaterials, and metasurfaces consisting of engineered unit cells—meta-atoms, opened new avenues for manipulating the flow of light and optical sensing. While several studies explored structured light effects on the individual meta-atoms, their shapes are largely limited to simple spherical geometries. However, the synergy of the structured light and complex-shaped meta-atoms has not been fully explored. Here, in this paper, the role of the helical wavefront of Laguerre–Gaussian beams in the excitation and suppression of higher-order resonant modes inside all-dielectric meta-atoms of various shapes, aspect ratios, and orientations, is demonstrated and the excitation of various multipolar moments that are not accessible via unstructured light illumination is predicted. The presented study elucidates the role of the complex phase distribution of the incident light in shape-dependent resonant scattering, which is of utmost importance in a wide spectrum of applications ranging from remote sensing to spectroscopy.

Deep Learning‐Assisted Automated Single Cell Electroporation Platform for Effective Genetic Manipulation of Hard‐to‐Transfect Cells

Abstract Genome engineering of cells using CRISPR/Cas systems has opened new avenues for pharmacological screening and investigating the molecular mechanisms of disease. A critical step in many such studies is the intracellular delivery of the gene editing machinery and the subsequent manipulation of cells. However, these workflows often involve processes such as bulk electroporation for intracellular delivery and fluorescence activated cell sorting for cell isolation that can be harsh to sensitive cell types such as human‐induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs). This often leads to poor viability and low overall efficacy, requiring the use of large starting samples. In this work, a fully automated version of the nanofountain probe electroporation (NFP‐E) system, a nanopipette‐based single‐cell electroporation method is presented that provides superior cell viability and efficiency compared to traditional methods. The automated system utilizes a deep convolutional network to identify cell locations and a cell‐nanopipette contact algorithm to position the nanopipette over each cell for the application of electroporation pulses. The automated NFP‐E is combined with microconfinement arrays for cell isolation to demonstrate a workflow that can be used for CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing and cell tracking with potential applications in screening studies and isogenic cell line generation.

Implementation of Ion Mobility Spectrometry-Based Separations in Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations (SLIM)

Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations (SLIM) is a powerful variant of traveling wave ion mobility spectrometry (TW-IMS) that uses a serpentine pattern of microelectrodes deposited onto printed circuit boards to achieve ultralong ion path lengths (13.5 m). Ions are propelled through SLIM platforms via arrays of TW electrodes while RF and DC electrodes provide radial confinement, establishing near lossless transmission. The recent ability to cycle ions multiple times through a SLIM has allowed ion path lengths to exceed 1000 m, providing unprecedented separation power and the ability to observe ion structural conformations unobtainable with other IMS technologies. The combination of high separation power, high signal intensity, and the ability to couple with mass spectrometry places SLIM in the unique position of being able to address longstanding proteomics and metabolomics challenges by allowing the characterization of isomeric mixtures containing low abundance analytes.

High-resolution ion mobility based on traveling wave structures for lossless ion manipulation resolves hidden lipid features

Abstract High-resolution ion mobility (resolving power > 200) coupled with mass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical tool for resolving isobars and isomers in complex samples. High-resolution ion mobility is capable of discerning additional structurally distinct features, which are not observed with conventional resolving power ion mobility (IM, resolving power ~ 50) techniques such as traveling wave IM and drift tube ion mobility (DTIM). DTIM in particular is considered to be the “gold standard” IM technique since collision cross section (CCS) values are directly obtained through a first-principles relationship, whereas traveling wave IM techniques require an additional calibration strategy to determine accurate CCS values. In this study, we aim to evaluate the separation capabilities of a traveling wave ion mobility structures for lossless ion manipulation platform integrated with mass spectrometry analysis (SLIM IM-MS) for both lipid isomer standards and complex lipid samples. A cross-platform investigation of seven subclass-specific lipid extracts examined by both DTIM-MS and SLIM IM-MS showed additional features were observed for all lipid extracts when examined under high resolving power IM conditions, with the number of CCS-aligned features that resolve into additional peaks from DTIM-MS to SLIM IM-MS analysis varying between 5 and 50%, depending on the specific lipid sub-class investigated. Lipid CCS values are obtained from SLIM IM ( TW(SLIM) CCS) through a two-step calibration procedure to align these measurements to within 2% average bias to reference values obtained via DTIM ( DT CCS). A total of 225 lipid features from seven lipid extracts are subsequently identified in the high resolving power IM analysis by a combination of accurate mass-to-charge, CCS, retention time, and linear mobility-mass correlations to curate a high-resolution IM lipid structural atlas. These results emphasize the high isomeric complexity present in lipidomic samples and underscore the need for multiple analytical stages of separation operated at high resolution. Graphical abstract

Stabilization and manipulation of highly concentrated copper single atoms by high entropy oxides

Facile and controllable methodologies capable of providing single atom catalysts (SACs) with high-density active metal sites and sintering-resistance under harsh conditions are highly desired and grand challenges in heterogeneous catalysis. Herein, the entropy effect was leveraged to stabilize and manipulate the electronic properties of copper SACs. The as-developed ultrasonication-driven approach could integrate highly concentrated Cu SAs within the lattice of fluorite-structured high entropy oxide (HEFO) under ambient conditions (CuO-HEFO). The dual benefits from the high entropy effect of the support and the in-situ lattice engineering led to the generation of abundant Cu 1+ species and oxygen defects, together with ultra-high stability and sintering-resistance under extremely harsh conditions. This was confirmed by deploying non-high entropy support (CuO-CeO 2 ) or Cu sites located on the surface of HEFO (CuO@HEFO). In conclusion, the catalytic activity of CuO-HEFO surpassed that of CuO-CeO 2 and CuO@HEFO in CO oxidation together with well-maintained long-term stability and resistance to gas impurities.

Manipulation of self-organized multi-vortical states in active magnetic roller suspensions

Ensembles of active magnetic colloids demonstrate complex collective behavior and self-organization when driven out of equilibrium by external magnetic fields. The interplay between magnetic and hydrodynamic interactions often result in spontaneous self-assembly and the emergence of localized vortices in ensembles of ferromagnetic rollers. We report experimental and computational study of the self-organized multi-vortical state in ensembles of magnetic rollers under the imposed external confining potential realized by patterned substrates. We explore the behavior of the system on a substrate patterned with shallow wells ordered in a lattice with square symmetry and lattice spacing smaller than the wells’ diameter. Here we demonstrate, that ensembles of active magnetic rollers evolve in response to changes in the geometry of the confining lattice from a globally correlated state characterized by anti-ferromagnetic vortex ordering to a state with rapidly changing particle flows and self-organized vortical states with a lattice constant larger than one of the confining pattern. Our experimental observations are accompanied by numerical simulations based on phenomenological coarse grained particle dynamics coupled to Navier–Stokes hydrodynamics in shallow water approximation. The reported results provide insights into the collective behavior of active magnetic rollers under confinement and suggest strategies for the manipulation of collective dynamic states in active magnetic liquids.

Manipulating Pore Topology and Functionality to Promote Fluorocarbon-Based Adsorption Cooling

With the worldwide demand for refrigeration and cooling expected to triple, it is increasingly important to search for alternative energy resources to drive the refrigeration cycles with reduced electricity consumption. Recently, adsorption cooling has gained increased attention since energy reallocation in such systems is based on gas adsorption/desorption, which can be driven by waste/natural heat sources. Eco-friendly sorption-based cooling relies on the cyclic transfer of refrigerant gas from a high to low energy state by the pseudo-compression effect resulting from adsorption and desorption. The driving force for energy transfer relies on heat rather than electricity. The performance of a sorption chiller is primarily influenced by this cyclic sorption behavior, which is characterized as the working capacity of the porous sorbent. Thus increases in this working capacity directly translate to a more compact and efficient cooling system. How-ever, a lack of highly effective sorbent/refrigerant pairs lowers cooling performance, and therefore has limited applicability. To this end, synthetic metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic polymers (COPs) possess higher porosity and greater tunability leading to more substantial potential benefits for adsorption, compared to traditional sorbent materials. Similarly, hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants have more favorable applicability given ease of operation above atmospheric pressures due to suitable saturated vapor pressures and boiling points. For these reasons, our work focuses on an ongoing strategy to promote sorption cooling via improvements in the sorbent/refrigerant pair. Specifically, we target the interaction of hydrofluorocarbon refrigerants with MOF/COP materials at a molecular level by interpreting the host-guest chemistry and the role of framework pore topology. These molecular level differences translate to cooling performance, which is described herein. These strategies include engineering framework porosity (i.e., pore size, pore volume) by using elongated organic linkers and stereochemistry control during synthesis; manipulating the sorb-ate/sorbent interaction by introducing functional moieties or unsaturated metal centers to enhance working capacities in narrow pressure ranges; varying pore topology/morphology to impact adsorption isotherm behavior; and leveraging defective sites within the frameworks to further enhance adsorption capability. Here this atomic level understanding of sorb-ate-sorbent interactions is conducted using various in situ experimental techniques such as synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and direct sorption energies determinization with calorimetry. Moreover, the experimentally studied interactions and the corresponding adsorption mechanism are corroborated by computational studies using density functional theory (DFT) and grand canonical Monte Carlo (GCMC) simulations. Using this approach, we envision the capability to engineer designed frameworks with precise molecular control to target refrigerant molecules and thereby enhance the performance of desired working pairs for sorption-based cooling.

Ion Mobility Spectrometry with High Ion Utilization Efficiency Using Traveling Wave-Based Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations

Ion packets introduced from gates, ion funnel traps, and other conventional ion injection mechanisms produce ion pulse widths typically around a few microseconds or less for ion mobility spectrometry (IMS)-based separations on the order of 100 milliseconds. When such ion injection techniques are coupled with ultralong path length traveling wave (TW)-based IMS separations (i.e., on the order of seconds) using structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIMs), typically very low ion utilization efficiency is achieved for continuous ion sources [e.g., electrospray ionization (ESI)]. Even with the ability to trap and accumulate much larger populations of ions than being conventionally feasible over longer time periods in SLIM devices, the subsequent long separations lead to overall low ion utilization. In this study, we report the use of a highly flexible SLIM arrangement, enabling concurrent ion accumulation and separation and achieving near-complete ion utilization with ESI. We characterize the ion accumulation process in SLIM, demonstrate >98% ion utilization, and show both increased signal intensities and measurement throughput. This approach is envisioned to have broad utility to applications, for example, involving the fast detection of trace chemical species.

Assessing Collision Cross Section Calibration Strategies for Traveling Wave-Based Ion Mobility Separations in Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations

The collision cross section (CCS) is an important property that aids in the structural characterization of molecules. Here, we investigated the CCS calibration accuracy with traveling waves ion mobility spectrometry (TWIMS) separations in structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM) using three sets of calibrants. A series of singly negatively-charged phospholipids and bile acids were calibrated in nitrogen buffer gas using two different TW waveform profiles (square and sine) and amplitudes (20 V0-p, 25 V0-p, and 30 V 0-p ). The calibration errors for the three calibrant sets Agilent tuning mixture and polyalanine, and one assembled in-house showed negligible differences using a sine-shaped TW waveform. Furthermore, calibration errors were all within 1-2 % of the DTIMS measurements, with lower errors for sine waveforms, presumably due to the lower average and maximum fields experienced by ions. Finally, ultrahigh resolution multi-pass (long path length) SLIM TWIMS demonstrated improved CCS calibration for phospholipid and bile acid isomers.

A Miniature Multilevel Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations Ion Mobility Spectrometer with Wide Mobility Range Separation Capabilities

Here, ion mobility spectrometry employing structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM-IMS) is an attractive gas-phase separation technique due to its ability to achieve unprecedented effective ion path lengths (>1 km) and IMS resolving powers in a small footprint. The emergence of multilevel SLIM technology, where ions are transferred between vertically stacked SLIM electrode surfaces, has subsequently allowed for ultralong single pass path lengths (>40 m) to be achieved, enabling ultrahigh resolution IMS measurements to be performed over the entire mobility range in a single experiment. The implementation of multiple SLIM levels requires very little additional space for the SLIM system, and we developed a miniature SLIM module (miniSLIM) based on multilevel SLIM technology and report the performance here. The module is 11.1 cm x 6.7 cm x 1.4 cm (L x W x H) and consists of three SLIM levels totaling 1-meter path length. Ion trajectory simulations were used to optimize the SLIM board spacings and SLIM board thicknesses of the miniSLIM IMS system. Methods of efficiently transferring ions between SLIM levels were examined and a new approach using asymmetric traveling waves (TWs) was developed and implemented in the miniSLIM. We experimentally characterized the performance of the --meter multilevel miniSLIM IMS-MS relative to a drift tube IM--MS using an Agilent tuning mixture and tetraalkylammonium cations. The 1-meter miniSLIM achieved a resolving power of up to 131 (CCS/ΔCCS), ~1.5x higher than achievable with a 78 cm path length drift tube IMS, and successfully transmitted the entire ion mobility range in a single separation. We also demonstrated the miniSLIM’s performance as a standalone IMS system (i.e., without MS), showing baseline separation between Agilent tuning mixture cations with the full mobility range observed, and a standard peptide mixture with different charge states readily differentiated. Overall the miniSLIM provides a compact alternative to high performance IMS instruments possessing similar path lengths.

A Dual-Gated Structures for Lossless Ion Manipulations-Ion Mobility Orbitrap Mass Spectrometry Platform for Combined Ultra-High-Resolution Molecular Analysis

High-resolution ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry (HR-IMS-MS) instruments have enormously advanced the ability to characterize complex biological mixtures. Unfortunately, HR-IMS and HR-MS measurements are typically performed independently due to mismatches in analysis time scales. Here we overcome this limitation by using a dual-gated ion injection approach to couple an 11-meter path length structures for lossless ion manipulations (SLIM) module to a Q-Exactive Plus Orbitrap MS. The dual-gate setup was implemented by placing one ion gate before the SLIM module and a second ion gate after. The dual-gated ion injection approach allowed the new SLIM-Orbitrap platform to simultaneously perform an 11-meter SLIM separation, Orbitrap mass analysis using the highest selectable mass resolution setting (up to 140k), and high-energy collision induced dissociation (HCD) in ~25 minutes over an $m/z$ range of ~1500 amu. The SLIM-Orbitrap was initially characterized using a mixture of standard phosphazene cations and demonstrated an average SLIM CCS resolving power (Rp CCS ) of ~218 and SLIM peak capacity of ~156 while simultaneously obtaining high mass resolutions. SLIM-Orbitrap analysis with fragmentation was then performed on mixtures of standard peptides and two reverse peptides (SDGRG 1+ , GRGDS 1+ , Rp CCS = 305) to demonstrate the utility of combined HR-IMS-MS/MS measurements for peptide identification. Our new HR-IMS-MS/MS capability was further demonstrated by analyzing a complex lipid mixture and showcasing SLIM separations on isobaric lipids. In conclusion, this new SLIM-Orbitrap platform demonstrates a critical new capability for proteomics and lipidomics applications, and the high-resolution multimodal data obtainable with this system establishes the foundation for reference-free identification of unknown ion structures.
