摘要:

The controlled emergence of unconventional order in low-dimensional quantum materials is a central theme in current condensed-matter research. In this context, the air-stable van der Waals magnetic semiconductor CrSBr provides an attractive platform, combining anisotropic electronic properties with layered magnetism. Below its Néel temperature of 132 K, CrSBr exhibits A-type antiferromagnetic order, consisting of ferromagnetic layers coupled antiferromagnetically along the stacking direction.

In this contribution, I will show how ion irradiation can be used as a tuning knob to drive and control magnetic phase transitions in CrSBr. We observe the emergence of a ferromagnetic phase from the antiferromagnetic ground state at moderate irradiation fluences, followed by its gradual suppression as disorder increases further. By combining structural analysis with density-functional-theory calculations, we identify irradiation-induced interstitial defects, defect-induced magnetic reconstruction, and a transition into a new crystalline phase.

These results establish defect engineering as a powerful route to manipulate symmetry-broken magnetic states in a layered quantum material. More broadly, the results demonstrate how controlled defect landscapes can be exploited to access and spatially pattern emergent magnetic phases in van der Waals quantum materials.

摘要:

Ultrafast cameras, using ultrashort light flashes, allow the capture of ultrafast motion. In atoms or molecules, attosecond light pulses are needed to capture the motion of electrons (1 as = 10-18 s). This presentation will highlight the physics behind the generation and application of attosecond light pulses (Nobel Prize in Physics 2023).

摘要:

Most of our understanding of the activity and specificity of enzymes focuses on their active site, which is a small part of their structure in direct interaction with the substrate. Yet, as illustrated by many examples of protein engineering success and failure, enzymatic function often depends crucially on residues away from the active site. Using the well-known example of serine proteases, which display such poorly understood yet pervasive long-range effects, we explore the sequence-function relationship systematically through large-scale experiments and statistical evolutionary analysis. I will present an experimental approach based on droplet microfluidics to analyze the effect of nearly all single mutations of the protease trypsin on its activity towards peptide substrates. The substrate specificity profile of this enzyme is extremely robust to single mutations, as we did not detect any activity towards new substrates in the single mutant library. Substrate specificity can only be fine-tuned towards the initial substrates by single mutations at a handful of residues in and out of the active site. These rare specificity fine-tuning residues are consistent with the analysis of pairwise residue coevolution in the protease family. Further, statistical modeling of pairwise residue coevolution allows engineering trypsin specificity towards new substrates with combinations of mutations.

摘要:

We derive Floquet theory from quantum geometry. We identify quasienergy folding as a consequence of a broken gauge group of the adiabatic gauge potential U(1)??. Fixing instead the gauge freedom using the parallel-transport gauge uniquely decomposes Floquet dynamics into a purely geometric and a purely dynamical evolution. The dynamical average-energy operator provides an unambiguous sorting of the quasienergy spectrum, identifying a Floquet ground state and suggesting a way to define the filling of Floquet-Bloch bands. We exemplify the features of geometric Floquet theory using an exactly solvable XY model and a non-integrable kicked Ising chain. We elucidate the geometric origin of inherently nonequilibrium effects, like the π-quasienergy splitting in discrete time crystals or π-edge modes in anomalous Floquet topological insulators. The spectrum of the average-energy operator is a susceptible indicator for both heating and spatiotemporal symmetry-breaking transitions. Last, we demonstrate that the periodic lab frame Hamiltonian generates transitionless counterdiabatic driving for Floquet eigenstates. This work directly bridges seemingly unrelated areas of nonequilibrium physics.

摘要:

Resonance fluorescence from a coherently driven two-level emitter is conventionally described using mixed-state field correlations. In this talk, I will present a complementary perspective that emerges through few-photon excitation, in which the emitter and its spontaneous emission are described within a unified quantum-state framework. This picture provides an intuitive understanding of how phase coherence and photon antibunching coexist in resonance fluorescence. I will show how the model accounts for a range of recent observations and leads to experimentally testable predictions, including interference between mutually detuned resonance-fluorescence fields, tunable higher-order coherence through interference with laser light, and the synthesis of nonclassical and entangled photonic states using only passive linear interferometry. More generally, this framework offers a useful way to understand resonance fluorescence and its coherence properties, complementary to the conventional field-correlation approach.

摘要:

In various branches of physics, there arises the problem of minimizing a functional F[q(t)] that depends on a t-dependent angular variable q(t), in the presence of a random force f(t). A paradigmatic model for this class of phenomena is provided by balancing an inverted pendulum subjected to a time-dependent horizontal force f(t). The problem is to find an exceptional never-falling trajectory (NFT) q(t) that remains in the upper half-plane for all t. In mathematics, this problem is known as Whitney'?s problem and the existence of the solution has been proved for any f(t). The resulting q(t) is a non-Markovian functional of the force f(t), that prohibits the na?ve use of the Fokker-Planck evolutionary equation.

We have shown that the solution to the Whitney problem, considered over the entire time axis, is unique. This raises the question of describing the statistical properties of this NFT when averaged over an ensemble of random forces. For the white-noise random force, we construct a complete field-theoretical description of the NFT statistics, based in the Parisi-Sourlas supersymmetric representation. After disorder averaging, the action remains local in time that allows reducing the arising functional integral to an effective supersymmetric quantum mechanics. We show that statistics of the NFT is determined by the zero mode of the emerging Hamiltonian. Employing the BRST symmetry, we reduce it to the Fokker-Planch form. The joint probability distribution function of the angle q(t) and its velocity dq(t)/dt is expressed via the Poisson bracket of the zero mode, which is found analytically in the limits of weak and strong noise. We also determine the Lyapunov exponent, describing the divergence of nearby solutions around the NFT. Finally, we discuss the intuitive way of understanding the supersymmetric wave function and relate it to physical observables.
