The tunability and twist engineering of van der Waals materials enable the emergence of electronic states not present in individual monolayers. Among them, monolayer 1T-TaS$_2$ is a well-known Mott insulating system, whose star-of-David charge density wave reconstruction realizes an emergent triangular lattice of loca…

Van der Waals (vdW) layered materials with long-range magnetic order have the potential to enable novel optoelectronic and spintronic applications. Among these, CrSBr is an air-stable, direct band gap semiconductor that hosts interlayer antiferromagnetic order, a highly anisotropic electronic structure, and strongly b…

Negative refraction provides a route to steer and focus wave energy flow, but it remains difficult to realize for coherent terahertz (THz) phonons. The difficulty stems from conventional dispersion-based mechanisms, which require strongly anisotropic or negative-curvature dispersions, while the long-wavelength acousti…

Understanding interfacial interactions in two-dimensional heterostructures is crucial for their implementation in future optoelectronic and quantum technologies. Here, we investigate interactions between WSe2 and graphene by comparing 1-5 layer MOCVD-grown WSe2 on graphene/SiC with exfoliated WSe2 on SiO2/Si using Ram…

Multi-Weyl semimetals (mWSMs) are topological quantum materials whose Weyl nodes carry higher monopole charges and exhibit strongly anisotropic dispersions. We investigate the linear and nonlinear magneto-optical transport of tilted type-I mWSMs with arbitrary monopole charge $J$ within a semiclassical Boltzmann frame…

While stacking two type-I quantum spin Hall insulators typically results in a trivial insulator, the behavior of the assembly of type-II quantum spin Hall insulators remains unexplored. In this article, based on calculations of a lattice model, we demonstrate that stacking two type-II quantum spin Hall insulators does…

Magnetism and topology are two major areas of condensed matter physics. The combination of magnetism and topology gives rise to more novel physical effects, which have attracted strongly theoretical and experimental attention. Recently, the concept of altermagnetism has been introduced, characterized by a dual nature:…

Predicting thermal stability during handling and storage is essential for the design of safe and reliable energetic materials. However, experimental measurements vary significantly across laboratories due to differences in protocols and analysis methods, making it difficult to train reliable predictive models. We addr…

The low-temperature density-wave state of La$_3$Ni$_2$O$_7$ hosts pronounced spin-density-wave (SDW) order, while recent experiments further reveal charge redistribution and a concomitant lattice-symmetry lowering. However, the microscopic relationship among spin, charge, and lattice remains unclear. Using first-princ…

We develop a gauge-invariant theory of higher-order magnon quantum geometry probed by two-magnon Raman circular dichroism (RCD). The Raman operator decomposes into Berry connections, covariant derivatives, and products of Berry connections, giving rise to quantum geometric tensors beyond the quantum metric and Berry c…
