Realizing a state of matter in two dimensions has repeatedly proven a novel route of discovering new physical phenomena. Van der Waals (vdW) materials have been at the center of these now extensive research activities. They offer a natural way of producing a monolayer of matter simply by mechanical exfoliation. This wo...

Novel effects induced by nonmagnetic impurities in frustrated magnets and quantum spin liquid represent a highly nontrivial and interesting problem. A theoretical proposal of extended modulated spin structures induced by doping of such magnets, distinct from the well-known skyrmions has attracted significant interest. ...

Superabsorption refers to a 'super' version of absorption just like superradiance is a 'super' version of emission. In superabsorption, correlated atoms collectively absorb light. The light can be absorbed completely and the number of absorbed photons is proportional to the square of the number of atoms. Although super...

[Prof. Cheol-Hwan Park] Outstanding Referees of the American Physical Society Mar 3, 2021 l Hit 521

Professor Cheol-Hwan Park is selected and honored with the Outstanding Referee designation of the American Physical Society (APS). APS has selected 151 Outstanding Referees for 2021 who have demo...

Force reconstruction in dynamic force microscopy (DFM) is a nontrivial problem that requires deconvolution of integrals. However, conventional reconstruction methods, which recover forces from single-frequency motion of the cantilever at its resonance, exhibit non-negligible error and reconstruction instability in the ...

We propose a route to achieve odd-parity spin-triplet (OPST) superconductivity in metallic collinear antiferromagnets with inversion symmetry. Owing to the existence of hidden antiunitary symmetry, which we call the effective time-reversal symmetry (eTRS), the Fermi surfaces of ordinary antiferromagnetic metals are gen...

Application of two-dimensional (2D) organic–inorganic hybrid halide perovskites in optoelectronic devices requires a detailed understanding of the local structural features including the Pb–I bonding in the 2D layers and the organic–inorganic interaction between the organic spacer molecules and the pe...

We report measurements of the thermal Hall effect in single crystals of both pristine and isotopically substituted strontium titanate. We discovered a two orders of magnitude difference in the thermal Hall conductivity between SrTi16O3 and 18O-enriched SrTi18O3 samples. In most temperature ranges, the magnitude of ther...

Maskless photolithography based on the digital micromirror device (DMD), a two-dimensional micromirror array, is considered the next-generation low-cost lithographic technology. However, the DMD-based digital photolithography has been implemented only for micrometre-scale pattern generation, whereas sophisticated photo...

We propose an all-linear-optical scheme to ballistically generate a cluster state for measurement-based topological fault-tolerant quantum computation using hybrid photonic qubits entangled in a continuous-discrete domain. Availability of near-deterministic Bell-state measurements on hybrid qubits is exploited for this...
