Sample preparation
HeLa cells (provided by Prof. Masahiko Harata at Tohoku University) were seeded on a 0.15-mm-thick film-bottom dish and cultured in Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium (Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum and…

Study on electronic transport and optoelectronic properties of semiconductor 2D Ge₂Y₂ (Y = As, P, N)
Electronic structure of Ge₂Y₂ monolayers
The ground-state crystal structures of fully relaxed Ge₂Y₂ (Y = As, P, N) monolayers are shown in Fig. 1a and b. Each Ge₂Y₂ unit cell contains 4 atoms: 2 Ge atoms and 2 Y atoms. The x and y…

Dynamics of a helical vortex ring interacting with a vortex line
Model
At sufficiently low temperatures, the dynamics of 3D BECs can be described by the time-dependent GP equation,
$$i\hslash \frac{\partial \psi }{\partial t}=\left(-\frac{{\hslash }^{2}}{2m}{\nabla }^{2}+{V}_{{{\rm{trap}}}}+g{\left\vert \psi…

Experimental observation of quantum mechanical fluorine tunnelling
Matrix-Isolation Experiments
Figure 1 shows Ne-matrix infrared spectra in the regions from 500 to 580 cm−1 and from 830 to 870 cm−1 that were obtained after co-deposition of laser-ablated potassium fluoride with 1% F2 in solid neon at 5K. The…

Superconductivity and a van Hove singularity confined to the surface of a topological semimetal
We begin our discussion with an examination of the electronic band structure of ZrAs2. ZrAs2 belongs to the nonsymmorphic space group Pnma (No. 62 \({D}_{2h}^{16}\)) (Fig. 1a), which is known to host Dirac nodal lines22,46; the sample…

Skyrmion stabilisation and critical behaviour in tellurium-doped Cu2OSeO3
High-resolution synchrotron pXRD patterns for the polycrystalline Cu2OSe1−xTexO3 samples are included in Supplementary Fig. 1a to show the phase purity and structure of the samples synthesised. Upon successfully doping Te ions into the Se…

Beating the Ramsey limit on sensing with deterministic qubit control
Ramsey interferometry1 has been long established as the most sensitive measure of a qubit’s frequency2. In a Ramsey measurement, a qubit is prepared in a superposition of energy states, allowed to evolve freely and acquire phase, and then…
