RAS is a non-destructive optical probe in which linearly polarised light is at normal incidence to a sample’s surface. The difference in reflectance (\(\Delta r\)) along two orthogonal axes of a surface plane (x, y)32 is measured. The RAS unit…

Emergence of Meron Kekulé lattices in twisted Néel antiferromagnets
AFM domain array
We construct twisted bilayer Néel antiferromagnets by rotating two magnetic layers in a honeycomb lattice with a relative twist angle (Fig. 2a). These twisted magnets can be described using a Heisenberg spin model given by

Anisotropic chemical bonding of lanthanide-OH molecules
The DyOH and ErOH bond and zero field splittings
We begin by making some general observations about our triatomic systems. Heavy-element-containing molecular systems are difficult to model as relativistic electronic-structure methods are required….

Magnetization switching driven by magnonic spin dissipation
Fundamental mechanism of SOTs driven by magnonic spin dissipation
Our approach employs a heterostructure composed of an FM metal and an antiferromagnetic insulator (AFI). Unlike conventional methods relying on external spin injection from heavy…

Measuring error rates of mid-circuit measurements
QIRB circuits
Conceptually, QIRB works by extending the Pauli-tracking approach underlying both binary RB and direct fidelity estimation to circuits with mid-circuit measurements (see Supplementary Note 1). An n-qubit QIRB circuit is designed so…

Zero-field chiral edge transport in an intrinsic magnetic topological insulator MnBi2Te4
Four-terminal electrical measurements at zero magnetic field
First, we performed four-terminal electrical transport measurements to investigate our device. The structure of device is illustrated in Fig. 1a. We use the Al2O3-assisted exfoliation…

Thermal Marangoni natural convection enables directional transport across immiscible liquids
Observation of Marangoni natural convection
A sapphire cubic reactor with thermally conductive sidewalls and a nearly adiabatic bottom, as detailed in the Methods section (Supplementary Fig. 1a, d, Supplementary Note 1), was employed for…

The random cascading origin of abrupt transitions in interdependent systems
Experimental setup
Our ISN system is composed of two coupled amorphous indium oxide (a – InO) disordered 2D superconducting networks, each containing a grid of \({{\mathscr{N}}}=L\times L\) segments with L being the linear size of the system (see…
