Exactly solvable dissipative dynamics and one-form strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking in interacting two-dimensional spin systems

Lucas Sá and Benjamin Béri

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144311 (2025) - Published 24 October, 2025

The authors propose and solve here a general class of interacting two-dimensional spin models that is simultaneously exactly solvable and has rich dissipative dynamics. Through analytical and numerical results, they demonstrate the emergence of mixed-state topological order and hallmark features of interacting many-body quantum dynamics, such as the separation of relaxation timescales and anomalous relaxation.

Kamil Olejník, Zdeněk Kašpar, Jan Zubáč, Sjoerd Telkamp, Andrej Farkaš, Dominik Kriegner, Karel Výborný, Jakub Železný, Zbyněk Šobáň, Peng Zeng, Tomáš Jungwirth, Vít Novák, and Filip Krizek

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144401 (2025) - Published 1 October, 2025

Quench switching of resistance is demonstrated in epitaxial antiferromagnetic Mn2As thin films, previously observed only in CuMnAs. Mn2As shows a stronger resistivity increase – up to several hundred percent at 5 K. Both materials share similar parametric dependencies, with relaxation times scaling directly with their Néel temperatures, confirming the magnetic origin and yielding longer metastable retention in Mn2As. These results establish Cu2Sb-type antiferromagnets, such as Mn2As, as a promising platform for studying and exploiting nonuniform magnetic states.

Consistent surface and bulk magnetic properties of MnBi6Te10 observed by x-ray absorption spectroscopy

A. Tcakaev, V. B. Zabolotnyy, R. J. Green, L. T. Corredor, M. Valvidares, P. Gargiani, E. Weschke, L. C. Folkers, T. R. F. Peixoto, F. Reinert, M. W. Haverkort, A. Isaeva, and V. Hinkov

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144406 (2025) - Published 2 October, 2025

How similar are the surface and bulk in a magnetic topological insulator? The authors combine here surface- and bulk-sensitive x-ray experimental techniques (XAS, XMCD, XMLD) with a novel Fourier-based method to remove complicated backgrounds, and ab initio multiplet ligand field theory (MLFT) modeling of the spectra. This combination shows that MnBi6Te10 exhibits nearly identical surface and bulk electronic and magnetic properties, with a single parameter set reproducing all the spectra. The introduced framework delivers background-resilient quantification of core-level spectra in layered magnets and provides constraints for models of exchange gaps in topological surface states.

Thermodynamic origin of the pressure-induced Invar effect: General criterion and experimental study of Fe68Pd32

E. R. Priesen Reis, P. Guzman, S. H. Lohaus, A. Lin, C. M. Bernal-Choban, B. Fultz, J. Y. Zhao, G. Shen, M. Y. Hu, E. E. Alp, and B. Lavina

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144416 (2025) - Published 10 October, 2025

Pressure alters the balance between magnetic and vibrational contributions to the thermal expansion of Fe68Pd32. Nuclear resonant scattering reveals that these contributions cancel at a pressure P* below the Curie pressure PC, giving a pressure-induced Invar effect. The authors offer a general thermodynamic framework to predict P* in terms of the effect of pressure on the magnetic exchange energy, relative to the Grüneisen parameter.

Transition from antiferromagnets to altermagnets: Symmetry-breaking theory

P. Zhou, X. N. Peng, Y. Z. Hu, B. R. Pan, S. M. Liu, P. B. Lyu, and L. Z. Sun

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144419 (2025) - Published 14 October, 2025

Considering the similar real-space configurations of opposite-spin sublattices in antiferromagnets (AFMs) and altermagnets (AMs), the authors establish here a symmetry-based framework for connecting between AFMs and AMs via spin groups. They find that symmetry breaking of combined inversion or translation with time-reversal symmetry will drive AFM-to-AM phase transitions. The authors not only establish a theoretical framework for the transition but also provide practical approaches utilizing the AFMs achievements for 100 years to obtain AMs, significantly expanding the scope of AM materials for both theoretical studies and future practical applications.

Method of analysis of the spectra obtained by microfocused Brillouin light scattering

N. Benaziz, T. Devolder, and J-P. Adam

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144441 (2025) - Published 29 October, 2025

In microfocused Brillouin light scattering (μ-BLS), light focusing accelerates the measurement, but also merges the response of different spin-wave modes into a single spectrum. To disentangle the contribution of each spin wave, this manuscript reports a comprehensive theoretical model that treats the measured signal as the sum of all back-scattered contributions captured by the microscope objective. Applied to a 50-nm CoFeB film, it reveals how optical parameters, spin-wave dispersion, and mode profiles shape the intensity and line shape of μ-BLS.

Identification of intrinsic and extrinsic in-plane twofold symmetry in CsV3Sb5 via transport measurements

Yu-Chi Yao, Fei Sun, Andrea Capa Salinas, Stephen D. Wilson, Phil D. C. King, and Haijing Zhang

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144511 (2025) - Published 14 October, 2025

Resolving in-plane twofold symmetry in layered superconductors is challenging, as extrinsic effects can easily mimic intrinsic signals. The authors focus here on the kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5, and systematically explore how current direction, magnetic field alignment, and structural domains influence transport measurements. Their study establishes a refined framework to distinguish genuine electronic symmetry breaking from experimental artifacts.

Impact of anharmonicity on the carrier mobility of the Pb-free CsSnBr3 perovskite

Junwen Yin, Olle Hellman, and Samuel Poncé

Phys. Rev. B 112, L140303 (2025) - Published 27 October, 2025

This study computes charge carrier mobilities in the lead-free perovskite CsSnBr3 using temperature-dependent effective potentials and ab initio Boltzmann transport equations. It shows that the harmonic approximation overestimates mobilities [106/256 cm2/(Vs)] compared to anharmonic results [59/145 cm2/(Vs)], due to neglected scattering from soft modes. This work establishes a first-principles workflow for modeling carrier transport in anharmonic perovskites, improving predictive design of efficient halide perovskite solar cells.

Photoinduced frustration modulation in κ-type quantum spin liquid candidates

M. Tepie, F. Glerean, J. Ovčar, S. Priya, K. Miyagawa, H. Taniguchi, K. Kanoda, I. Lončarić, M. Dressel, and M. Mitrano

Phys. Rev. B 112, L140401 (2025) - Published 8 October, 2025

The authors demonstrate here ultrafast vibrational control of electronic properties in two κ-type organic quantum spin liquid candidates. By coherently driving local molecular modes with midinfrared pulses, they reveal nonlinear coupling to long-range phonons that directly modulate the geometric frustration of the triangular lattice. This work introduces a new strategy to tune frustration in quantum materials and control quantum spin liquid states in correlated electron systems.

Confinement-driven renormalization of magnon and phonon spectra in Fe3O4 nanoparticles

Kyle A. Portwin, Pablo Galaviz, David L. Cortie, Dehong Yu, Kirrily C. Rule, and Zhenxiang Cheng

Phys. Rev. B 112, L140406 (2025) - Published 23 October, 2025

The authors reveal here how finite-size confinement reshapes spin and lattice excitations in Fe3O4 nanoparticles using time-of-flight neutron spectroscopy and numerical simulations. Confinement induces surface strain that softens and broadens optical phonons, while surface exchange disorder suppresses acoustic magnon velocities. Molecular dynamics captures size-dependent phonon renormalization, and a reduced-exchange spin-wave model reproduces the magnon behavior. These results establish confinement as a powerful route to tailor spin dynamics and thermal transport in magnetic nanomaterials.

Unraveling the temperature-dependent spin-polarized electron transport in iron via spin-wave Doppler shift

J. Solano, Q. Rossi, J. Robert, M. Lenertz, Y. Henry, B. Gobaut, D. Halley, and M. Bailleul

Phys. Rev. B 112, L140407 (2025) - Published 27 October, 2025

The electric current in epitaxial iron is highly spin-polarized (80%). This is determined by measuring the Doppler shift this current produces on spin waves as function of the temperature. Here, the authors then propose a resistivity model in which electron scattering with phonons, magnons and film interfaces give rise to such large polarization. These results provide a new experimental observable to understand the nontrivial many-body physics of spin-polarized electron scattering in ferromagnetic materials.

The authors offer a general thermodynamic framework to predict P* in terms of the effect of pressure on the magnetic exchange energy, relative to the Grüneisen parameter.

Considering the similar real-space configurations of opposite-spin sublattices in antiferromagnets (AFMs) and altermagnets (AMs), the authors establish here a symmetry-based framework for connecting between AFMs and AMs via spin groups. They find that symmetry breaking of combined inversion or translation with time-reversal symmetry will drive AFM-to-AM phase transitions. The authors not only establish a theoretical framework for the transition but also provide practical approaches utilizing the AFMs achievements for 100 years to obtain AMs, significantly expanding the scope of AM materials for both theoretical studies and future practical applications.

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144441 (2025) - Published 29 October, 2025

In microfocused Brillouin light scattering (μ-BLS), light focusing accelerates the measurement, but also merges the response of different spin-wave modes into a single spectrum. To disentangle the contribution of each spin wave, this manuscript reports a comprehensive theoretical model that treats the measured signal as the sum of all back-scattered contributions captured by the microscope objective. Applied to a 50-nm CoFeB film, it reveals how optical parameters, spin-wave dispersion, and mode profiles shape the intensity and line shape of μ-BLS.

Phys. Rev. B 112, 144511 (2025) - Published 14 October, 2025

Resolving in-plane twofold symmetry in layered superconductors is challenging, as extrinsic effects can easily mimic intrinsic signals. The authors focus here on the kagome superconductor CsV3Sb5, and systematically explore how current direction, magnetic field alignment, and structural domains influence transport measurements. Their study establishes a refined framework to distinguish genuine electronic symmetry breaking from experimental artifacts.
