It was found that a small amount of nitrogen addition facilitated the glass formation by suppressing formation of the competing eutectic structure. Unlike large atomic size elements such as Hf and Pd which usually deteriorate specific strength, nitrogen can also increase the specific strength of the current Ti-based BMGs. The results are not only helpful for understanding glass-forming ability in general, but also useful in developing cost-effective, high-performance Ti-based bulk metallic glasses with enhanced glass-forming ability.展开更多

Here we propose to establish a universal non-equilibrium characterization of the equilibrium topological quantum phases classified by integers, and further propose the high-precision dynamical schemes to detect such states. The framework of the dynamical classification theory consists of basic theorems. First, we uncover that classifying a d-dimensional(dD) gapped topological phase of generic multibands can reduce to a(d-1)D invariant defined on so-called band inversion surfaces(BISs), rendering a bulk-surface duality which simplifies the topological characterization. Further, we show in quenching across phase boundary the(pseudo) spin dynamics to exhibit unique topological patterns on BISs, which are attributed to the post-quench bulk topology and manifest a dynamical bulk-surface correspondence. For this the topological phase is classified by a dynamical topological invariant measured from an emergent dynamical spintexture field on the BISs. Applications to quenching experiments on feasible models are proposed and studied, demonstrating the new experimental strategies to detect topological phases with high feasibility. This work opens a broad new direction to classify and detect topological phases by non-equilibrium quantum dynamics.展开更多

As a firstly discovered Weyl semimetal,Ta As crystal possesses 12 pairs of Weyl points in the momentum space,which are topologically protected against small perturbations. Here,we report for the first time the tip induced superconductivity on Ta As crystal by point contact spectroscopy. The zero bias conductance peak as well as a conductance plateau with double conductance peaks and sharp double dips are observed in the point contact spectra simultaneously,indicating unconventional superconductivity. Our further theoretical study suggests that the induced superconductivity may have nontrivial topology. The present work opens a new route in investigating the novel superconducting states based on Weyl materials.展开更多

Here we demonstrate how such fundamental Weyl semimetal can be realized in a maneuverable optical Raman lattice, with which the three-dimensional(3D) spin-orbit(SO) coupling is synthesised for ultracold atoms. In addition, a new novel Weyl phase with coexisting Weyl nodal points and nodal ring is also predicted here, and is shown to be protected by nontrivial linking numbers. We further propose feasible techniques to precisely resolve 3D Weyl band topology through 2D equilibrium and dynamical measurements. This work leads to the first realization of the most fundamental Weyl semimetal band and the 3D SO coupling for ultracold quantum gases, which are respectively the significant issues in the condensed matter and ultracold atom physics.展开更多

It was shown recently that. an exotic topological superradiant state exists in a two-component degenerate Fermi gas coupled to a cavity, where local order parameters coexist with global topological invariants. In this work, we characterize in detail various properties of this exotic state, focusing on the feedback interactions between the atoms and the cavity field. In particular, we demonstrate that cavity-induced interband coupling plays a crucial role in inducing the topological phase transition between the conventional and topological superradiant states. We analyze the interesting signatures in the cavity field left by the closing and reopening of the atomic bulk gap across the topological phase boundary and discuss the robustness of the topological superradiant state by investigating the steady-state phase diagram under various conditions. Furthermore, we consider the interaction effect and discuss the interplay between the pairing order in atomic ensembles and the superradiance of the cavity mode. Our work provides many valuable insights into the unique cavity-atom hybrid system under study and is helpful for future experimental exploration of the topological superradiant state.展开更多

文摘Ultra-high temperature ceramics(UHTCs) offer great potential for applications in extreme service environments,such as hypersonic vehicles,rockets and re-entry spacecraft.However,the severe ablation caused by highspeed heat flow scouring and high-temperature oxidation limits the engineering application of UHTCs.In this work,we report a novel high-entropy UHTC(Ti_(0.2)Zr_(0.2)V_(0.2)Nb_(0.2)Cr_(0.2))(C_(0.5)N_(0.5)),which exhibits superior ablation resistance and light weight compared with traditional UHTCs.Specifically,at a temperature of 2650 K,the mass ablation rate of the material was measured as1.025×10^(-2)g·s^(-1),and the density was calculated to be 6.7 g·cm^(-3).The impressive ablation resistance of(Ti_(0.2)Zr_(0.2)V_(0.2)Nb_(0.2)Cr_(0.2))(C_(0.5)N_(0.5)) is attributed to the incorporation of a self-healing mechanism,which is associated with the in-situ formation of a medium-entropy oxide(TiVCr)O_(2) during the ablation process.The mediumentropy oxide can seal pores and cracks to retard oxygen diffusion and prevent the material from fragmentation,thereby resulting in outstanding ablation resistance.

文摘The Mott insulator and superfluid phase transition is one of the most prominent phenomena in ultracold atoms.We report the observation of a novel 2D quantum phase transition between the Mott insulator andπsuperfluid in a shaking optical lattice.In the deep optical lattice regime,the lowest S band can be tuned to Mott phase,while the higher P_(x,y)bands are itinerant for having larger bandwidth.Through a shaking technique coupling the s-orbital to p_(x,y)-orbital states,we experimentally observe the transition between the states of the S and P_(x,y)bands,leading to a quantum phase transition from two-dimensional s-orbital Mott phase to the p_(x,y)-orbital superfluid which condensed at(π,π)momentum.Using the band-mapping method,we also observe the changes of atomic population in different energy bands during the transition,and the experimental results are well consistent with theoretical expectations.

文摘To meet the increasing demand for continuously enhancing engineering performance and energy efficiency in a variety of aerospace and energy applications,structural materials with high strength at ultra-high temperatures are urgently required.In the past decade,refractory multi-principal element alloys(RMPEAs),particularly those containing elements with high melting temperatures(T_(m))such as W and Ta(hereafter denoted as WTa-RMPEAs),have garnered extensive interest due to their exceptional strengths and thermally stability at high temperatures.Characterized by high T_(m),sluggish diffusion,and severe lattice distortion,WTa-RMPEAs exhibit chemical composition fluctuations at different scales,leading to unique mechanical properties and deformation behavior.In this paper,an initial summary is provided of the mechanical properties of typical WTa-RMPEAs at room and high temperatures and the differences in deformation behavior and underlying mechanisms between RMPEAs and conventional alloys are discussed.Additionally,strengthening and toughening strategies and the suggested deformation mechanisms were reviewed.Finally,the challenges in revealing the actual deformation mechanism of WTa-RMPEAs were described,and a brief perspective on the future research of the mechanical behavior of WTa-RMPEAs was proposed.

文摘Majorana zero modes(MZMs)are the most intensively studied non-Abelian anyons.The Dirac fermion zero modes in topological insulators,which are symmetry-protected doubling of MZMs under fermion number conservation,offer an alternative approach to explore non-Abelian anyons.However,a unified model that elucidates the braiding statistics of these types of topological zero modes remains absent.We show that the minimal Kitaev chain model beyond fine-tuning regime provides a unified characterization of the non-Abelian statistics of both MZMs and Dirac fermion zero modes in different parameter regimes.In particular,we introduce a minimal tri-junction setting based on the minimal Kitaev chain model and show it facilitates the unified scheme of braiding Dirac fermion zero modes,as well as the MZMs in the assistance of a Dirac mode.This unified minimal model provides deeper insights into non-Abelian statistics,demonstrating that the non-Abelian braiding of MZMs can be continuously extended to encompass Dirac fermion zero modes.The minimal Kitaev chain has been realized in coupled quantum dots(Nature 614,445(2023);Nature 641,890(2025)).Our extension,which demonstrates novel nontrivial phases with non-Abelian MZM pairs and Dirac zero modes emerging in the broader parameter regimes without fine-tuning,expands the accessible experimental parameter space and enhances the feasibility of observing non-Abelian statistics in the minimal Kitaev chain model.

文摘Topological phase of matter is now a mainstream of research in condensed matter physics, of which the classification, synthesis, and detection of topological states have brought excitements over the recent decade while remain incomplete with ongoing challenges in both theory and experiment. Here we propose to establish a universal non-equilibrium characterization of the equilibrium topological quantum phases classified by integers, and further propose the high-precision dynamical schemes to detect such states. The framework of the dynamical classification theory consists of basic theorems. First, we uncover that classifying a d-dimensional(dD) gapped topological phase of generic multibands can reduce to a(d-1)D invariant defined on so-called band inversion surfaces(BISs), rendering a bulk-surface duality which simplifies the topological characterization. Further, we show in quenching across phase boundary the(pseudo) spin dynamics to exhibit unique topological patterns on BISs, which are attributed to the post-quench bulk topology and manifest a dynamical bulk-surface correspondence. For this the topological phase is classified by a dynamical topological invariant measured from an emergent dynamical spintexture field on the BISs. Applications to quenching experiments on feasible models are proposed and studied, demonstrating the new experimental strategies to detect topological phases with high feasibility. This work opens a broad new direction to classify and detect topological phases by non-equilibrium quantum dynamics.

文摘Weyl fermion is a massless Dirac fermion with definite chirality,which has been long pursued since 1929.Though it has not been observed as a fundamental particle in nature,Weyl fermion can be realized as low-energy excitation around Weyl point in Weyl semimetal,which possesses Weyl fermion cones in the bulk and nontrivial Fermi arc states on the surface. As a firstly discovered Weyl semimetal,Ta As crystal possesses 12 pairs of Weyl points in the momentum space,which are topologically protected against small perturbations. Here,we report for the first time the tip induced superconductivity on Ta As crystal by point contact spectroscopy. The zero bias conductance peak as well as a conductance plateau with double conductance peaks and sharp double dips are observed in the point contact spectra simultaneously,indicating unconventional superconductivity. Our further theoretical study suggests that the induced superconductivity may have nontrivial topology. The present work opens a new route in investigating the novel superconducting states based on Weyl materials.

文摘There is an immense effort in search for various types of Weyl semimetals, of which the most fundamental phase consists of the minimal number of i.e. two Weyl points, but is hard to engineer in solids. Here we demonstrate how such fundamental Weyl semimetal can be realized in a maneuverable optical Raman lattice, with which the three-dimensional(3D) spin-orbit(SO) coupling is synthesised for ultracold atoms. In addition, a new novel Weyl phase with coexisting Weyl nodal points and nodal ring is also predicted here, and is shown to be protected by nontrivial linking numbers. We further propose feasible techniques to precisely resolve 3D Weyl band topology through 2D equilibrium and dynamical measurements. This work leads to the first realization of the most fundamental Weyl semimetal band and the 3D SO coupling for ultracold quantum gases, which are respectively the significant issues in the condensed matter and ultracold atom physics.

文摘Measuring topological invariants is an essential task in characterizing topological phases of matter.They are usually obtained from the number of edge states due to the bulk-edge correspondence or from interference since they are integrals of the geometric phases in the energy band.It is commonly believed that the bulk band structures could not be directly used to obtain the topological invariants.Here,we implement the experimental extraction of Zak phase from the bulk band structures of a Su-Schrieffer-Heeger(SSH)model in the synthetic frequency dimension.Such synthetic SSH lattices are constructed in the frequency axis of light,by controlling the coupling strengths between the symmetric and antisymmetric supermodes of two bichromatically driven rings.We measure the transmission spectra and obtain the projection of the time-resolved band structure on lattice sites,where a strong contrast between the non-trivial and trivial topological phases is observed.The topological Zak phase is naturally encoded in the bulk band structures of the synthetic SSH lattices,which can hence be experimentally extracted from the transmission spectra in a fiber-based modulated ring platform using a laser with telecom wavelength.Our method of extracting topological phases from the bulk band structure can be further extended to characterize topological invariants in higher dimensions,while the exhibited trivial and non-trivial transmission spectra from the topological transition may find future applications in optical communications.

文摘The notion of topological phases extended to dynamical systems stimulates extensive studies,of which the characterization of nonequilibrium topological invariants is a central issue and usually necessitates the information of quantum dynamics in both the time and momentum dimensions.Here,we propose the topological holographic quench dynamics in synthetic dimension,and also show it provides a highly efficient scheme to characterize photonic topological phases.A pseudospin model is constructed with ring resonators in a synthetic lattice formed by frequencies of light,and the quench dynamics is induced by initializing a trivial state,which evolves under a topological Hamiltonian.Our key prediction is that the complete topological information of the Hamiltonian is encoded in quench dynamics solely in the time dimension,and is further mapped to lower-dimensional space,manifesting the holographic features of the dynamics.In particular,two fundamental time scales emerge in the dynamical evolution,with one mimicking the topological band on the momentum dimension and the other characterizing the residue time evolution of the state after the quench.For this,a universal duality between the quench dynamics and the equilibrium topological phase of the spin model is obtained in the time dimension by extracting information from the field evolution dynamics in modulated ring systems in simulations.This work also shows that the photonic synthetic frequency dimension provides an efficient and powerful way to explore the topological nonequilibrium dynamics.

文摘The free-fermion topological phases with Z_(2)invariants cover a broad range of topological states,including the time-reversal invariant topological insulators,and are defined on the equilibrium ground states.Whether such equilibrium topological phases have universal correspondence to far-from-equilibrium quantum dynamics is a fundamental issue of both theoretical and experimental importance.Here we uncover the universal topological quench dynamics linking to these equilibrium topological phases of different dimensionality and symmetry classes in the tenfold way,with a general framework being established.We show a novel result that a generic d-dimensional topological phase represented by Dirac type Hamiltonian and with Z_(2)invariant defined on high symmetry momenta can be characterized by topology reduced to certain arbitrary discrete momenta of Brillouin zone called the highest-order bandinversion surfaces.Such dimension-reduced topology has unique correspondence to the topological pattern emerging in far-from-equilibrium quantum dynamics by quenching the system from trivial phase to the topological regime,rendering the dynamical hallmark of the equilibrium topological phase.This work completes the dynamical characterization for the full tenfold classes of topological phases,which can be partially extended to even broader topological phases protected by lattice symmetries and in non-Dirac type systems,and shall advance widely the research in theory and experiment.

文摘The metallic tip-induced superconductivity in normal Weyl semimetal offers a promising platform to study topological superconductivity,which is currently a research focus in condensed matter physics.Here we experimentally uncover that unconventional superconductivity can be induced by hard point contact(PC)method of ferromagnetic tips in Ta As single crystals.The magneto-transport measurements of the ferromagnetic tip-induced superconducting(FTISC)states exhibit the quantum oscillations,which reveal that the superconductivity is induced in the topologically nontrivial Fermi surface of the Weyl semimetal,and show compatibility of ferromagnetism and induced superconductivity.We further measure the point contact spectra(PCS)of tunneling transport for FTISC states which are potentially of nontrivial topology.Considering that the magnetic Weyl semimetal with novel superconductivity is hard to realize in experiment,our results show a new route to investigate the unconventional superconductivity by combining the topological semimetal with ferromagnetism through hard PC method.
文摘Coherently driven atomic gases inside optical cavities hold great promise for generating rich dynam- ics and exotic states of matter. It was shown recently that. an exotic topological superradiant state exists in a two-component degenerate Fermi gas coupled to a cavity, where local order parameters coexist with global topological invariants. In this work, we characterize in detail various properties of this exotic state, focusing on the feedback interactions between the atoms and the cavity field. In particular, we demonstrate that cavity-induced interband coupling plays a crucial role in inducing the topological phase transition between the conventional and topological superradiant states. We analyze the interesting signatures in the cavity field left by the closing and reopening of the atomic bulk gap across the topological phase boundary and discuss the robustness of the topological superradiant state by investigating the steady-state phase diagram under various conditions. Furthermore, we consider the interaction effect and discuss the interplay between the pairing order in atomic ensembles and the superradiance of the cavity mode. Our work provides many valuable insights into the unique cavity-atom hybrid system under study and is helpful for future experimental exploration of the topological superradiant state.

文摘To investigate the band structure is one of the key approaches to study the fundamental properties of a novel material.We report here the precision band mapping of a 2-dimensional(2D) spin-orbit(SO) coupling in an optical lattice.By applying the microwave spin-injection spectroscopy, the band structure and spin-polarization distribution are achieved simultaneously.The band topology is also addressed with observing the band gap close and re-open at the Dirac points.Furthermore, the lattice depth and the Raman coupling strength are precisely calibrated with relative errors in the order of 10^(-3).Our approach could also be applied for exploring the exotic topological phases with even higher dimensional system.

文摘The realization of spin-orbit-coupled ultracold gases has driven a wide range of research and is typically based on the rotating wave approximation(RWA).By neglecting the counter-rotating terms,RWA characterizes a single near-resonant spin-orbit(SO)coupling in a two-level system.Here,we propose and experimentally realize a new scheme for achieving a pair of two-dimensional(2D)SO couplings for ultracold fermions beyond RWA.This work not only realizes the first anomalous Floquet topological Fermi gas beyond RWA,but also significantly improves the lifetime of the 2D-SO-coupled Fermi gas.Based on pump-probe quench measurements,we observe a deterministic phase relation between two sets of SO couplings,which is characteristic of our beyond-RWA scheme and enables the two SO couplings to be simultaneously tuned to the optimum 2D configurations.We observe intriguing band topology by measuring two-ring band-inversion surfaces,quantitatively consistent with a Floquet topological Fermi gas in the regime of high Chern numbers.Our study can open an avenue to explore exotic SO physics and anomalous topological states based on long-lived SO-coupled ultracold fermions.
