- Anyons go universalNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02578-x Topological quantum computers are predicted to perform calculations by manipulating quasiparticles known as non-Abelian anyons. A type of non-Abelian anyon that supports universal quantum gates has now been simulated using superconducting qubits.
- Electronic excitations at the plasmon–molecule interfaceNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02537-6 Plasmonic excitations can enhance the interaction between a metal and molecules adsorbed onto its surface. This Review summarizes the different effects involved in this process and places them into a framework based on electron scattering.
- Terahertz spectroscopy of collective charge density wave dynamics at the atomic scaleNature Physics, Published online: 15 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02552-7 The observation of phase modes of charge density wave has been a long-standing challenge. Such low-energy phase excitations have now been seen in a transition metal dichalcogenide.
- On the limitations of the semi-classical picture in high harmonic generationNature Physics, Published online: 11 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02579-w High harmonic generation has long been successfully described using the semi-classical three-step model. However, recent progress has introduced a quantum optical formulation, exposing the limitations of the semi-classical picture.
- Induced superconducting correlations in a quantum anomalous Hall insulatorNature Physics, Published online: 10 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02574-1 The superconducting proximity effect has not been experimentally demonstrated in a quantum anomalous Hall insulator. Now this effect is observed in the chiral edge state of a ferromagnetic topological insulator.
- A way to cross the Andreev bridgeNature Physics, Published online: 10 July 2024; doi:10.1038/s41567-024-02575-0 Inducing superconductivity in quantum anomalous Hall insulators is crucial to realize topological superconductors. Now a study shows superconducting correlations in the quantum anomalous Hall state, which can convert electrons on its one-way path into holes.
