Pressure-tuned quantum criticality in the large-D antiferromagnet DTN - Nature Communications
Abstract Strongly correlated spin systems can be driven to quantum critical points via various routes. In particular, gapped quantum antiferromagnets can undergo phase transitions into a magnetically ordered state with applied pressure or magnetic field, acting as tuning parameters. These transitions are characterized by z = 1 or z = 2 dynamical critical exponents, determined by the linear and quadratic low-energy dispersion of spin excitations, respectively.

Strange-metal behaviour in a pure ferromagnetic Kondo lattice
Abstract A wide range of metals exhibit anomalous electrical and thermodynamic properties when tuned to a quantum critical point (QCP), although the origins of such strange metals have posed a long-standing mystery. The frequent association of strange metals with unconventional superconductivity and antiferromagnetic QCPs1,2,3,4 has led to the belief that they are highly entangled quantum states5.
Extremely high conductivity observed in the triple point topological metal MoP
Abstract Weyl and Dirac fermions have created much attention in condensed matter physics and materials science. Recently, several additional distinct types of fermions have been predicted. Here, we report ultra-high electrical conductivity in MoP at low temperature, which has recently been established as a triple point fermion material. We show that the electrical resistivity is 6 nΩ cm at 2 K with a large mean free path of 11 microns.
Daylighting Strategies that Maximize Benefits
Low energy bills, high quality indoor environment, low construction costs — daylighting is one sustainable building strategy that can help achieve all these goals. Based on a calculation I did for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), daylighting strategies can potentially reduce our nation's total energy consumption by 1% with a one- to three-year simple payback.
