Simulation and Measurement of Stray Fields for the Manipulation of Spin Qubits in One- and Two-Dimensional Arrays.

The inhomogeneous magnetic stray field of micromagnets has been extensively used to manipulate electron spin qubits. By means of micromagnetic simulations and scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscopy, we show that the polycrystallinity of the magnet and nonuniform magnetization significantly impact the stray field and corresponding qubit properties. The random orientation of the crystal axis in polycrystalline Co magnets alters the qubit frequencies by up to 0.

Imaging Strain-Controlled Magnetic Reversal in Thin CrSBr.

Two-dimensional materials are extraordinarily sensitive to external stimuli, making them ideal for studying fundamental properties and for engineering devices with new functionalities. One such stimulus, strain, affects the magnetic properties of the layered magnetic semiconductor CrSBr to such a degree that it can induce a reversible antiferromagnetic-to-ferromagnetic phase transition. Using scanning SQUID-on-lever microscopy, we directly image the effects of spatially inhomogeneous strain on the magnetization of layered CrSBr, as it is polarized by a field applied along its easy axis.

Long-range nontopological edge currents in charge-neutral graphene.

Van der Waals heterostructures display numerous unique electronic properties. Nonlocal measurements, wherein a voltage is measured at contacts placed far away from the expected classical flow of charge carriers, have been widely used in the search for novel transport mechanisms, including dissipationless spin and valley transport, topological charge-neutral currents, hydrodynamic flows and helical edge modes. Monolayer, bilayer and few-layer graphene, transition-metal dichalcogenides and moiré superlattices have been found to display pronounced nonlocal effects.

Mapping the twist-angle disorder and Landau levels in magic-angle graphene.

The recently discovered flat electronic bands and strongly correlated and superconducting phases in magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MATBG) crucially depend on the interlayer twist angle, θ. Although control of the global θ with a precision of about 0.1 degrees has been demonstrated, little information is available on the distribution of the local twist angles.
