As a new, to the best of our knowledge, alternative to the saturated vapor-cell-based Faraday anomalous dispersion optical filter (FADOF), the FADOF based on a hollow cathode lamp (HCL-FADOF) not only enables the FADOF to work normally at room temperature without heating, but also has some new features due to the inherent characteristics of the HCL. In this Letter, we implement an HCL-FADOF operating on the rubidium D2 line and experimentally investigate the effect of ambient temperature on its performance and cold-start characteristics. Results show that the HCL-FADOF can provide excellent stability within a large temperature range, even at temperatures below 0°C. A comparison of the start performance between the HCL-FADOF and FADOF using saturated vapor cells is also provided. This work shows unique features of the HCL-FADOF in a low-temperature environment and its quick-start advantage, which provides a solid foundation for extensive applications.

The magnetic order of plutonium hydrides (PuH) has long been a subject of controversy, both experimentally and theoretically. The magnetic, structural, electronic, and thermodynamic properties of PuH are investigated using Hubbard-corrected density functional theory (DFT + ), with derived from linear response calculations. To address the issue of electronic metastable states within DFT + , we employ an occupation matrix control method as well as allowing 5f orbitals to break the structural symmetry.

Synthesis of predicted materials is the key and final step needed to realize a vision of computationally accelerated materials discovery. Because so many materials have been previously synthesized, one would anticipate that text-mining synthesis recipes from the literature would yield a valuable dataset to train machine-learning models that can predict synthesis recipes for new materials. Between 2016 and 2019, the corresponding author (Wenhao Sun) participated in efforts to text-mine 31 782 solid-state synthesis recipes and 35 675 solution-based synthesis recipes from the literature.

We report the first observation of the spin Hall conductivity spectrum in GaAs at room temperature. Our terahertz polarimetry with a precision of several μrads resolves the Faraday rotation of terahertz pulses arising from the inverse spin Hall effect of optically injected spin-polarized electrons. The obtained spin Hall conductivity spectrum exhibits an excellent quantitative agreement with theory, demonstrating a crossover in the dominant origin from impurity scattering in the dc regime to the intrinsic Berry-curvature mechanism in the terahertz regime.

Magnetic topological insulators are a fertile platform for studying the interplay between magnetism and topology. The unique electronic band structure can induce exotic transport and optical properties. However, a comprehensive optical study at both near-infrared and terahertz frequencies has been lacking.
