Since the achievement of quantum degeneracy in gases of chromium atoms in 2004, the
experimental investigation of ultracold gases made of highly magnetic atoms has …

Nanoscopic chiroptics studies the spin-dependent asymmetric light–matter interactions at
the nanoscale, where the asymmetry can stem from the intrinsic properties of materials …

Translation of chirality and asymmetry across structural motifs and length scales plays a
fundamental role in nature, enabling unique functionalities in contexts ranging from …

Bismuth telluride is the working material for most Peltier cooling devices and thermoelectric
generators. This is because Bi2Te3 (or more precisely its alloys with Sb2Te3 for p‐type and …

Since the early 1980s, most electronics have relied on the use of complementary metal–
oxide–semiconductor (CMOS) transistors. However, the principles of CMOS operation …

Chiral materials are an ideal playground for exploring the relation between symmetry,
relativistic effects and electronic transport. For instance, chiral organic molecules have been …

Reduced dimensionality and interlayer coupling in van der Waals materials gives rise to
fundamentally different electronic, optical and many-body quantum,–properties in …

Spin-orbit coupling in inversion-asymmetric magnetic crystals and structures has emerged
as a powerful tool to generate complex magnetic textures, interconvert charge and spin …

Within a decade, the field of magnetic skyrmionics has developed from a niche prediction to
a huge and active research field. Not only do magnetic skyrmions—magnetic whirls with a …

The notion of non-trivial topological winding in condensed matter systems represents a
