The latter has ignited revival interest in the properties of Kondo insulators. Currently, the feasibility of topological nature in SmB₆ is intensively analyzed by several complementary probes. Here by starting with a minimal-orbital Anderson lattice model, the local electronic structure is explored in a Kondo insulator. It is showed that the two strong topological regimes sandwiching the weak topological regime give rise to a single Dirac cone, which is located near the center or corner of the surface Brillouin zone. It is further found that, when a single impurity is placed on the surface, low-energy resonance states are induced in the weak scattering limit for the strong TKI regimes and the resonance level moves monotonically across the hybridization gap with the strength of impurity scattering potential; while low energy states can only be induced in the unitary scattering limit for the weak TKI regime, where the resonance level moves universally toward the center of the hybridization gap. These impurity-induced low-energy quasiparticles will lead to characteristic signatures in scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy, which has recently found success in probing into exotic properties in heavy fermion systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":100035,"journal":{"name":"Advanced Physics Research","volume":"4 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/apxr.202500003","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144598771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Special Issue Editorial: Quantum Anomalies in Condensed Matter","authors":"Michael T. Pettes,&nbsp;Avadh Saxena","doi":"10.1002/apxr.202500056","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1002/apxr.202500056","url":null,"abstract":"&lt;p&gt;A symmetry that exists in the classical regime but is broken in the quantum realm may create what field theorists refer to as a quantum anomaly. Three of these symmetries in classical field theory that are broken in the quantum regime offer significant potential for enabling new technologies in the condensed matter context: the scale (conformal) anomaly, axial (chiral) anomaly, and parity anomaly. For example, the chiral anomaly in Weyl semimetals manifests as unusual magneto-transport phenomena, such as negative longitudinal magnetoresistance. Similarly, the parity anomaly can induce a half-quantized Hall effect, and the scale anomaly is predicted to generate anomalous thermoelectric currents. Observing these effects in topological materials not only tests quantum field theory in a laboratory setting but also advances our understanding of symmetry breaking in novel quantum phases. This paradigm is gaining ground in both theory and experiments on new topological materials which are allowing the research community to begin to realize their signatures in condensed matter as depicted in the Venn diagram of &lt;b&gt;Figure&lt;/b&gt; 1. Although we emphasize that experimental evidence in solids remains scarce, this interdisciplinary field is opening a new frontier in physics research with promise for a unique set of new potential device applications. Technologies enabled by quantum anomalies include ultra-sensitive micro-bolometric detectors, dark matter detectors, far infrared optical modulators, low-dissipation ballistic transporters, terahertz-based qubits, terahertz polarization state controls, passive magnetic field sensors, stable topological superconductors that host Majorana fermions (i.e., topological quantum computing), and qubits topologically protected against decoherence among possibly others. This has been expressed in a simple language accessible to materials scientists and physicists alike in a perspective article (202400189, https://doi.org/10.1002/apxr.202400189), which describes how each anomaly's measurable non-conserved current offers a window into quantum symmetry breaking in condensed matter, particularly topological quantum materials.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;This special issue brings together an additional five technical articles that illustrate these concepts in various condensed matter systems. First, the theoretical basis is described in two articles. Maxim Chernodub et al. (202300058, https://doi.org/10.1002/apxr.202300058) report on how the scale (conformal) anomaly can produce electric currents at the boundaries of materials exposed to static magnetic fields, using scalar quantum electrodynamics simulations. The authors reveal significant differences between quantum anomaly-driven currents and classical Meissner currents, suggesting measurable effects in Dirac semimetals, and providing insights into anomaly-induced phenomena with potential applications in quantum electronics and anomaly-based sensors.

The fundamental mechanisms of tunneling processes in van der Waals magnetic materials are delved into, with a specific emphasis on CrBr₃. Layer-resolved quasi-resonant tunneling (QRT) mediated by ladder-shaped barriers is revealed. QRT occurs because the outermost CrBr3 conduction band aligns with the Fermi level of the tunneling electrode under the bias voltage tilting, resulting in an increased tunneling probability and enhanced current. Two competing mechanisms driven by the magnetic field—the suppression of spin fluctuations leading to negative tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) and the spin-flip-induced elevation of the conduction band energy causing positive TMR—are identified to explain the diverse behaviors of tunneling magnetoresistance under different bias voltages and temperatures.
