Here we report a strategic approach to determine the effect of lattice dynamics on spin coherence lifetimes using oxygen deficient double perovskites as host materials. In addition to obtaining millisecond T1 spin-lattice lifetimes at T ~ 10 K, measurable quantum superpositions were observed up to room temperature. We determine that T2 enhancement in Sr2CaWO6-δ over previously studied Ba2CaWO6-δ is caused by a dynamically-driven increase in effective site symmetry around the dominant paramagnetic site, assigned as W5+ via electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Further, a combination of experimental and computational techniques enabled quantification of the relative strength of spin-phonon coupling of each phonon mode. This analysis demonstrates the effect of thermodynamics and site symmetry on the spin lifetimes of W5+ paramagnetic defects, an important step in the process of reducing decoherence to produce longer-lived qubits.","PeriodicalId":19283,"journal":{"name":"npj Quantum Materials","volume":"232 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144311797","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Elucidating the dynamics of the elementary excitations within the fundamental electronic degrees of freedom is of paramount importance. Here we performed resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) to elaborate the spin-orbital excitations of the vdW antiferromagnet FePS3 and their role for magnetism. We observed the spectral enhancement of spin-orbital multiplet excitations at about ~100 and ~220 meV, as well as the quasielastic response, when entering the antiferromagnetic phase with an order-parameter-like evolution in temperature. By comparing with model calculations, we discovered the trigonal lattice distortion, spin-orbit interaction and metal-ligand charge-transfer to be essential for these emergent excitations. We further reveal their spectral robustness down to the few atomic-layer limit by mechanical exfoliation, in accordance with the persistent antiferromagnetism reported previously. Our study highlights the crucial role of lattice and orbital anisotropy for stabilizing the quasi-two-dimensional magnetism and tailoring vdW magnets.","PeriodicalId":19283,"journal":{"name":"npj Quantum Materials","volume":"605 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144305460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This is because extreme conditions trigger the development of new states of matter and functionality. In this work, we bring together synchrotron-based infrared absorption, Raman scattering, and diamond anvil cell techniques with first-principles calculations of the lattice dynamics and energy landscape to reveal the series of structural phase transitions in CrSBr. By tracking how the phonons change under pressure, we uncover a remarkable chain of complex symmetry modifications, interlayer interactions, and chemical reactions. A group-subgroup analysis suggests that CrSBr undergoes an orthorhombic Pmmn → monoclinic P2/m transition at 7.6 GPa, and based upon a comparison with model oxychlorides like FeOCl and CrOCl, we propose that changes in the pendant halide groups drive the system to a P21/m-like space group above 15.3 GPa. Compression above 20.2 GPa is irreversible, resulting in the formation of an entirely new compound that is metastable for months. This work opens the door to the use of pressure and possibly strain to control the properties of CrSBr.","PeriodicalId":19283,"journal":{"name":"npj Quantum Materials","volume":"173 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144260215","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we report a direct observation of a smectic phase in a weakly correlated nonsymmorphic square-net semimetal GdSbxTe2-x. Incommensurate smectic charge modulation and intense local unidirectional nanostructure, which coexist with Dirac fermions across Fermi level, are visualized by using spectroscopic imaging—scanning tunneling microscopy. As materials with highly mobile carriers are mostly weakly correlated, the discovery of such an ELC phase are anomalous and raise questions on the origin of their emergence. Specifically, we demonstrate how chemical substitution generates these symmetry breaking phases before the system undergoes a charge density wave (CDW)—orthorhombic structural transition. Our results highlight the importance of impurities in realizing ELC phases and present a new material platform for exploring the interplay among quenched disorder, Dirac fermions and electron correlation.","PeriodicalId":19283,"journal":{"name":"npj Quantum Materials","volume":"170 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.7,"publicationDate":"2025-06-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144237404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
