Here, an in-depth investigation of a topological nodal line semimetal PbTaSe<sub>2</sub> via temperature, polarization dependent Raman spectroscopy, and temperature dependent single crystal X-ray diffraction (SC-XRD) measurements is reported. The analysis shows signature of electron-phonon coupling as reflected in the Fano asymmetry in line shape of M1-M4 modes and anomalous temperature variation of line-width of P3-P4 modes. Further polarization dependent phonon symmetry changes at different temperature (6K and 300K), discontinuities in bulk phonon dynamics for P2-P5 modes, and disappearance of phonon modes, i.e., M1-M5, on decreasing temperature indicates toward a thermally induced structural phase transition which is also supported by the SC-XRD results. Hence based on the findings, it is proposed that M1-M4 modes are surface phonon modes, the material undergoes a thermally induced structural phase transition from α to β phase at T<sub>α→β</sub> ≈ 150 K or is in close proximity to the β phase and another transition below T<sub>CDW+β</sub> ≈ 100K which is possibly due to the interplay of remanent completely commensurate charge density wave (CCDW) of 1H-TaSe<sub>2</sub> and β phase.</p>","PeriodicalId":7896,"journal":{"name":"Annalen der Physik","volume":"537 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143389439","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

Bipartite entanglement, tripartite entanglement, and steering can be achieved under the four-wave mixing process. It is shown that the degree of entanglement and the direction of one-way steering can be manipulated not only by designing the dissipation ratio between the two cavity modes but also by regulating the coherent coupling strength ratio between the two cavity modes and the magnon mode. It is found that the direction of steering is associated with the populations of the two cavity modes, meaning that the mode with a greater population always dominates the steering direction. Especially, the transfer between cavity–magnon entanglement and cavity–cavity entanglement can be realized by adjusting the coupling strengths. The findings provide a practical method for coherently manipulating entanglement and one-way steering in cavity–magnon system.</p>","PeriodicalId":7896,"journal":{"name":"Annalen der Physik","volume":"537 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2024-11-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143389125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}
