Temperature-driven transition between momentum-resolved and disordered averaged Coulomb drag in 1D systems

Advancing the understanding of electron-electron interactions in one-dimensional systems remains one of the central challenges in low-dimensional physics, especially for Coulomb-coupled Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids. Notably, the difficulty of reliably extracting one-dimensional system parameters, combined with the presence of disorder, has hindered the interpretation of 1D Coulomb drag experiments. Here, we present a self-consistent experimental determination of the relative Luttinger liquid interaction parameters through 1D Coulomb drag measurements, and achieve quantitative agreement with theoretical predictions. Utilizing vertically coupled GaAs-AlGaAs quantum wires, we fully characterize the one-dimensional parameters through magnetic depopulation. Coulomb drag exhibits a systematic evolution with magnetic field, reflecting the successive depopulation of 1D subbands and the suppression of disorder effects. Two distinct temperature regimes are identified, marking the boundary between momentum-resolved and disordered-averaged Coulomb drag. The observed scaling, peak broadening, and nonlinear current-voltage characteristics establish a unified and quantitative framework for probing electron-electron interactions in 1D systems.

Sub-10 mK "In-cell" Magnetic Refrigeration for Cryogen-free Cryostats

A design and implementation of "in-cell" magnetic refrigeration to achieve sub-10 mK temperatures T in cryogen-free dilution refrigerators is presented. The ultra low temperatures below 5 mK are attained in finite magnetic fields B up to 1 T. The holding time below 5 mK varies between about 3 to 30 hours, depending on the final magnetic field after demagnetization process. The developed technique can be used to study low dimensional devices at ultra low electron temperatures in the High B/T regime.

Tunable reciprocal and nonreciprocal contributions to 1D Coulomb Drag

Coulomb drag is a powerful tool to study interactions in coupled low-dimensional systems. Historically, Coulomb drag has been attributed to a frictional force arising from momentum transfer whose direction is dictated by the current flow. In the absence of electron-electron correlations, treating the Coulomb drag circuit as a rectifier of noise fluctuations yields similar conclusions about the reciprocal nature of Coulomb drag. In contrast, recent findings in one-dimensional systems have identified a nonreciprocal contribution to Coulomb drag that is independent of the current flow direction. In this work, we present Coulomb drag measurements between vertically coupled GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wires separated vertically by a hard barrier only 15 nm wide, where both reciprocal and nonreciprocal contributions to the drag signal are observed simultaneously, and whose relative magnitudes are temperature and gate tunable. Our study opens up the possibility of studying the physical mechanisms behind the onset of both Coulomb drag contributions simultaneously in a single device, ultimately leading to a better understanding of Luttinger liquids in multi-channel wires and paving the way for the creation of energy harvesting devices.

Magnetic Field-Enhanced Graphene Superconductivity with Record Pauli-Limit Violation

Spin-polarized superconductors offer a rare platform for studying electronic correlations, but few candidate systems have been experimentally confirmed to date. Here, we report the observation of a spin-polarized superconducting state, denoted SC5, in WSe2-proximitized rhombohedral trilayer graphene. At in-plane magnetic field B|| = 0 T, SC5 has a critical temperature of 68 mK and an out-of-plane critical magnetic field of only 12 mT. Surprisingly, these values are significantly enhanced as B|| increases, and the superconductivity persists to B|| = 8.8 T. This value corresponds to a record-high Pauli-limit violation ratio of at least 80 among all superconductors, while the true critical field is beyond the limit of our instrument. We conclude that SC5 experiences a canting crossover from Ising-type to spin-polarized superconductor with increased B||.

Family of Unconventional Superconductivities in Crystalline Graphene

Unconventional superconductors exhibit multiple broken symmetries and exceed the range of the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory. For instance, time-reversal symmetry can be broken in addition to the gauge symmetry, resulting in superconductors that can be enhanced or induced by a magnetic field. However, such unconventional superconductivities are more vulnerable to impurities than their BCS counterparts, requiring highly ordered and clean material systems to observe them. Crystalline rhombohedral multilayer graphene is a promising platform to explore unconventional superconductivity due to its superior material quality and gate-tunable strong correlation effects. Here we report transport measurements of rhombohedral tetralayer and pentalayer graphene, where a spectrum of superconductivities in a clean limit are observed. Three of them (SC2-4) show highly unusual enhancements by magnetic fields: 1. SC2 is strengthened by an in-plane field; 2. SC3 is boosted by a small out-of-plane field; 3. SC4 is induced by an in-plane field. All these superconductors are robust against an in-plane field up to 8.5 Tesla, exceeding the Pauli limit of conventional superconductors by tens of times and suggesting their unconventional nature. Moreover, we observed that proximitized spin-orbit coupling generates a plethora of new superconductors in the phase diagram, while maintaining the high quality of bare rhombohedral graphene. Our work establishes a family of new superconductors in rhombohedral multilayer graphene, which also provides an ideal platform to engineer non-Abelian quasiparticles by proximitizing with quantum anomalous Hall states existing in the same material system.

Quasi-1D Coulomb drag in the nonlinear regime

One-dimensional Coulomb drag has been an essential tool to probe the physics of interacting Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids. To date, most experimental work has focused on the linear regime while the predictions for Luttinger liquids beyond the linear response theory remain largely untested. In this letter, we report measurements of momentum transfer induced Coulomb drag between vertically-coupled quasi-one-dimensional quantum wires in the nonlinear regime. Measurements were performed at ultra-low temperatures between wires only 15 nm apart. Our results reveal a nonlinear dependence of the drag voltage as a function of the drive current superimposed with an oscillatory contribution, in agreement with theoretical predictions for Coulomb drag between Tomonaga-Luttinger liquids. Additionally, the observed current-voltage ($I$-$V$) characteristics exhibit a nonmonotonic temperature dependence, further corroborating the presence of non-Fermi-liquid behavior in our system. These findings are observed both in the single and in the multiple subband regimes and in the presence of disorder, extending the onset of this behavior beyond the clean single channel Tomonaga-Luttinger regime where the predictions were originally formulated.

Quasi-1D Coulomb drag between spin-polarized quantum wires

One-dimensional (1D) quantum wires provide a versatile platform for studying strong electron-electron interactions and collective excitations under confinement. Coulomb drag between 1D systems offers a powerful probe of Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) physics, with theoretical predictions suggesting distinct power-law in temperature dependencies between the spin-full and the spin-polarized regimes. However, experimental verification has thus far remained limited. Here, we report measurements of reciprocal and nonreciprocal Coulomb drag between vertically coupled quasi-1D quantum wires in the spin-polarized regime. Clear signatures of spin splitting are observed in both the wires conductance and the drag signal. We observed a connection between electron-hole asymmetry and negative drag, and demonstrated different power-law behaviors in spin-full and spin-polarized regimes, yielding consistent TLL interaction parameters. These results validate the theoretical predictions for backscattering induced drag in the reciprocal regime and extend them to the nonreciprocal and the multiple subband regimes. Furthermore, the nonmonotonic density dependence of the reciprocal interaction parameter correlates with the subband occupation of the drag wire, revealing the complexity of the scattering mechanisms in multichannel systems.

Developing compact tuning fork thermometers for sub-mK temperatures and high magnetic fields

There is a growing demand for experiments on calorimetric and thermal transport measurements at ultra-low temperatures below 1 mK and high magnetic fields up to 16 T. Particularly, milligram-sized solid samples are of great interest. We present the development of scalable thermometers based on quartz tuning fork resonators immersed in liquid 3He and adapt hydrodynamic models to provide an improved description of temperature dependence in the high viscosity regime between 1 and 10 mK. We demonstrate successful thermometer operation and discuss the feasibility of fast and compact thermal probes suitable for small samples.

Development of a sub-mK Continuous Nuclear Demagnetization Refrigerator

We present the development of a two-stage PrNi$_5$ continuous demagnetization refrigerator at the Institut Néel/CNRS and numerical simulations of its performance. The thermal model used in the simulations is discussed in detail including the likely sources of heating. We demonstrate the effects of the critical thermal links including superconducting heat switches as well as the heat conductivity of the PrNi$_5$, accounting for the dependence of cooling power on the PrNi$_5$ rod diameter. Our simulations show that if extreme care is taken to minimize the thermal resistance between the nuclear stages, a sample temperature of 1~mK can be maintained under a 20~nW heat load.

Non-linear Frequency Transduction of Nano-mechanical Brownian Motion

We report on experiments addressing the non-linear interaction between a nano-mechanical mode and position fluctuations. The Duffing non-linearity transduces the Brownian motion of the mode, and of other non-linearly coupled ones, into frequency noise. This mechanism, ubiquitous to all weakly-nonlinear resonators thermalized to a bath, results in a phase diffusion process altering the motion: two limit behaviors appear, analogous to motional narrowing and inhomogeneous broadening in NMR. Their crossover is found to depend non-trivially on the ratio of the frequency noise correlation time to its magnitude. Our measurements obtained over an unprecedented range covering the two limits match the theory of Y. Zhang and M. I. Dykman, Phys. Rev. B 92, 165419 (2015), with no free parameters. We finally discuss the fundamental bound on frequency resolution set by this mechanism, which is not marginal for bottom-up nanostructures.

Majorana Fermions: Direct Observation in 3He

In this letter we report the first direct observation of gap-less Majorana QPs which appear as Andreev bound states on the surface of superfluid $^3$He-B. We made the precise measurements of superfluid 3He-B heat capacity at the limit of extremely low temperatures. We have separated the heat capacity of bulk Bogolyubov QPs and the surface Majorana QPs by its different temperature dependence. We have found that at 0.11 mK the Majorana fermions constitute half of the bolometer heat capacity under the conditions of our experiments.
