Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya Gradients Unlock Topological Dimensional Reduction in Magnetic Hopfions

Three-dimensional magnetic solitons retain topological protection only while their spin field remains continuous. Here we show that chemical inhomogeneity can break this protection in a controlled way, converting a hopfion-like toroidal texture into an effectively two-dimensional skyrmion string. Tilt-dependent Lorentz transmission electron microscopy, electron energy-loss spectroscopy, and micromagnetic simulations of pristine, uniformly Y-doped, and nonuniformly Y-doped disordered TiO2 nanoparticles embedded in a FeCrNiMn host reveal two regimes. Uniform Y doping enriches Ti3+/oxygen-vacancy localization centers and stabilizes closed rings with Hopf invariant QH approximately 1. Nonuniform Y doping forms a Ti4+-rich, vacancy-depleted boundary that creates a sharp q=D/(2A) gradient and a weak-moment leakage channel. This coupled mismatch torque and continuity leakage split the ring, leaving a skyrmion-string remnant and a field-sensitive helicity texture.

Direct imaging of quantum interference and Non-Abelian entanglement in Hopfion: an magnetic soliton possess loop-like anyonic properties

This work provides the first experimental elucidation of quantum topological effects in individual hopfions, establishing their potential as building blocks for three-dimensional topological quantum spintronics. The observed Non-Abelian characteristics suggest pathways toward fault-tolerant quantum operations through controlled hopfion braiding in engineered magnetic metamaterials.

Transition from insulator to superconductor and significant enhancement of superconductivity in FeSe films via tuning Fe-vacancy disorders

In contrast to its bulk crystals, the FeSe film or layer exhibits better superconductivity performance, which attract much interest in its fundamental research as well as potential application. In present work, transition from insulator to superconductor and significant enhancement of superconductivity were achieved in the high quality (00l) oriented FeSe films via controlling the thickness as well as the Fe/Se ratio. The highest Tc up to 15.2 K (almost 2 times higher than those of bulk crystals) and Hc2 up to 35.5 T are obtained in our atmosphere-stable FeSe thin film with practical thickness (240 nm), implying their great potential application in the electronic devices at high magnetic fields. More importantly, it was found that the Fe-vacancy disorder in FeSe films is the intrinsic factor determining the evolution of the superconductivity, rather than thickness effect. In our non-superconducting FeSe film with Fe/Se ratio of 1.00:1.09, insulating \b{eta}-Fe1-xSe phase with iron-vacancy disorders is the main phase and more likely to be the parent phase of FeSe superconducting system. Tuning the Fe-vacancy disorders via changing the Fe/Se ratio can dramatically vary the concentration of charge carrier and introduce proper electron doping, which finally leads to the transition from insulator to superconductor and further enhancement in the superconductivity. Intriguingly, our results also indicate that when the Fe/Se ratio of film is beyond a critical value, superconducting FeSe films will become instable, and phase separation occurs with new non-superconducting phase precipitating in the superconducting matrix, causing the degradation in the superconductivity. The results in present work help us to well understand the intrinsic mechanism of superconductivity among Fe-Se superconducting system and provide a new strategy to further pursue higher Tc in these materials.

Mg coating induced superconductivity in the FeSe ultrathin film

The transition from insulator to superconductor was achieved in the non-superconducting FeSe ultrathin film via simple Mg coating technique in present work. It was found that in non-superconducting FeSe ultrathin film without Mg coating, insulating \b{eta}-Fe1-xSe phase with iron-vacancy disorders is the main phase and more likely to be the parent phase of FeSe superconducting system. Proper Mg coating on the surface of FeSe films can lead to Mg entering FeSe crystal lattice to fill up these Fe vacancies rather than replace Fe. Simultaneously, additional electron doping is introduced and the electron carrier concentration in this parent phase can be tuned, which is responsible for the SIT and evolution of superconductivity in this system. However, abnormal decrease of electron concentration was found in FeSe film with excessive Mg coating, which brings about the severe degradation in superconducting performance.
