Demonstrating the braiding of Majorana modes remains an unsolved problem in condensed matter physics because of platform-specific challenges. In this paper, we propose a two-dimensional (2D) kagome lattice with s-wave and d-wave superconductors as an effective platform for manipulating and braiding Majorana modes. Our findings reveal that the topological phase is highly sensitive to the application of uniaxial strain or variations in chemical potential, enabling real-space manipulation of Majorana modes. In proximity to an s-wave superconductor, we design the kagome lattice with only C/B-type sublattice terminations, and exchange the position of Majorana corner modes (MCMs) along the boundary. We further develop a porous kagome lattice to host and braid multiple MCMs, as experimentally measurable braiding requires at least four Majorana modes. When substituting the s-wave superconductor with a d-wave superconductor, we observe the emergence of Majorana Kramers pairs (MKPs). Importantly, the positions of the Dirac mass domain walls that bind the MKPs are sensitively dependent on the local boundary topology. By building a kagome lattice featuring solely C/B-type sublattice terminations and manipulating the local boundary topology, we can therefore exchange the positions of MKPs through applying inhomogeneous chemical potential and/or nonuniform uniaxial strain.
It is usually supposed that only low-symmetry two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit anisotropy, here we show that high-symmetry 2D semiconductors can show significant anisotropy in momentum space due to the band stru...

Heading errors of atomic magnetometers refer to the dependence of measurement results on the sensor orientation with respect to the external magnetic field. There are three main sources of such errors: the light shift effect, the linear nuclear-spin Zeeman effect, and the nonlinear Zeeman effect. In this work, we suppress the first two effects by using the Bell-Bloom optical pumping method and probe the atomic signals while the pumping beam is off, and focus on the heading error induced by nonlinear Zeeman effect while the sensor operates in the geomagnetic field range. We demonstrate several schemes to suppress this remaining heading error within 1 nT using a single magnetometer or a comagnetometer. In the magnetometer system, two schemes are developed to average out the horizontal atomic polarization in space or in time, respectively. In the comagnetometer system, we combine the simultaneously measured Larmor frequencies of two different alkali atoms to either suppress the heading error or extract the orientation of the pumping beam relative to the bias field.

As branch-point singularities of non-Hermitian matrices, the exceptional points (EPs) exhibit unique spectral topology and criticality, with intriguing dynamic consequences in non-Hermitian settings. In quantum open systems, EPs also emerge in the Liouvillian spectrum, but their dynamic impact often pertains to the transient dynamics and is challenging to demonstrate. Here, using the flexible control afforded by single-photon interferometry, we study the chiral state transfer when the Liouvillian EP is parametrically encircled. Reconstructing the density-matrix evolution by experimentally simulating the quantum Langevin equation, we show that the chirality of the dynamics is only present within an intermediate encircling timescale and dictated by the landscape of the Liouvillian spectrum near the EP. However, the chirality disappears at long times as the system always relaxes to the steady state. We then demonstrate the power-law decay of the chirality in regard to the encircling time with a parameter-dependent exponent. Our experiment confirms the transient nature of chiral state transfer near a Liouvillian EP in quantum open systems, while our scheme paves the way for simulating general open-system dynamics using single photons.

Magnetic skyrmions are considered to be potential information carriers in racetrack memory. However, the skyrmion Hall effect limits the maximum speed of skyrmions along the current direction, which hampers their further application. Here, we investigate the fundamental properties of an elongated skyrmion induced by an anisotropic Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Spin-orbit torque-driven dynamics of the elongated skyrmion under various conditions, including anisotropic DMI, Gilbert damping, and current, are also performed by a combination of micromagnetic simulations and solutions of the Thiele equation. It is found that elongated skyrmions can realize a zero skyrmion Hall angle, and the gradient of Gilbert damping is an effective method to significantly control the skyrmion Hall angle. It should be noted that the rotational symmetry breaking of the elongated skyrmions results in lower thermal stability than the circular skyrmions. Our results offer the possibility of zero skyrmion Hall angle motion, which may help guide the potential application of elongated skyrmions in racetrack memory.
