Analysis

This paper investigates the fascinating properties of rhombohedral multilayer graphene (RMG), specifically focusing on how in-plane magnetic fields can induce and enhance superconductivity. The discovery of an insulator-superconductor transition driven by a magnetic field, along with the observation of spin-polarized superconductivity and multiple superconducting states, significantly expands our understanding of RMG's phase diagram and provides valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms of superconductivity. The violation of the Pauli limit and the presence of orbital multiferroicity are particularly noteworthy findings.

Analysis

This paper identifies a family of multiferroic materials (wurtzite MnX) that could be used to create electrically controllable spin-based devices. The research highlights the potential of these materials for altermagnetic spintronics, where spin splitting can be controlled by ferroelectric polarization. The discovery of a g-wave altermagnetic state and the ability to reverse spin splitting through polarization switching are significant advancements.
Reference

Cr doping drives a transition to an A-type AFM phase that breaks Kramers spin degeneracy and realizes a g-wave altermagnetic state with large nonrelativistic spin splitting near the Fermi level. Importantly, this spin splitting can be deterministically reversed by polarization switching, enabling electric-field control of altermagnetic electronic structure without reorienting the Neel vector or relying on spin-orbit coupling.
