We study the effect of strain on the physical properties of the nitrogen antisite-vacancy pair in hexagonal boron nitride ($h$-BN), a color center that may be employed as a quantum bit in a two-dimensional material. With group theory and ab-initio analysis we show that strong electron-phonon coupling plays a key role in the optical activation of this color center. We find a giant shift on the zero-phonon-line (ZPL) emission of the nitrogen antisite-vacancy pair defect upon applying strain that is typical of $h$-BN samples. Our results provide a plausible explanation for the experimental observation of quantum emitters with similar optical properties but widely scattered ZPL wavelengths and the experimentally observed dependence of the ZPL on the strain.

We report new measurements of the neutron charge form factor at low momentum transfer using quasielastic electrodisintegration of the deuteron. Longitudinally polarized electrons at an energy of 850 MeV were scattered from an isotopically pure, highl
y polarized deuterium gas target. The scattered electrons and coincident neutrons were measured by the Bates Large Acceptance Spectrometer Toroid (BLAST) detector. The neutron form factor ratio $G^{n}_{E}/G^{n}_{M}$ was extracted from the beam-target vector asymmetry $A_{ed}^{V}$ at four-momentum transfers $Q^{2}=0.14$, 0.20, 0.29 and 0.42 (GeV/c)$^{2}$.
We report on the creation and characterization of the luminescence properties of high-purity diamond substrates upon F ion implantation and subsequent thermal annealing. Their room-temperature photoluminescence emission consists of a weak emission li
ne at 558 nm and of intense bands in the 600 - 750 nm spectral range. Characterization at liquid He temperature reveals the presence of a structured set of lines in the 600 - 670 nm spectral range. We discuss the dependence of the emission properties of F-related optical centers on different experimental parameters such as the operating temperature and the excitation wavelength. The correlation of the emission intensity with F implantation fluence, and the exclusive observation of the afore-mentioned spectral features in F-implanted and annealed samples provides a strong indication that the observed emission features are related to a stable F-containing defective complex in the diamond lattice.
Molecular spin qubits with long spin coherence time as well as non-invasive operation methods on such qubits are in high demand. It was shown that both molecular electronic and nuclear spin levels can be used as qubits. In solid state systems with do
pants, an electric field was shown to effectively change the spacing between the nuclear spin qubit levels when the electron spin density is high at the nucleus of the dopant. Inspired by such solid-state systems, we propose that divalent lanthanide (Ln) complexes with an unusual electronic configuration of Ln$^{2+}$ have a strong interaction between the Ln nuclear spin and the electronic degrees of freedom, which renders electrical tuning of the interaction. As an example, we study electronic structure and hyperfine interaction of the $^{159}$Tb nucleus in a neutral Tb(II)(Cp$^{rm{iPr5}}$)$_2$ single-molecule magnet (SMM) using the complete active space self-consistent field method with spin-orbit interaction included within the restricted active space state interaction. Our calculations show that the low-energy states arise from $4f^8(6s,5d_{z^2})^1$, 4$f^8$(5$d_{x^2-y^2}$)$^1$, and $4f^8(5d_{xy})^1$ configurations. We compute the hyperfine interaction parameters and the electronic-nuclear spectrum within our multiconfigurational approach. We find that the hyperfine interaction is about one order of magnitude greater than that for Tb(III)Pc$_2$ SMMs. This stems from the strong Fermi contact interaction between the Tb nuclear spin and the electron spin density at the nucleus that originates from the occupation of the $(6s,5d)$ orbitals. We also uncover that the response of the Fermi contact term to electric field results in electrical tuning of the electronic-nuclear level separations. This hyperfine Stark effect may be useful for applications of molecular nuclear spins for quantum computing.
We analyze the ultraviolet to infrared evolution and nonperturbative properties of asymptotically free ${rm SU}(N) otimes {rm SU}(N-4) otimes {rm U}(1)$ chiral gauge theories with $N_f$ copies of chiral fermions transforming according to $([2]_N,1)_{
N-4} + ([bar 1]_N,[bar 1]_{N-4})_{-(N-2)} + (1,(2)_{N-4})_N$, where $[k]_N$ and $(k)_N$ denote the antisymmetric and symmetric rank-$k$ tensor representations of SU($N$) and the rightmost subscript is the U(1) charge. We give a detailed discussion for the lowest nondegenerate case, $N=6$. These theories can exhibit both self-breaking of a strongly coupled gauge symmetry and induced dynamical breaking of a weakly coupled gauge interaction symmetry due to fermion condensates produced by a strongly coupled gauge interaction. A connection with the dynamical breaking of ${rm SU}(2)_L otimes {rm U}(1)_Y$ electroweak gauge symmetry by the quark condensates $langle bar q qrangle$ due to color SU(3)$_c$ interactions is discussed. We also remark on direct-product chiral gauge theories with fermions in higher-rank tensor representations.
We studied the dynamic nuclear spin polarization of nitrogen in negatively charged nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond both experimentally and theoretically over a wide range of magnetic fields from 0 to 1100 G covering both the excited-state le
vel anti-crossing and the ground-state level anti-crossing magnetic field regions. Special attention was paid to the less studied ground-state level anti-crossing region. The nuclear spin polarization was inferred from measurements of the optically detected magnetic resonance signal. These measurements show that a very large (up to $96 pm 2%$) nuclear spin polarization of nitrogen can be achieved over a very broad range of magnetic field starting from around 400 G up to magnetic field values substantially exceeding the ground-state level anti-crossing at 1024 G. We measured the influence of angular deviations of the magnetic field from the NV axis on the nuclear spin polarization efficiency and found that, in the vicinity of the ground-state level anti-crossing, the nuclear spin polarization is more sensitive to this angle than in the vicinity of the excited-state level anti-crossing. Indeed, an angle as small as a tenth of a degree of arc can destroy almost completely the spin polarization of a nitrogen nucleus. In addition, we investigated theoretically the influence of strain and optical excitation power on the nuclear spin polarization.
