Linear in the wave-vector terms of an electron Hamiltonian play an important role in topological insulators and spintronic devices. Here we demonstrate how an external electric field controls the magnitude of a linear-in-K term in the exciton Hamiltonian in wide GaAs quantum wells. The dependence of this term on the applied field in a high quality sample was studied by means of the differential reflection spectroscopy. An excellent agreement between the experimental data and the results of calculations using semi-classical non-local dielectric response model confirms the validity of the method and paves the way for the realisation of excitonic Datta-and-Das transistors. In full analogy with the spin-orbit transistor proposed by Datta and Das [Appl. Phys. Lett. {bf 56}, 665 (1990)], the switch between positive and negative interference of exciton polaritons propagating forward and backward in a GaAs film is achieved by application of an electric field with non-zero component in the plane of the quantum well layer.

We experimentally demonstrate a dipolar polariton based electric field sensor. We tune and optimize the sensitivity of the sensor by varying the dipole moment of polaritons. We show polariton interactions play an important role in determining the con ditions for optimal electric field sensing, and achieve a sensitivity of 0.12 V-m$^{-1}$-Hz$^{-0.5}$. Finally we apply the sensor to illustrate that excitation of polaritons modify the electric field in a spatial region much larger than the optical excitation spot.

In recent years, the field of antiferromagnetic spintronics has been substantially advanced. Electric-field control is a promising approach to achieving ultra-low power spintronic devices via suppressing Joule heating. In this article, cutting-edge r esearch, including electric-field modulation of antiferromagnetic spintronic devices using strain, ionic liquids, dielectric materials, and electrochemical ionic migration, are comprehensively reviewed. Various emergent topics such as the Neel spin-orbit torque, chiral spintronics, topological antiferromagnetic spintronics, anisotropic magnetoresistance, memory devices, two-dimensional magnetism, and magneto-ionic modulation with respect to antiferromagnets are examined. In conclusion, we envision the possibility of realizing high-quality room-temperature antiferromagnetic tunnel junctions, antiferromagnetic spin logic devices, and artificial antiferromagnetic neurons. It is expected that this work provides an appropriate and forward-looking perspective that will promote the rapid development of this field.

Owing to their integer spin, exciton-polaritons in microcavities can be used for observation of non-equilibrium Bose-Einstein condensation in solid state. However, spin-related phenomena of such condensates are difficult to explore due to the relativ ely small Zeeman effect of standard semiconductor microcavity systems and the strong tendency to sustain an equal population of two spin components, which precludes the observation of condensates with a well defined spin projection along the axis of the system. The enhancement of the Zeeman splitting can be achieved by introducing magnetic ions to the quantum wells, and consequently forming semimagnetic polaritons. In this system, increasing magnetic field can induce polariton condensation at constant excitation power. Here we evidence the spin polarization of a semimagnetic polaritons condensate exhibiting a circularly polarized emission over 95% even in a moderate magnetic field of about 3 T. Furthermore, we show that unlike nonmagnetic polaritons, an increase on excitation power results in an increase of the semimagnetic polaritons condensate spin polarization. These properties open new possibilities for testing theoretically predicted phenomena of spin polarized condensate.
Topological insulators (TIs) are a striking example of materials in which topological invariants are manifested in robustness against perturbations. Their most prominent feature is the emergence of topological edge states with reduced dimension at th e boundary between areas with distinct topological invariants. The observable physical effect is unidirectional robust transport, unaffected by defects or disorder. TIs were originally observed in the integer quantum Hall effect for fermionic systems of correlated electrons. However, during the past decade the concepts of topological physics have been introduced into numerous fields beyond condensed matter, ranging from microwaves and photonic systems to cold atoms, acoustics and even mechanics. Recently, TIs were proposed in exciton-polariton systems organized as honeycomb lattices, under the influence of a magnetic field. Topological phenomena in polaritons are fundamentally different from all topological effects demonstrated experimentally thus far: exciton-polaritons are part-light part-matter quasiparticles emerging from the strong coupling of quantum well excitons and cavity photons. Here, we demonstrate experimentally the first exciton-polariton TI. This constitutes the first symbiotic light-matter TIs. Our polariton lattice is excited non-resonantly, and the chiral topological polariton edge mode is populated by a polariton condensation mechanism. We image real- and Fourier-space to measure photoluminescence, and demonstrate that the topological edge mode avoids defects, and that the propagation direction of the mode can be reversed by inverting the applied magnetic field. Our exciton-polariton TI paves the way for a variety of new topological phenomena, as they involve light-matter interaction, gain, and perhaps most importantly - exciton-polaritons interact with one another as a nonlinear many-body system.
We report magneto-optical spectroscopy of gated monolayer MoS$_2$ in high magnetic fields up to 28T and obtain new insights on the many-body interaction of neutral and charged excitons with the resident charges of distinct spin and valley texture. Fo r neutral excitons at low electron doping, we observe a nonlinear valley Zeeman shift due to dipolar spin-interactions that depends sensitively on the local carrier concentration. As the Fermi energy increases to dominate over the other relevant energy scales in the system, the magneto-optical response depends on the occupation of the fully spin-polarized Landau levels in both $K/K^{prime}$ valleys. This manifests itself in a many-body state. Our experiments demonstrate that the exciton in monolayer semiconductors is only a single particle boson close to charge neutrality. We find that away from charge neutrality it smoothly transitions into polaronic states with a distinct spin-valley flavour that is defined by the Landau level quantized spin and valley texture.
