- Magnetic Hofstadter cascade in a twisted semiconductor homobilayerNature Physics, Published online: 21 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03083-5 Exploring the spin-resolved Hofstadter spectrum in the presence of interactions is challenging. Now, a series of magnetic phase transitions are observed as individual Hofstadter bands are filled, allowing the exchange interactions to be mapped out.
- Cavity electrodynamics of van der Waals heterostructuresNature Physics, Published online: 20 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03064-8 Integrating an electronic device with a cavity can cause the electrons to couple to photons strongly enough to form hybrid modes. Now, the cavity effects induced by intrinsic graphite gates are shown to modify the low-energy properties of graphene.
- Demonstration of dynamic surface codesNature Physics, Published online: 17 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03070-w Typical quantum error correcting codes assign fixed roles to the underlying physical qubits. Now the performance benefits of alternative, dynamic error correction schemes have been demonstrated on a superconducting quantum processor.
- Electrons herald non-classical lightNature Physics, Published online: 16 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03033-1 When free electrons emit light, an entangled electron–photon state is created. Here measurements of the correlated multiparticle system have been used to produce non-classical photonic states.
- Vibrational responses of polar skyrmionsNature Physics, Published online: 15 October 2025; doi:10.1038/s41567-025-03068-4 Controlling polar skyrmions — topological textures of electric dipoles — is crucial for modern optoelectronic applications. Terahertz excitation is shown to govern ultrafast manipulation of polar skyrmions featuring signature vibrational modes.
