Altermagnets are an emerging elementary class of collinear magnets. Unlike ferromagnets, their distinct crystal symmetries inhibit magnetization while, unlike antiferromagnets, they promote strong spin polarization in the band structure. The corresponding unconventional mechanism time-reversal symmetry breaking without electronic spectra has been regarded as a primary signature altermagnetism but not experimentally visualized to date. We directly observe structure altermagnetic RuO 2 by...

Imaging energy filters in photoelectron microscopes and momentum use spherical fields with deflection angles of 90°, 180° even 2 × 180°. These instruments are optimized for high resolution, exhibit image aberrations when operated transmission mode at medium resolution. Here, a new approach is presented bandpass-filtered imaging real or reciprocal space using an electrostatic dodecapole asymmetric electrode array. In addition to energy-dispersive beam deflection, this multipole allows...

Photoelectron diffraction (PED) is a powerful and essential experimental technique for resolving the structure of surfaces with sub-angstrom resolution. In high energy regime, researchers in angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) observe modulating patterns attributed to X-ray-PED (XPD) effects. This accompanied by other challenges such as low cross-sections, significant photon momentum transfer, non-negligible phonon scattering. Overall, XPD not only an advantageous approach but...

Driving quantum materials out-of-equilibrium makes it possible to generate states of matter inaccessible through standard equilibrium tuning methods. Upon time-periodic coherent driving electrons using electromagnetic fields, the emergence Floquet-Bloch enables creation and control exotic phases. In transition metal dichalcogenides, broken inversion symmetry within each monolayer results in a non-zero Berry curvature at K K$^{\prime}$ valley extrema, giving rise chiroptical selection rules...
