This $978,606 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will fund collaborative research by West Virginia University Research Corporation to develop pseudospin control as a new materials design tool for discovering novel magnetic states and superconductivity. Key activities include:

  • Developing a comprehensive theory of non-spin-1/2 pseudospin behavior in materials with non-symmorphic symmetry, which can enable new magnetic states like altermagnets and odd-parity multipole magnets
  • Using density functional calculations to guide the search for high-field superconductors and novel magnets exhibiting these pseudospin-driven properties
  • Growing thin films of candidate materials by molecular beam epitaxy and characterizing their magnetic and superconducting behavior using advanced microscopy and spectroscopy

The award aims to catalyze a paradigm shift in quantum materials discovery by establishing pseudospin control as a guiding principle, and will provide training for the next-generation quantum workforce. No subawards are planned under this grant.
