High-Throughput Computational Discovery and Experimental Realization of Magnetic Materials that Host Topological MagnonicStates
High-throughput screening of all 1,649 known magnetic materials identified 387 (~23%) as candidates guaranteed to host topological magnons under applied fields or strain — expanding the known candidate pool by >30×.
MnTe₂ is experimentally confirmed as a tunable Weyl magnon material, with the topological character of its magnon bands directly detected via neutron scattering and Raman spectroscopy.
Together, these results establish predictive and experimental tools for topological magnon discovery, directly advancing the IRG's goals in topological quantum materials.
