 In this study, researchers observed the presence of shiral magnon polarons, chimps, in a layered zigzag antiferromagnet, AFM. These hybridized causal particles were found to have a gap of 0.25 Mv and could survive down to the quadrilayer limit. The researchers also discovered that these chimps were created through a coherent coupling between AFM magnons and shiral phonons with parallel angular momenta. This coupling was due to the underlying phonon and space group symmetries. Furthermore, the researchers found that the chimps exhibited a unique Raman circular polarization, which could potentially lead to the development of angular momentum-based hybrid phononic and magnonic devices.
