Wilson Holonomy and Spectral Monodromy in Spin-Orbit Rings: Effective Gauge Connections and Loop Observables

This paper establishes a precise framework for distinguishing between energy-independent Wilson holonomies and energy-dependent spectral monodromies in spin-orbit rings, demonstrating how this separation enables the mapping of spin-orbit Hamiltonians to effective gauge connections to derive exact spectral quantization and transport properties in systems like graphene and Rashba-Dresselhaus rings.

Resonant Raman scattering in bilayer 3R-MoS2_{2}

This study combines multi-wavelength Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescence, and density functional theory to reveal how resonant light-matter interactions and exciton-phonon coupling govern the temperature-dependent Raman response of bilayer 3R-MoS2_2, including unique phenomena like low-temperature intensity quenching and non-equilibrium phonon temperatures.

Signatures of Rashba-Cavity-Induced Berry-curvature redistribution in the Spin-Hall Conductivity of Semiconductor Artificial Graphene

This paper investigates how the interplay between Rashba spin-orbit coupling and far-infrared cavity fields in artificial graphene creates distinct type-I and type-II Dirac points with unique gap-opening behaviors, leading to tunable, anisotropic, and oscillatory signatures in spin-Hall conductivity driven by electron-photon hybridization.

Moire-Engineered Excitonic Landscape and Phonon-Mediated Recombination in Twisted WSe2 Bilayers

This study demonstrates that twisting bilayer WSe2 to create a moiré superlattice, when encapsulated in hBN, enables precise engineering of the excitonic landscape to enhance interlayer exciton emission and phonon-assisted recombination while suppressing defect-bound signals, offering a new pathway for exploring quantum phenomena in transition metal dichalcogenides.
