This paper demonstrates the realization of a superconductor-coupled InSb nanosheet quantum dot that exhibits Kondo physics and a doublet-singlet quantum phase transition, highlighting its potential for studying topological superconductivity.
This paper investigates how the electrostatic moiré superlattice potentials in graphene/twisted-ferroelectric heterostructures create van Hove singularities that drive resonant absorption and a symmetry-protected linear photovoltaic effect via shift photocurrents.
This paper investigates the excess photon-assisted noise in tunneling into Majorana and Andreev bound states, demonstrating that the noise undergoes multiple sign reversals for Majorana states but remains strictly negative for zero-energy Andreev bound states.
This study demonstrates that anti-site defects and thermal exposure significantly impact the magnetic transitions of few-layer , revealing that even low-temperature heating can cause the magnetic properties of odd- and even-layer samples to converge, thereby providing a new method for assessing sample quality and engineering topological quantum phenomena.
This paper theoretically demonstrates that spin-flip scattering between counterflowing, oppositely polarized electron and hole edge channels in graphene-magnetic interfaces enables dissipationless spin transport with over 100% spin polarization over macroscopic distances.
This study uses first-principles calculations to discover and characterize stable, anisotropic, and semiconducting (X = S, Se) and Janus monolayers, demonstrating their potential for tunable optoelectronics and efficient photocatalytic water splitting.
The authors propose and demonstrate a novel approach to realizing photonic Chern insulators by encoding a Haldane-like model in the synthetic frequency dimension of an optical fiber loop, successfully reconstructing the bands' topology and measuring a driven-dissipative analogue of quantized transverse Hall conductivity to enable robust, one-way light propagation for applications in metrology and quantum information processing.
This paper demonstrates that metrics based on local particle density provide a reliable and experimentally accessible method for tracking adiabaticity in complex, non-equilibrium many-body systems like x-ray photoemission in metals, outperforming traditional criteria and other distance measures while offering new analytical insights.
This paper investigates how localized Gaussian strain on a two-dimensional curved surface influences massless Dirac fermions by generating an attractive geometric potential and position-dependent Fermi velocity, which leads to bound states and localized Landau levels under an external magnetic field, thereby elucidating strain-induced electronic effects in materials like graphene.
This paper benchmarks a flat-band projection method for magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene against fully atomistic models, demonstrating their close agreement in energy and band structure while introducing novel order parameters to visualize real-space wave functions and quantify symmetry breaking in correlated phases.
