Abstract

The diverse quantization phenomena in 2D condensed-matter systems, being due to a uniform perpendicular magnetic field and the geometry-created lattice symmetries, are the focuses of this book. They cover the diversified magneto-electronic properties, the various magneto-optical selection rules, the unusual quantum Hall conductivities, and the single- and many-particle magneto-Coulomb excitations. The rich and unique behaviors are clearly revealed in few-layer graphene systems with the distinct stacking configurations, the stacking-modulated structures, and the silicon-doped lattices, bilayer silicene/germanene systems with the bottom-top and bottom-bottom buckling structures, monolayer and bilayer phosphorene systems, and quantum topological insulators. The generalized tight-binding model, the static and dynamic Kubo formulas, and the random-phase approximation, are developed/modified to thoroughly explore the fundamental properties and propose the concise physical pictures. The different high-resolution experimental measurements are discussed in detail, and they are consistent with the theoretical predictions.
