On the basis of a Berry-phase analysis, we study the ground state of the $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg chain for $S=2,3,4$. We find that changes of the Berry phase occur $S$ times for spin-$S$ systems, indicating the sequential phase transitions.…

Kondo conduction has been observed in a quantum dot with an even number of electrons at the Triplet-Singlet degeneracy point produced by applying a small magnetic field $B$ orthogonal to the dot plane. At a much larger field $ B \sim B_*$,…

Berry phase plays an important role in determining many physical properties of quantum systems. However, a Berry phase altering energy spectrum of a quantum system is comparatively rare. Here, we report an unusual tunable valley polarized…
Higher-order topological insulators are a new class of topological phases of matter, originally conceived for electrons in solids. It has been suggested that $\mathbb{Z}_N$ Berry phase (Berry phase quantized into $2\pi/N$) is a useful tool…
