We extend the Berry-phase concept of polarization to insulators having a non-zero value of the Chern invariant. The generalization to such Chern insulators requires special care because of the partial occupation of chiral edge states. We…

Chiral integer quantum Hall (QH) edge modes are immune to backscattering and therefore are non-localized and show a vanishing longitudinal as well as non-local resistance along with quantized 2-terminal and Hall resistance even in the…
We theoretically investigate electrical transport in a quantum Hall system hosting bulk and edge current carrying states. Spatially varying magnetic and electric confinement creates pairs of current carrying lines that drift in the same or…
Typically the disorder that alters the interference of particle waves to produce Anderson localization is potential scattering from randomly placed impurities. Here we show that disorder in the form of random gauge fields that act directly…
In most topological insulators, the valence and conduction band appear in reverse or inverted order compared to an equivalent insulator with isolated atoms. Here, we explore a different route towards topologically nontrivial states that may…
A central property of Chern insulators is the robustness of the topological phase and edge states to impurities in the system. Despite this, Chern number cannot be straightforwardly calculated in the presence of disorder. Recently, work has…
Precise in-situ control of system parameters is indispensable for all quantum hardware applications. The capacitance in a circuit, however, is usually a simple consequence of electrostatics, and thus quite literally cast in stone. We here…
