Interesting phases of quantum matter often arise when the constituent particles -- electrons in solids -- interact strongly. Such strongly interacting systems are however quite rare and occur only in extreme environments of low spatial…
Interband pairing in multiband superconductors is often neglected because of its higher energetic cost compared with intraband pairing. We show that, in multiband systems, a Zeeman magnetic field can stabilize interband pairing through the…
Sharp localization transitions of chiral edge states in disordered quantum wires, subject to strong magnetic field, are shown to be driven by crossovers from two- to one-dimensional localization of bulk states. As a result, the two-terminal…
