Berry phase physics is closely related to a number of topological states of matter. Recently discovered topological semimetals are believed to host a nontrivial $\pi$ Berry phase to induce a phase shift of $\pm 1/8$ in the quantum…

The switching polarization of a ferroelectric is a characterization of the current that flows due to changes in polarization when the system is switched between two states. Computation of this change in polarization in crystal systems has…
In the free case, it is possible to define quantum fields which describe particles with integer or half-integer spin larger than one. It is shown that particles with integer spin must have Bose statistic and particles with half-integer-spin…
