We present a theoretical study of the anomalous Nernst and Hall conductance in the Kagome metal potassium tri vanadium pentantimonide, based on a system Hamiltonian incorporating nearest neighbour and complex next nearest neighbour hopping,…
Chiral molecules are known to preferentially select electrons with a particular spin state, an effect termed chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS). In this work, the transient CISS dynamics in a chiral molecule are investigated through…
Principal component analysis (PCA) is a powerful method that can identify patterns in large, complex data sets by constructing low-dimensional order parameters from higher-dimensional feature vectors. There are increasing efforts to use…
Rydberg excitons in the semiconductor Cu$_2$O have been observed in absorption experiments up to a principal quantum number of n = 28 at millikelvin temperatures [1]. Here, we extend the experimental parameter space by variing both…
We demonstrate the high stability of simulated graphene hyperbolic pseudospheres under large externally imposed deformations and high temperature annealing. Hyperbolic pseudospheres are produced in a two-step Molecular Dynamics simulation…
The use of spin waves in magnetic thin films at cryogenic temperatures has long been hindered by the lack of a suitable material platform. Yttrium iron garnet (YIG) is the leading candidate, yet it is typically grown on gadolinium gallium…
Unconventional magnets with momentum-dependent spin-splitting but zero net magnetization form a recently identified class of collinear magnets that are challenging to probe via conventional means. We show that these systems can be…
Graphene provides an excellent platform for investigating electron quantum interference due to its outstanding coherent properties. In the quantum Hall regime, Mach--Zehnder (MZ) electronic interferometers are realized using p--n junctions…
In bilayer graphene the exact energy levels of quantum dots can be derived from the four-component continuum Hamiltonian. Here, we study the quantum dot energy levels with approximate equations and compare them with the exact levels. The…
With recent advances in strain-engineering technology of graphene and 2D materials, graphene quantum dots (QDs) defined by the strain-induced pseudo-magnetic fields (PMFs) have been of interest, with the feasibility of tunable graphene…
Layered 2D van der Waals materials, such as transition metal dichalcogenides, are promising for nanoscale spintronic and optoelectronic applications. Harnessing their full potential requires understanding both intrinsic transport and the…
Magnetic textures such as skyrmions in thin films grown on substrates possess significant technological potential. Inhomogeneous magnetic structures can be described as homogeneous ferromagnetic order in the presence of anisotropic…
We generalize Landauer's theory of ballistic transport in a one-dimensional (1D) conductor to situations where charge carrier injection and extraction are not any more confined to electrodes at either end of the channel, but may occur along…
In this work, we have validated the application of Hertzian contact mechanics models and corrections for the analysis of force vs indentation curves, acquired using spherical indenters on linearly elastic samples, by means of finite…
Topology is key in describing unconventional quantum phases of matter and devising robust quantum technology. Exactly how topology mixes with quantum mechanics remains largely unclear, as testified by the lack of a unifying microscopic…
The interaction between hydrogen atoms and carbon nanoparticles is a fundamental process governing the properties of carbonaceous materials in environments ranging from combustion systems to the interstellar medium. This study investigates…
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures allow the engineering of electronic and magnetic properties by the stacking different two-dimensional vdW materials. For example, orbital hybridisation and charge transfer at a vdW interface may result…
Here we show the first experimental implementation of the fully general Kitaev chain with complex-valued order parameter $\Delta$ and site-varying synthetic chemical potential $\mu$, using a passive multilayer acoustic resonator design and…
The bound electron-hole pairs known as excitons govern the optical properties of insulating solids. While their behavior in equilibrium is well-understood theoretically, the nonequilibrium regime at high excitation densities-where phenomena…
We use time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (TR-ARPES) combined with density functional theory to investigate ultrafast carrier dynamics in low-symmetry layered semiconducting PdSe$_2$. The indirect bandgap is determined to…
