Sensing via a mechanical frequency shift is a powerful measurement tool, and, therefore, understanding and mitigating frequency noise affecting mechanical resonators is imperative. Thermomechanical noise fundamentally limits mechanical…
In this work, we investigate the coupling between a strong impurity and the topological boundary of an SSH heterojunction, composed of two SSH chains belonging to different topological classes. We show that impurity boundary coupling gives…
Spin shuttling offers a promising approach for developing scalable silicon-based quantum processors by addressing the connectivity limitations of quantum dots. In this work, we demonstrate high-fidelity bucket-brigade spin shuttling in a…
We analytically and numerically investigate an Aharonov-Bohm interferometer with two superconducting terminals and a strongly correlated quantum dot in one arm. Through a rigorous derivation, we prove that this double-path interferometer is…
We systematically derive the dissipationless quantum kinetic equation for a multi-band free fermionic system with U(1) symmetry. Using the Moyal product formalism, we fully band-diagonalize the dynamics. Expanding to the second order in…
We report Dirac Landau polaritons observed by terahertz (THz) magnetoreflectivity spectroscopy, demonstrating strong coupling between cyclotron transitions of two-dimensional (2D) Dirac fermions in HgTe quantum wells and optical cavity…
YbB$_6$ is a predicted topological insulator, with experimental evidence for conducting surface states of yet-unproven origin. However, its lack of a natural cleavage plane, and resultant surface-dependent polarity, has obscured its study.…
Optical control of magnetization is often symmetry-forbidden because electric fields and magnetization transform differently under inversion and time-reversal. However, through even-order nonlinear response, optical excitation can generate…
The quantum Hall effect (QHE) is theoretically understood as a superfluid condensate of composite bosons (CBs) -- bound states of electrons and magnetic flux quanta. While dissipationless transport is consistent with this picture, other…
Edge transport serves as a powerful probe of remarkable low-energy properties of fractional quantum Hall states, including the anyonic character of their excitations. Here, we develop a theory of fractional quantum Hall edges driven out of…
We investigate the interference of Laughlin quasiparticles (QPs) in the fractional quantum Hall regime that are stochastically injected into a Fabry-P\'erot interferometer. We find that the effective Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phase accumulated…
The topological magnetoelectric effect (TME) in three-dimensional topological insulators (TIs), described by $\Delta P = \frac{e^2}{2h} N_{\rm Ch}^{(2)} \Delta B$, serves as a condensed-matter realization of the four-dimensional quantum…
We present a systematic investigation of superconductivity in a topological superconductor candidate $T_{\rm d}$-MoTe$_2$ in the few-layer limit. By examining multiple mechanically exfoliated samples with different thicknesses, substrates…
We report the absence of orbital Hall magnetoresistance (OMR) in nonmagnet/ferromagnet bilayers, challenging the general assumption that orbital transport mimics spin transport. Despite the observation of giant orbital torques, confirming…
2D materials and their monolayers have attracted widespread interest by virtue of their unique electronic and optical properties. In addition to their remarkable physical characteristics, their atomically thin nature enables their…
We investigate the thermodynamic properties of finite Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chains in thermal equilibrium at fixed temperature and chemical potential. Using the canonical and grand canonical ensembles, we calculate the energy density,…
Increasing demand for computational power has initiated the hunt for energy efficient and stable memory devices. This is the overarching motivation behind the recent rise of \textit{orbitronics}, which looks to harness the orbital angular…
The Rice-Mele (RM) model, as a paradigmatic extension of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chain, plays a pivotal role in understanding topological phases and quantized adiabatic transport in one-dimensional systems. Its realization in…
Atomically confined spins are emerging as active components in quantum optoelectronic devices such as quantum bits and sensors. However, interrogating single spins at atomic length-scales remains a sizeable challenge, limited by diffraction…
The Rashba-split two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the surface and interface of insulating oxides like KTaO$_{3}$ (KTO) shows great promise for all-oxide spintronics. However, efficient spin current injection into the adjacent 2DEG…
