Hole spins in group IV quantum dots are a highly promising way to develop CMOS compatible spin qubits owing to their inherent spin-orbit coupling, which enables fast, coherent, and electrical spin control. However, spin-orbit coupling not…
We theoretically study how to design spin couplings in networks of Majorana Cooper pair boxes (MCBs) connected by multiple normal-metal leads. The inter-box interaction is generated by the conduction-electron-mediated…
Surface acoustic waves (SAWs), with their five orders-of-magnitude slower propagation velocity, allow for considerably shorter wavelengths at the same frequency compared to electromagnetic waves. The short wavelengths allow for device…
Epitaxial bismuthene on SiC(0001) hosts symmetry-protected metallic edge states within a large bulk band gap, establishing it as a promising two-dimensional topological insulator for hightemperature quantum spin Hall (QSH) transport. Here…
The realization of high-fidelity organic-inorganic quantum emulators is frequently hindered by the interfacial imperfections introduced during device fabrication. Here, we demonstrate a robust nanofabrication protocol that restores the…
Plasmon are collective oscillations of mobile electrons with dynamics controlled by their charge stiffness("Drude weight"). Using terahertz spacetime metrology, we probe Plasmon dynamics of mono- and bi-layer graphene. In both systems, the…
We model $p$-state Fock parafermions on a lattice in one dimension (with occupation per orbital of $0,1 , \ldots ,p-1$). For $p$ a composite number, they may be mapped to $q_m$-state parafermions where $q_m$ are the prime factors of $p$.…
Recent experiments observing how femtosecond laser pulse (fsLP) excites magnons in two-dimensional (2D) antiferromagnetic (AF) semiconductors -- such as CrSBr, NiPS$_3$, and MnPS$_3$, or their van der Waals heterostructures -- suggest an…
We present a method for probing the quantum capacitance associated with the Rydberg transition of surface electrons on liquid helium using radio-frequency (RF) reflectometry. Resonant microwave excitation of the Rydberg transition induces a…
By analyzing the spin-group symmetry of magnons, we establish two generalized Onsager's relations in the magnon thermal Hall effect, which reveals the rich and complicated structures of the magnon Berry curvature in the parameter space of…
Motivated by recent experiments (Subero et. al. Nature Comm. $\bf{14}$, 7924 (2023)) we analyze photonic heat transport through a Josephson junction in a dissipative environment. For this purpose we derive general expressions for the heat…
We propose a general principle of constructing non-Hermitian (NH) operators for insulating and gapless topological phases in any dimension ($d$) that over an extended NH parameter regime feature real eigenvalues and zero-energy topological…
A profound understanding of terahertz (THz) spin and charge currents in heterostructures involving ferromagnets (FMs) and two-dimensional (2D) materials promises emerging applications in high-speed sensing and data processing. Yet,…
We fabricate twisted double bilayer graphene devices with zero twist angle and a set of local top and bottom gates aligned perpendicularly to each other. A 1D PN junction can be electrostatically defined when the gate voltages applied to…
Tin-phthalocyanine molecules adsorbed on a NaCl ultrathin film on Au(111) exhibit electrofluorescence excited by a current across a scanning tunneling microscope junction. Exploring the dependence of the molecular monomer photon yield on…
Surface resonance states are electronic states localized near the surface while remaining hybridized with bulk bands. These states can strongly modify the electric-field response of semiconductors. Here, we demonstrate using scanning…
Analogue studies represent an important tool in modern Physics. In particular, analogue gravity had a strong success in the recent years with the demonstrations of Hawking radiation and superradiance of analogue black holes in classical and…
The hybrid skin-topological effect (HSTE) arises from the interplay between the non-Hermitian skin modes and topologically protected edge states. Here, we investigate the HSTE associated with antichiral edge states in a modified Haldane…
Valleytronics exploits non-equivalent energy extrema in the electronic band structure of crystalline solids -- the valley degree of freedom -- to encode, manipulate, and read out information. The advent of 2D materials, first graphene and…
In this study, we numerically evaluate the learning performance of a vortex spin-torque oscillator with a modified free layer, called a modified VSTO (m-VSTO), in which an additional layer (AL) of smaller radius is stacked on the free…
