Oxide heterostructures are of great interest both for fundamental and applicative reasons. In particular the two-dimensional electron gas at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ or LaTiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ interfaces displays many different physical…
Intriguingly conducting perovskite interfaces between ordinary band insulators are widely explored, whereas similar interfaces with Mott insulators are still not quite understood. Here we address the (001), (110), and (111) interfaces…
Complex oxide heterointerfaces and van der Waals heterostructures present two versatile but intrinsically different platforms for exploring emergent quantum phenomena and designing new functionalities. The rich opportunity offered by the…
An intrinsic feature of nearly all internal interfaces in crystalline systems (homo- and hetero-phase) is the presence of disconnections (topological line defects constrained to the interface that have both step and dislocation character).…
In van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures formed by stacking two monolayer semiconductors, lattice mismatch or rotational misalignment introduces an in-plane moir\'e superlattice. While it is widely recognized that a moir\'e superlattice can…
We calculate the non-equilibrium electronic transport properties of a one-dimensional interacting chain at half filling, coupled to non-interacting leads. The interacting chain is initially in a Mott insulator state that is driven out of…
Exotic collective phenomena emerge when bosons strongly interact within a lattice. However, creating a robust and tunable solid-state platform to explore such phenomena has been elusive. Dual moir\'e systems$-$compromising two…
Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging method in which an unknown physical body is probed with electric currents applied on the boundary, and the internal conductivity distribution is recovered from the measured…
Topological insulators have become one of the most active research areas in condensed matter physics. This article reviews progress on the topic of electronic correlations effects in the two-dimensional case, with a focus on systems with…
The conducting quasi-two dimensional electron system (q2DES) formed at the interface between LaAlO3 and SrTiO3 band insulators is confronting the condensed matter physics community with new paradigms. While the mechanism for the formation…
Three-terminal electrochemical ionic synapses (EIoS) have recently attracted interest for in-memory computing applications. These devices utilize electrochemical ion intercalation to modulate the ion concentration in the channel material.…
In complex materials observed electronic phases and transitions between them often involves coupling between many degrees of freedom whose entanglement convolutes understanding of the instigating mechanism. Metal-insulator transitions are…
The degree of electronic coupling between individual layers in few-layer van der Waals heterostructures offers a route to engineer their magnetic, electronic, and optical functionalities. Using state-of-the-art first-principles…
We investigate the ground state properties of a non-locally coupled bosonic system in a bilayer optical superlattice by considering bosons in one layer to be of softcore in nature and separately allowing two and three body hardcore…
We propose to increase the superconducting transition temperature Tc of strongly correlated materials by designing heterostructures which exhibit a high pairing energy as a result of magnetic fluctuations. More precisely, applying an…
I analyze electron transport through a Y-junction formed by helical edge states of a two-dimensional topological insulator (2DTI), focusing on the strongly interacting regime. An experimentally motivated device geometry and a…
Two-dimensional materials can be strongly influenced by their surroundings. A dielectric environment screens and reduces the Coulomb interaction between electrons in the two-dimensional material. Since in Mott materials the Coulomb…
Nanoscale polar structures are significant for understanding polarization processes in low-dimensional systems and hold potential for developing high-performance electronics. Here, we demonstrate a polar vortex superstructure arising from…
The heterostructure consisting of the Mott insulator LaVO$_3$ and the band insulator SrTiO$_3$ is considered a promising candidate for future photovoltaic applications. Not only does the (direct) excitation gap of LaVO$_3$ match well the…
The real part of optical conductivity $\text{Re}\sigma(\omega)$ of the Mott insulators has a large amount of information on how spin and charge degrees of freedom interact with each other. By using the time-dependent density-matrix…
