Starting from a three dimensional Hamiltonian, we study the optical properties of ultra-thin topological insulator slabs for which the coupling between Dirac fermions on opposite surfaces results in two degenerated gapped hyperbolic bands.…
Searching for $p+ip$ superconducting(SC) state has become a fascinating subject in condensed matter physics, as a dream application awaiting in topological quantum computation. In this paper, we report a theoretical discovery of a $p+ip$ SC…
The kagome lattice stands as a rich platform for hosting a wide array of correlated quantum phenomena, ranging from charge density waves and superconductivity to electron nematicity and loop current states. Direct detection of loop currents…
Motivated by recent experiments on the triangular lattice Mott-Hubbard system kappa-(BEDT-TTF)2Cu2(CN)3, we develop a general formalism to investigate quantum spin liquid insulators adjacent to the Mott transition in Hubbard models. This…
Recent optical measurements of deeply underdoped cuprates have revealed that a coherent Drude response persists well below the end of the superconducting dome. In addition, no large increase in optical effective mass has been observed, even…
The antiferromagnetic spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg model on a kagome lattice is one of the most paradigmatic models in the context of spin liquids, yet the precise nature of its ground state is not understood. We use large scale density matrix…
The interest in the physical properties of kagome lattices has risen considerably. In addition to the synthesis of new materials, the possibility of realizing ultracold atoms on an optical kagome lattice (KL) raises interesting issues. For…
Motivated by recent experimental development, we investigate spin-orbit coupled repulsive Fermi atoms in a one-dimensional optical lattice. Using the density-matrix renormalization group method, we calculate momentum distribution function,…
An intriguing aspect of unconventional superconductivity is that it always appears in the vicinity of other competing phases, whose suppression brings the full emergence of superconductivity. In the iron-pnictides, these competing phases…
Synthetic spin-orbit coupling in ultracold atomic gases can be taken to extremes rarely found in solids. We study a two dimensional Hubbard model of bosons in an optical lattice in the presence of spin-orbit coupling strong enough to drive…
In honeycomb Dirac systems with broken inversion symmetry, orbital magnetic moments coupled to the valley degree of freedom arise due to the topology of the band structure, leading to valley-selective optical dichroism. On the other hand,…
Herbertsmithite and Zn-doped barlowite are two compounds for experimental realization of twodimensional gapped kagome spin liquid. Theoretically, it has been proposed that charge doping a quantum spin liquid gives rise to exotic metallic…
Strong Coulomb repulsion is predicted to open a many-body charge gap at the Dirac point of graphene, transforming the semimetal into a Mott insulator. However, this correlated insulating phase has remained inaccessible in pristine graphene,…
We use a slave-rotor approach within a mean-field theory to study the competition of metallic, Mott-insulating, and superconducting phases of spin-3/2 fermions subjected to a periodic optical lattice potential. In addition to the metallic,…
Employing complementary torque magnetometry and electron spin resonance on single crystals of herbertsmithite, the closest realization to date of a quantum kagome antiferromagnet featuring a spin-liquid ground state, we provide novel…
We provide evidence for spin glass related magnetic gaps in the fermionic density of states below the freezing temperature. Model calculations are presented and proposed to be relevant for explaining resistivity measurements which observe a…
In the Hamburg cold atom experiment with orbital states in an optical lattice, $s$- and $p$-orbital atomic states hybridize between neighbouring sites. In this work we show how this alternation of sites hosting $s$- and $p$-orbital states…
A novel gapped metallic state coined orthogonal Dirac semimetal is proposed in the honeycomb lattice in terms of $Z_{2}$ slave-spin representation of Hubbard model. This state corresponds to the disordered phase of slave-spin and has the…
We study spin-1 bosons in an optical lattice under a magnetic field by the Gutzwiller approximation. Our results thus obtained join the discontinuous phase boundary curves obtained by perturbative studies through a first-order transition.…
We have performed large scale variational search for the best RVB ansatz for the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ kagome antiferromagnet with both nearest-neighboring(NN) and next-nearest-neighboring(NNN) exchanges assuming only translational symmetry.…
