Chern insulator is a building block of many topological quantum matters, ranging from quantum spin Hall insulators to fractional Chern insulators. Here, we discuss a new type of insulator, which consists of two half filled ordinary Chern…
We identify a new class of topologically driven phase transitions when calculating the Hall conductance of two-band Chern insulators in the long-time limit after a global quench of the Hamiltonian. The Hall conductance is expressed as the…
Twisted bilayers of nodal superconductors have been recently demonstrated to be a potential platform to realize two-dimensional topological superconductivity. Here we study the topological properties of twisted finite-thickness flakes of…
We consider twisted bilayer graphene on a transition metal dichalcogenide substrate, where proximity-induced spin-orbit coupling significantly alters the eight flat bands which occur near the magic angle. The resulting band structure…
We present a pedagogical review of the physics of fractional Chern insulators with a particular focus on the connection to the fractional quantum Hall effect. While the latter conventionally arises in semiconductor heterostructures at low…
The Chern number is a crucial topological invariant for distinguishing the phases of Chern insulators. Here we find that for Chern insulators with inversion symmetry, the Chern number alone is insufficient to fully characterize their…
Topology has appeared in different physical contexts. The most prominent application is topologically protected edge transport in condensed matter physics. The Chern number, the topological invariant of gapped Bloch Hamiltonians, is an…
Machine learning and high-throughput screening approaches to superconductor discovery require physically meaningful descriptors that capture essential physics while remaining computationally tractable. The superfluid weight is an ideal…
In the field of topological insulators, the topological properties of quantum states in samples with simple geometries, such as a cylinder or a ribbon, have been classified and understood during the last decade. Here, we extend these…
Topological invariants are fundamental characteristics reflecting global properties of quantum systems, yet their exploration has predominantly been limited to the static (DC) transport and transverse (Hall) channel. In this work, we extend…
Topological quantum phases of matter have been a topic of intense interest in contemporary condensed matter physics. Extensive efforts are devoted to investigate various exotic properties of topological matters including topological…
We propose models of twisted multilayer graphene that exhibit exactly flat Bloch bands with arbitrary Chern numbers and ideal band geometries. The models are constructed by twisting two sheets of Bernal-stacked multiple graphene layers with…
We demonstrate how the non-trivial interplay between spin-orbit coupling and nodeless $s$-wave superconductivity can drive a fully gapped two-band topological insulator into a time-reversal invariant gapless topological superconductor…
Recent experimental study unveiled highly unconventional phenomena in the superconducting twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) with ultra flat bands, which cannot be described by the conventional BCS theory. For example, given the small Fermi…
Here we study the systematic evolution of the topological properties of a Chern insulator in presence of an electronic dispersion that can be tuned smoothly from being Dirac-like till a semi-Dirac one and beyond. The band structure under…
We propose an approach to induce nontrivial bands with non-zero Chern numbers by utilizing strong spin-orbit coupling in transition metal dichalcogenides with dopants. We demonstrate that a doped state near the valence-band edge induces…
In this study, we examine the introduction of the Haldane model into the dice lattice by altering the flow between the next-nearest-neighbour sites. This breaks the lattice's inversion and time-reversal symmetries. We demonstrate the…
Topological invariants, such as the winding number, the Chern number, and the Zak phase, characterize the topological phases of bulk materials. Through the bulk-boundary correspondence, these topological phases have a one-to-one…
Magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene (MA-TBG) exhibits intriguing quantum phase transitions triggered by enhanced electron-electron interactions when its flat-bands are partially filled. However, the phases themselves and their connection…
We have studied the evolution of the topological properties of a band-engineered AB-stacked bilayer honeycomb structure in the presence of a Haldane flux. Without a Haldane flux, band engineering makes the band touching points (the…
