Topological phases of fermions in two-dimensions are often characterized by chiral edge states. By definition these propagate in the opposite directions at the two parallel edges when the sample geometry is that of a rectangular strip. We…
The effect of strain in zigzag ribbons of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenides with induced superconductivity is studied using a minimal 3-band tight-binding model. The unstrained system shows a topological phase with Majorana zero…
We study the Haldane model under strain using a tight-binding approach, and compare the obtained results with the continuum-limit approximation. As in graphene, nonuniform strain leads to a time-reversal preserving pseudo-magnetic field…
In topological materials, dissipationless edge currents are protected against local defect scattering by the bulk inverted band structure and band gap. We propose that large uniaxial strain can effectively switch a 2D Chern insulator to a…
Strain is ubiquitous in solid-state materials, but despite its fundamental importance and technological relevance, leveraging externally applied strain to gain control over material properties is still in its infancy. In particular, strain…
Different from the chiral edge states, antichiral edge states propagating in the same direction on the opposite edges are theoretically proposed based on the modified Haldane model, which is recently experimentally realized in photonic…
We explore the electronic structure and topological phase diagram of heterostructures formed of graphene and ternary bismuth tellurohalide layers. We show that mechanical strain inherently present in fabricated samples could induce a…
We study the topological properties of the Haldane and modified Haldane models in $\alpha$-$T_{3}$ lattice. The band structures and phase diagrams of the system are investigated. Individually, each model undergoes a distinct phase…
We study the topological properties of the two-body bound states in an interacting Haldane model as a function of interparticle interactions. In particular, we identify topological phases where the two-body edge states have either the same…
The interest in the properties of edge states in Chern insulators and in $\mathbb{Z}_2$ topological insulator has increased rapidly in recent years. We present calculations on how to influence the transport properties of chiral and helical…
Chiral edge states are the fingerprint of the bulk-edge correspondence in a Chern insulator. Co-propagating edge modes, known as antichiral edge states, have been predicted to occur in the so-called modified Haldane model describing a…
The shift current is part of the second-order optical response of materials with a close connection to topology. Here we report a sign inversion in the band-edge shift photoconductivity of the Haldane model when the system undergoes a…
Strain engineering is a promising approach for suppressing the OFF-state conductance in graphene-based devices that arises from Klein tunnelling. In this work, we derive a comprehensive tight-binding Hamiltonian for strained graphene that…
Antichiral surface states, characterized by unidirectional propagation on parallel surfaces, offer unique potential for controlling classical waves. However, their realization typically relies on complex implementations of the…
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…
The interplay of twist and strain in bilayer graphene enables the formation of moir\'e patterns and narrow bands that host correlated and topological phases. While magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene has been widely studied, strain…
We propose a straightforward and effective approach to design, by strain-engineering, photonic topological insulators supporting high quality factors edge states. Chiral strain-engineering creates opposite synthetic gauge fields in two…
Topological superconductivity is currently one of the prime interests, given the properties of its exotic nature of chiral edge states. A broken time-reversal symmetry (TRS) is an essential ingredient in the recipe of a chiral edge state.…
We propose and analyze a general scheme to create chiral topological edge modes within the bulk of two-dimensional engineered quantum systems. Our method is based on the implementation of topological interfaces, designed within the bulk of…
In this work we analyze infinite graphene nanoribbons subjected to non-uniform magnetic fields that produce topological domain walls in the quantum Hall regime. We show how the proximity between edge states from neighboring domains modifies…
