We show that a sliding motion between the two layers of a \moire superlattice induces an electric current and realizes a two-dimensional version of the topological Thouless pump when the Fermi energy lies in one of the minigaps.…

We study the edge states of twisted bilayer graphene and their topological origin. We show that the twisted bilayer graphene has special edge states associated with the moir\'{e} pattern, and the emergence of these moir\'{e} edge states is…

Topological charge pumping represents an important quantum phenomenon that shows the fundamental connection to the topological properties of dynamical systems. Here, we introduce a pumping process in a spin-dependent double-well optical…

We investigate the effect of sliding motion of layers in Moir\'e heterostructures on the electronic state. We show that the sliding Moir\'e heterostructure can generate nontrivial topology characterized by the first and second Chern number…

Sliding bilayers are systems that exploit the possibility of relatively translating two monolayers along a specific direction in real space, such that different stackings could be implemented in the process. This simple approach allows for…

Interlayer sliding, together with twist angle, is a crucial parameter that defines the atomic registry and thus determines the properties of two-dimensional (2D) material homobilayers. Here, we theoretically demonstrate that controlled…

We demonstrate theoretically that the topology of energy bands and Fermi surface in bilayer graphene undergoes a very sensitive transition when extremely tiny lateral interlayer shift occurs in arbitrary directions. The phenomenon…

Moir\'e phonons describe collective vibrations of a moir\'e superlattice produced by long-wavelength relative displacements of the constituent layers. Despite coming from the backfolding of the acoustic phonons of the individual layers,…

A lattice mismatch between Van der Waals layers produces a moir\'e pattern and a subsequent electron band reconstruction. When the bilayer is charged, the sliding motion of one layer with respect to the other produces electric pumping. Here…

We use exact techniques to demonstrate theoretically the pumping of fractional charges in a single-level non-interacting quantum dot, when the dot-reservoir coupling is adiabatically driven from weak to strong coupling. The pumped charge…

We demonstrate that sliding motion between two layers of the newly discovered ferroelectric and topologically trivial bismuth (Bi) monolayer [Nature 617, 67 (2023)] can induce a sequence of topological phase transitions, alternating between…

The ability to pump quantised amounts of charge is one of the hallmarks of topological materials. An archetypical example is Laughlin's gauge argument for transporting an integer number of electrons between the edges of a quantum Hall…

The adiabatic topological pumping is proposed by periodically modulating a semiconductor nanowire double-quantum-dot chain. We demonstrate that the quantized charge transport can be achieved by a nontrivial modulation of the quantum-dot…

Topological flat bands at the Fermi level offer a promising platform to study a variety of intriguing correlated phase of matter. Here we present band engineering in the twisted orbital-active bilayers with spin-orbit coupling. The symmetry…

Quantized adiabatic transport can occur when a system is slowly modulated over time. In most realizations however, the efficiency of such transport is reduced by unwanted dissipation, back-scattering, and non-adiabatic effects. In this…

We show that in excitonic insulators with $s$-wave electron-hole pairing, an applied electric field (either pulsed or static) can induce a $p$-wave component to the order parameter, and further drive it to rotate in the $s+ip$ plane,…

We demonstrate the existence of a conceptually distinct topological pumping phenomenon in one-dimensional chains undergoing topological adiabatic cycles. Specifically, for a stack of two semi-infinite chains cycled in opposite directions…

Based on the Floquet scattering theory, we analytically investigate the topological spin pumping for an exactly solvable model. Floquet spin Chern numbers are introduced to characterize the periodically time-dependent system. The…

We model atomic motion in a sliding superlattice potential to explore topological "charge pumping" and to find optimal parameters for experimental observation of this phenomenon. We analytically study the band-structure, finding how the…

It is shown that twisted $n$-layers have an intrinsic degree of freedom living on $2n$-tori, which is the phason supplied by the relative slidings of the layers and that the twist generates pseudo magnetic fields. As a result, twisted…
