Because it is easily switched from insulator to metal either via chemical doping or electrical gating, silicon is at the core of modern information technology and remains a candidate platform for quantum computing. The metal-to-insulator…
Two-dimensional multiferroic van der Waals heterostructures provide a promising platform for the simultaneous control of distinct ferroic orders, with potential applications in magnetoelectric devices and spintronics. The practical…
Gapless surface states that are protected by time reversal symmetry and charge conservation are among the manifestations of 3D topological insulators. In this work we study how electron-electron interaction may lead to spontaneous breaking…
van der Waals stacking of two-dimensional (2D) materials offers a powerful platform for engineering material interfaces with tailored electronic and optical properties. While most van der Waals multilayers have featured inorganic…
A theory of combined interference and interaction effects on the diffusive transport properties of 3D topological insulator surface states is developed. We focus on a slab geometry (characteristic for most experiments) and show that…
We theoretically investigate the binding energy and electron-hole (e-h) overlap of excitonic states confined at the interface between two-dimensional materials with type-II band alignment, i.e., with lowest conduction and highest valence…
In this work, we investigate the structural, magnetic, and microwave magnetic dynamics of multilayered \([{\rm LSMO}/{\rm SRO}]_n\) heterostructures \((n = 1 \text{ and } 5)\) grown on SrTiO\(_3\) (001) substrates. X-ray diffraction…
Shapes of colloids matter at liquid interfaces. We explore the interactions between rough-surfaced nanocolloids at the air--water interface through the compaction of monolayers experimentally and numerically. Sufficiently rough systems…
Using first-principles calculations, we study the magnetic properties of a Co monolayer on a Pt(111) surface with a capping monolayer of selected $5d$ elements (Re, Os, Ir, Pt and Au). First we determine the tensorial exchange interactions…
We theoretically study the magnetic proximity effect in the three dimensional (3D) topological insulator/ferromagnetic insulator (TI/FMI) structures in the context of possibility to manage the Dirac helical state in TI. Within continual…
The discovery of correlated states in moire materials has challenged the established methods of projecting interactions into a local Wannier basis due to topological obstructions that manifest in extended interactions. This difficulty can…
We construct a model for interacting electrons with strong spin orbit coupling in the pyrochlore iridates. We establish the importance of the direct hopping process between the Ir atoms and use the relative strength of the direct and…
While $\sim$30% of materials are reported to be topological, topological insulators are rare. Magnetic topological insulators (MTI) are even harder to find. Identifying crystallographic features that can host the coexistence of a…
While superconductors are conventionally established by attractive interactions, higher-temperature mechanisms for emergent electronic pairing from strong repulsive electron-electron interactions remain under considerable scrutiny. Here, we…
Conventional topological Hall effects (THE) require conducting magnets, leaving insulating systems largely inaccessible. Here we introduce the interfacial topological Hall effect (ITHE), where the noncoplanar spin textures of insulating…
To harness the true potential of topological insulators as quantum materials for information processing, it is imperative to maximise topological surface state conduction, while simulateneously improving their quantum coherence. However,…
Interactions between the surface and the bulk in a strong topological insulator (TI) cause a finite lifetime of the topological surface states (TSS) as shown by the recent experiments. On the other hand, interactions also induce unitary…
We report emergent magnetic behavior in heterostructures composed of (111)-oriented La$_{0.7}$Sr$_{0.3}$MnO$_3$ (LSMO) and (00$l$)-oriented Bi$_2$Te$_3$ (BT), controlled by interfacial reconstructions. When BT is deposited directly onto…
We designed spongy monoliths allowing liquid delivery to their surfaces through continuous nanopore systems (mean pore diameter ca. 40 nm). These nanoporous monoliths were flat or patterned with microspherical structures a few 10 microns in…
Discovering materials that combine topological phenomena with correlated electron behavior is a central pursuit in quantum materials research. Monolayer TaIrTe$_4$ has recently emerged as a promising platform in this context, hosting robust…
