We theoretically study the phase of the reflection amplitude of an electron (massive Dirac fermion) at a lateral potential step in Bernal-stacked bilayer graphene. The phase shows anomalous jump of $\pi$, as the electron incidence angle…
Layered two-dimensional materials exhibit rich transport and optical phenomena in twisted or lattice-incommensurate heterostructures with spatial variations of interlayer hybridization arising from moir\'e interference effects. Here, we…
We develop a unified treatment of the non-Abelian Aharonov-Bohm (AB) effect in isotropic multiband systems, namely, the scattering of particles on a gauge field corresponding to a noncommutative Lie group. We present a complex contour…
We develop a theory of nonlinear response to an electric field of two-dimensional (2D) fermions with topologically non-trivial wave functions characterized by the Berry phase $\Phi_n = n \pi, n = 1,2,...$. In particular, we find that owing…
Moir\'e flat bands in rhombohedral multilayer graphene provide a platform for exploring interaction-driven topological phases, where a single isolated band often forms a Chern band. However, non-Abelian degenerate Chern bands with internal…
Nonlinear Hall-like currents can be generated by a time-periodic alternating bias on two-dimensional (2D) materials lacking inversion symmetry. To hint that the moir\'e between graphene and its supporting substrate contributes to the…
Interest in layered two dimensional materials, particularly stacked heterostructures of transition metal dichalcogenides, has led to the need for a better understanding of the structural and electronic changes induced by stacking. Here, we…
It is here pointed out that the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuation may be associated with a gauge field which gives rise to the antiferromagnetic ground state chirality. This is associated with the chiral anomaly and Berry phase when we…
An incommensurate charge density wave is a periodic modulation of charge that breaks translational symmetry at a momentum that does not coincide with the primitive lattice vectors. Its Goldstone excitation, the phason, comprises collective…
Spontaneous order of layer pseudospins in two-dimensional bilayers is common in quantum Hall systems, where it is responsible for hysteretic responses to gate fields in states with Ising order, and giant drag voltages in states with XY…
We present results of a numerical experiment in which a neutral spin-1/2 particle subjected to a static magnetic vortex field passes through a double-slit barrier. We demonstrate that the resulting interference pattern on a detection screen…
The ideal scalar Aharonov-Bohm (SAB) and Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect involve a magnetic dipole pointing in a certain fixed direction: along a purely time dependent magnetic field in the SAB case and perpendicular to a planar static electric…
Spatial control of topology is highly desirable for realizing tunable quantum functionalities in materials. Moir\'e superlattices formed by twisting van der Waals heterostructures provide a natural platform for spatially modulated…
We report a study of the Aharonov-Bohm effect, the oscillations of the resistance of a mesoscopic ring as a function of a perpendicular magnetic field, in a GaAs two-dimensional hole system with a strong spin-orbit interaction. The Fourier…
Braiding has attracted significant attention in physics because of its important role in describing the fundamental exchange of particles. Infusing the braiding with topological protection will make it robust against imperfections and…
Strain, both naturally occurring and deliberately engineered, can have a considerable effect on the structural and electronic properties of 2D and layered materials. Uniaxial or biaxial heterostrain modifies the stacking arrangement of…
Antiferromagnets (AFMs), in contrast to ferromagnets, show a nontrivial magnetic structure with zero net magnetization. However, they share a number of spintronic effects with ferromagnets, including spin-pumping and spin transfer torques.…
When monolayer graphene is crystallographically aligned to hexagonal boron nitride (BN), a moir\'e superlattice is formed, producing characteristic satellite Dirac peaks in the electronic band structure. Aligning a second BN layer to…
Non-Abelian gauge offers a powerful route to engineer novel topological phenomena. Here, we systematically investigate a two-dimensional (2D) non-Hermitian Hatano-Nelson model incorporating SU(2) non-Abelian gauge, demonstrating the…
We show that the large orbital degeneracy inherent in Moir\'e heterostructures naturally gives rise to a `high-$T_c$' like phase diagram with a chiral twist - wherein an exotic $\textit{quantum anomalous Hall}$ insulator phase is flanked by…
