We study theoretically two-dimensional single-crystalline sheets of semiconductors that form a honeycomb lattice with a period below 10 nm. These systems could combine the usual semiconductor properties with Dirac bands. Using atomistic…
Dirac points are found to emerge due to the crossing of bands in the electronic structure of bilayer graphene for configurations in which the alignment between two hexagonal lattices preserves the parallelism of the armchair/zigzag lines…
Certain lattice wave systems in translationally invariant settings have one or more spectral bands that are strictly flat or independent of momentum in the tight binding approximation, arising from either internal symmetries or fine-tuned…
Temperature- and frequency-dependent infrared spectroscopy identifies two contributions to the electronic properties of the magnetic kagome metal Fe$_3$Sn$_2$: two-dimensional Dirac fermions and strongly correlated flat bands. The interband…
Superconductivity of a single two-dimensional Dirac fermion offers a natural route to topological superconductivity. While usually considered extrinsic -- arising from proximity to a conventional superconductor -- we investigate when a…
Superconductivity in a partially filled flat band presents a vexing conceptual hurdle because the absence of a Fermi surface precludes a weak-coupling regime where one can extend insights from the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer picture of a…
We study the flat-band ferromagnetic phase of a spinfull and time-reversal symmetric Haldane-Hubbard model on a honeycomb lattice within a bosonization formalism for flat-band Z$_2$ topological insulators. Such a study extend our previous…
We study the behavior of Dirac fermions in the presence of electron correlation in a nonsymmorphic Kondo lattice system, CeAgSb2 employing high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles calculations.…
We study the ground state properties of the interacting spinless fermions in the $p_{x,y}$-orbital bands in the two dimensional honeycomb optical lattice, which exhibit different novel features from those in the $p_z$-orbital system of…
We investigate magnetic orderings on kagome lattice numerically from the tight-binding Hamiltonian of electrons, governed by the filling factor and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of electrons. We find that even a simple kagome lattice model can…
Square-octagon lattice underlies the description of a family of two-dimensional materials such as tetragraphene. In the present paper we show that the tight-binding model of square-octagon lattice contains both conventional and high-order…
The superconducting metal-organic framework Cu-BHT forms a kagome lattice with metals at the vertices and ligands along the bonds. This bipartite motif is common in reticular materials. We show that a tight-binding model on this lattice…
Intricate interplay between the periodicity of the lattice structure and that of the cyclotron motion gives rise to a well-known self-similar fractal structure of the energy eigenvalue, known as the Hofstadter butterfly, for an electron…
Non-symmorphic symmetries protect Dirac nodal lines and cones in lattice systems. Here, we investigate the spectral properties of a two-dimensional lattice belonging to a non-symmorphic group. Specifically, we look at the herringbone…
The collective electronic properties of various types of pseudospin-$1$ Dirac-cone materials with a flat band and finite bangaps in their energy spectra are the subject of our reported investigation. Specifically, we have calculated the…
In this article, we show that, in the dissociation regime and under a non-degeneracy assumption, the reduced Hartree-Fock theory of graphene presents Dirac points at the vertices of the first Brillouin zone and that the Fermi level is…
Strongly interacting bosons that live in a lattice with degeneracy in its lowest energy band experience frustration that can prevent the formation of a Bose-Einstein condensate. Such systems form an ideal playground to investigate…
The pyrochlore lattice, a three-dimensional network of corner-sharing tetrahedra, is a promising material playground for correlated topological phases arising from the interplay between spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and electron-electron…
Extensive recent research on Lieb and kagome lattices highlights their unique physics characterized by the coexistence of Dirac points, van Hove singularities, and flat bands. In these models, flat bands are typically pinned at the center…
We propose a feasible experimental scheme to realize a three-dimensional chiral topological insulator with cold fermionic atoms in an optical lattice, which is characterized by an integer topological invariant distinct from the conventional…
