A quantum spin hall insulator(QSHI) is manifested by its conducting edge channels that originate from the nontrivial topology of the insulating bulk states. Monolayer 1T'-WTe2 exhibits this quantized edge conductance in transport…
High-harmonic generation in two-colour ($\omega-2\omega$) counter-rotating circularly polarised laser fields opens the path to generate isolated attosecond pulses and attosecond pulse trains with controlled ellipticity. The generated…
We report the experimental observation of the spin-Hall effect in a two-dimensional (2D) hole system with Rashba spin-orbit coupling. The 2D hole layer is a part of a p-n junction light-emitting diode with a specially designed co-planar…
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) in solids - the frequency up-conversion of an optical signal - is governed by symmetries. At terahertz (THz) frequencies, HHG is a key technology to access high frequency spectral windows that are…
Moir\'e materials, with superlattice periodicity many times the atomic length scale, have enabled the studies of strong electronic correlations and band topology with unprecedented tunability. However, nonvolatile control of the moir\'e…
The exploration of transverse electromagnetic responses in solids with broken spatial-inversion (I) and/or time-reversal (T) symmetries has unveiled numerous captivating phenomena, including the (anomalous) Hall effect, Faraday rotations,…
Three-dimensional topological insulators are a class of Dirac materials, wherein strong spin-orbit coupling leads to two-dimensional surface states. The latter feature spin-momentum locking, i.e., each momentum vector is associated with a…
The quantum anomalous Hall state with a large band gap and a high Chern number is significant for practical applications in spintronics. By performing first-principles calculations, we investigate electronic properties of the fully…
The Hall voltage sign reversal is consistently explained by the model in which vortices with the superconducting and normal state charge carriers are regarded as three subsystems mutually connected by interactions. The equations of motion…
We measure the frequency dependent capacitance of a gate covering the edge and part of a two-dimensional electron gas in the quantum Hall regime. In applying a positive gate bias, we create a metallic puddle under the gate surrounded by an…
We experimentally studied the Faraday rotation of resonant light in an optically-thick cloud of laser-cooled rubidium atoms. Measurements yield a large Verdet constant in the range of 200 000 degrees/T/mm and a maximal polarization rotation…
Optical properties of a one-dimensional photonic structure consisting of Kerr-type nonlinear and magnetic layers under the action of an external static magnetic field in the Faraday geometry are investigated. The structure is a periodic…
We demonstrate controlled polarization rotation of an optical field conditional on the presence of a second field. Induced rotations of greater than pi/2 rad are seen with a transmission of 95%, corresponding to a ratio of phase shift to…

We theoretically show that the carrier transport in monolayer Fe3GeTe2 experiences a transition between anomalous Hall effect and spin Hall effect when the spin polarization of disorders switches between out-of-plane and in-plane. These…
Recent experimental results have demonstrated the ability of monolayer MoS$_2$ to efficiently generate second harmonic fields with susceptibilities between 0.1 and 100 nm/V. However, no theoretical calculations exist with which to interpret…
Resistivity Rho(T), Hall coefficient RH(T), superconducting transition temperature Tc and slopes of the upper critical field dHc2/dT were studied in (Ba1-xKx)Fe2As2 (x = 0.218, 0.356, 0.531) single crystals irradiated with fast neutrons. It…
A three-dimensional topological insulator features a two-dimensional surface state consisting of a single linearly-dispersive Dirac cone. Under broken time-reversal symmetry, the single Dirac cone is predicted to cause half-integer…
Magnetism and spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are two quintessential ingredients underlying novel topological transport phenomena in itinerant ferromagnets. When spin-polarized bands support nodal points/lines with band degeneracy that can be…
