Van der Waals heterostructures have been used to tailor atomic layers into various artificial materials through interactions at heterointerfaces. The interplay between the band gap created by the band folding of the interfacial potential…
Twisted bilayer graphene with a twist angle of around 1.1{\deg} features a pair of isolated flat electronic bands and forms a strongly correlated electronic platform. Here, we use scanning tunneling microscopy to probe local properties of…
A systematic study of the electronic properties of single layer Sb (antimonene) nanoribbons is presented. By using a 6-orbital tight-binding Hamiltonian, we study the electronic band structure of finite ribbons with zigzag or armchair…
Single-crystalline \beta-Ag2Se nanostructures, a new class of 3D topological insulators (TIs), were synthesized using the chemical vapor transport method. The topological surface states were verified by measuring electronic transport…
Allotropes of carbon, including one-dimensional carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional graphene sheets, continue to draw attention as promising platforms for probing the physics of electrons in lower dimensions. Recent research has shown that…
In crystalline systems with a superstructure, the electron dispersion can form a nontrivial covering of the Brillouin zone. It is proved that the number of sheets in this covering and its monodromy are topological invariants under ambient…
We calculate the electronic structure in quasiperiodic double-moir\'e systems of graphene sandwiched by hexagonal boron nitride, and identify the topological invariants of energy gaps. We find that the electronic spectrum contains a number…
High-order topological insulators (HOTIs), as generalized from topological crystalline insulators (TCIs), are characterized with lower-dimensional metallic boundary states protected by spatial symmetries of a crystal, whose theoretical…
Electronic flat bands have localized Wannier-like orbitals as zero modes. In the Lieb or the kagome models, the localized orbitals satisfy a topological condition that entails two non-contractible loop eigenstates along $x/y$-axis in real…
We report the mechanical properties of different two-dimensional carbon heterojunctions (HJs) made from graphene and various stable graphene allotropes, including {\alpha}-, {\beta}-, {\gamma}- and 6612-graphyne (GY), and graphdiyne (GDY).…
To date, almost all of the discussions on topological insulators (TIs) have focused on two- and three-dimensional systems. One-dimensional (1D) TIs manifested in real materials, in which localized spin states may exist at the end or near…
We investigate non-perturbative features of a three-dimensional Abelian Higgs model with singly- and doubly-charged scalar fields coupled to a single compact Abelian gauge field. The model is pretending to describe various planar systems of…
We investigate electronic transport in gapped bilayer graphene (gBLG) devices. For certain edge terminations -typically a combination of zigzag, armchair, and bearded types - we observe edge state conduction within the band gap, which is…
In this comprehensive study, we conduct a theoretical investigation into the Stark shift of topological states (TSs) in finite armchair graphene nanoribbons (AGNRs) and heterostructures under transverse electric fields. Our focus centers on…
The recent discovery of higher-order topological insulators (HOTIs) has significantly extended our understanding of topological phases of matter. Here, we predict that second-order corner states can emerge in the dipolar-coupled dynamics of…
We theoretically investigated the Floquet states of bilayer graphene heterostructure under the irradiation by horizontally incident circular polarized light. The in-plane and out-of-plane electric field of the light periodically perturbs…
We systematically investigate the emergence of electron crystal phases in rhombohedral multilayer graphene using comprehensive self-consistent Hartree Fock calculations combined with \textit{ab initio} tight binding model. As the carrier…
Graphene, a two dimensional (2D) carbon sheet, acquires many of its amazing properties from the Dirac point nature of its electronic structures with negligible spin-orbit coupling. Extending to 3D space, graphene networks with negative…
The properties of electrons in magnetically ordered crystals are of interest both from the viewpoint of realizing novel topological phases, such as magnetic Weyl semimetals, and from the applications perspective of creating energy-efficient…
The discovery of three-dimensional (3D) topological insulators opens a gateway to generate unusual phases and particles made of the helical surface electrons, proposing new applications using unusual spin nature. Demonstration of the…
