Recent experiments on bilayer graphene twisted near the magic angle have observed spontaneous integer quantum Hall states in the presence of an aligned hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) substrate. These states arise from valley ferromagnetism,…
Recent experimental evidence for the quantum spin Hall (QSH) state in monolayer WTe$_2$ has bridged two of the most active fields of condensed matter physics, 2D materials and topological physics. This 2D topological crystal also displays…
Quasicrystals are characterized by atomic arrangements possessing long-range order without periodicity. Van der Waals (vdW) bilayers provide a unique opportunity to controllably vary atomic alignment between two layers from a periodic…
We demonstrate a new quantum state of matter---valley-polarized quantum anomalous Hall effect in monolayer silicene. In the presence of extrinsic Rashba spin-orbit coupling and exchange field, monolayer silicene can host a quantum…
We investigate spin and valley symmetry-broken fractional quantum Hall phases within a formalism that naturally extends the paradigm of quantum Hall ferromagnetism from integer to fractional quantum Hall states, allowing us to construct…
Magnetic transition metal chalcogenides form an emerging platform for exploring spin-orbit driven Berry phase phenomena owing to the nontrivial interplay between topology and magnetism. Here we show that the anomalous Hall effect in…
The quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect is conventionally understood to exist only in Chern insulators, while a recent study has shown that ferromagnetic metals can also host the QAH effect. Between insulators and metals, we demonstrate…
The search for topologically non-trivial states of matter has become an important goal for condensed matter physics. Recently, a new class of topological insulators has been proposed. These topological insulators have an insulating gap in…
The understanding of the Chern insulator and anomalous quantum Hall effect (AQHE) in terms of chiral edge states in confined systems is the first aim of the paper. The model we use consists in a diatomic square lattice with hopping to the…
The fractional quantum Hall effect is a very particular manifestation of electronic correlations in two-dimensional systems in a strong perpendicular magnetic field. It arises as a consequence of a strong Coulomb repulsion between electrons…
Valleytronic materials, characterized by local extrema (valley) in their bands, and topological insulators have separately attracted great interest recently. However, the interplay between valleytronic and topological properties in one…
We present a topological description of quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE) in a two-dimensional electron system on honeycomb lattice with both intrinsic and Rashba spin-orbit couplings. We show that the topology of the band insulator can be…
We show that the quantum Zeno effect gives rise to the Hall effect by tailoring the Hilbert space of a two-dimensional lattice system into a single Bloch band with a nontrivial Berry curvature. Consequently, a wave packet undergoes…
We theoretically report that, with \textit{in-plane} magnetization, the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) can be realized in two-dimensional atomic crystal layers with preserved inversion symmetry but broken out-of-plane mirror…
We study the edge spectrum of twisted sheets of single layer and bilayer graphene in cases where the continuum model predicts a valley Chern insulator -- an insulating state in which the occupied moir\'e mini-bands from each valley have a…
Quasi-periodically driven quantum systems are predicted to exhibit quantized topological properties, in analogy with the quantized transport properties of topological insulators. We use a single nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond to…
We report the observation of a pronounced third-order nonlinear Hall effect (NLHE) in 1$T$-phase VSe$_2$ nanosheets, synthesized using chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The nanosheets exhibit a charge density wave (CDW) transition at…
The quantum Hall bilayer (QHB) at filling factor $ \nu = 1 $ represents a competition between Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) at small distances between layers and fermionic condensation, whose influence grows with distance and results in…
The non-linear generalization of the Hall effect has recently gained much attention, with a rapidly growing list of non-centrosymmetric materials that display higher-order Hall responses under time-reversal invariant conditions. The…
The quantum geometric tensor (QGT) characterizes the complete geometric properties of quantum states, with the symmetric part being the quantum metric, and the antisymmetric part being the Berry curvature. We propose a generic Hamiltonian…
