Excitonic insulators (EI) arise from the formation of bound electron-hole pairs (excitons) in semiconductors and provide a solid-state platform for quantum many-boson physics. Strong exciton-exciton repulsion is expected to stabilize…
Introducing, observing, and manipulating individual impurities coupled to a host material offers the opportunity to create new device concepts based on single spin and charge states. Because of potential applications in spintronics and…
Topological insulators are new class of materials which are characterized by a bulk band gap like ordinary band insulator but have protected conducting states on their edge or surface. These states emerge out due to the combination of…
The precession of a ferromagnet leads to the injection of spin current and heat into an adjacent non-magnetic material. Besides, spin-orbit entanglement causes an additional charge current injection. Such a device has been recently proposed…
We investigate a topological switch between second-order topological insulators (SOTIs) and topological crystalline insulators (TCIs). Both the SOTI and the TCI are protected by the mirror and inversion symmetries, for which we define the…
Topological insulators are quantum materials involving Time-reversal protected surface states(TSS) making them appealing candidates for the design of next generation of highly efficient spintronic devices. The very recent observation of…
Controlling magnetic order in magnetic topological insulators (MTIs) is a key to developing spintronic applications with MTIs, and is commonly achieved by changing the magnetic doping concentration, which inevitably affects…
Temperature-linear resistance at low temperatures in strange metals is an exotic characteristic of strong correlation systems, as observed in high-TC superconducting cuprates, heavy fermions, Fe-based superconductors, ruthenates, and…
Enhancing the spin-orbit interaction in graphene, via proximity effects with topological insulators, could create a novel 2D system that combines nontrivial spin textures with high electron mobility. In order to engineer practical…
Hybrid structures of quantum spin-Hall insulators (QSHIs) and superconductors (Ss) present a unique opportunity to access dissipationless topological states of matter, which, however, is frequently hindered by the lack of control over the…
Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators are versatile platforms for exploring exotic quantum phases, especially when combined with high-order van Hove singularities (VHSs) that enhance electron correlations. However, perfect spin Hall…
In recent years, Majorana physics has attracted considerable attention in both theoretical and experimental studies due to exotic new phenomena and its prospects for fault-tolerant topological quantum computation. To this end, one needs to…
We show that the gapless boundary signatures - namely, chiral/helical hinge modes or localized zero modes - of three-dimensional higher-order topological insulators and superconductors with inversion symmetry can be gapped without symmetry…
Spin-orbit coupled materials have attracted revived prominent research interest as of late, especially due their direct connection with topological notions. Arguably, a hallmark of this pursuit is formed by the concept of the topological…
Time reversal symmetric topological insulators are generically robust with respect to weak local interaction, unless symmetry breaking transitions take place. Using dynamical mean-field theory we solve an interacting model of quantum spin…
Strongly correlated analogues of topological insulators have been explored in systems with purely on-site symmetries, such as time-reversal or charge conservation. Here, we use recently developed tensor network tools to study a quantum…
Most topological insulators discovered today in spinful systems can be transformed from topological semimetals (TSMs) with vanishing bulk gap via introducing the spin-orbit coupling (SOC), which manifests the intrinsic links between the…
A two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator (TI) exhibits the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect, in which topologically protected spin-polarized conducting channels exist at the sample edges. Experimental signatures of the QSH effect have…
We propose that ordinary semiconductors with large spin-orbit coupling (SOC), such as GaAs, can host stable, robust, and {\it tunable} topological states in the presence of quantum confinement and superimposed potentials with hexagonal…
We study the surface resistivity of a three-dimensional topological insulator when the boundaries exhibit a non trivial curvature. We obtain an analytical solution for a spherical topological insulator, and we show that a non trivial…
