The anomalous spatial shifts at interface scattering, first studied in geometric optics, recently found their counterparts in the electronic context. It was shown that both longitudinal and transverse shifts, analogous to the Goos-Hanchen…
We review and refine analytical results on the density of states in a long disordered superconductor - normal-metal - superconductor junction with transparent interfaces. Our analysis includes the behavior of the minigap near phase…
Topological edge states are recently attracting intense interest due to their robustness in the presence of disorder and defects. However, most approaches for manipulating such states require global modulations of the system's Hamiltonian.…
I consider a simple model of a three-band superconductor with repulsive interband interactions. The frustration, associated with the odd number of bands, leads to the possible existence of an intrinsically complex time-reversal symmetry…
Non-Hermitian skin-edge states emerge only at one edge in one-dimensional nonreciprocal chains, where all states are localized at the edge irrespective of eigenvalues. The bulk topological number is the winding number associated with the…
We study phase separation in two dimensions in the scaling limit below criticality. The general form of the magnetization profile as the volume goes to infinity is determined exactly within the field theoretical framework which explicitly…
The interplay between the non-Hermitian skin effect and the imaginary gap of lossy lattices results in the edge burst, a boundary-induced dynamical phenomenon in which an exceptionally large portion of particle loss occurs at the edge.…
At low temperature, the concentration of quasiparticles observed in superconducting circuits far exceeds the predictions of microscopic BCS theory at equilibrium. As a source of dissipation, these excess quasiparticles degrade the…
Topologically protected edge states arise at the interface of two topologically distinct valley photonic crystals. In this work, we investigate how tailoring the interface geometry, specifically from a zigzag interface to a glide plane,…
The contact resistance between two dissimilar semiconductors is determined by the carrier transmission through their interface. Despite the ubiquitous presence of interfaces, quantitative simulation of charge transport across such…
Edge states of semi-infinite nanowires in tight binding limit are examined. We argue that understanding these edge states provides a pathway to generic comprehension of surface states in many semi-infinite physical systems. It is shown that…
We find that the total spectrum of electron states in a bounded 2D electron gas with spin-orbit interaction contains two types of evanescent states lying in different energy ranges. The first-type states fill in a gap, which opens in the…
We compare results of the exact field theory of phase separation in two dimensions with Monte Carlo simulations for the $q$-state Potts model with boundary conditions producing an interfacial region separating two pure phases. We confirm in…
Two-dimensional topological insulators possess conducting edge states at their boundary while being insulating in the bulk. The detection of edge states remains an open question in ultracold atom setups. We propose a configuration to…
The appearance of topologically protected states at the surface of an ordinary insulator is a rare occurrence and to date only a handful of materials are known for having this property. An intriguing question concerns the possibility of…
The process of rapid solidification of a binary mixture is considered in the framework of local nonequilibrium model (LNM) based on the assumption that there is no local equilibrium in solute diffusion in the bulk liquid and at the…
Quantitative description of charge transport across tunneling and break-junction devices with novel superconductors encounters some problems not present, or not as severe for traditional superconducting materials. In this work, we explain…
In this paper we study analytically a one-dimensional model for a semiconductor-metal junction. We study the formation of Tamm states and how they evolve when the semi-infinite semiconductor and metal are coupled together. The non-linear…
Phase- and voltage bias-sensitive quasiparticle transport at a double $NIS_1IS_2$ interface is considered. The barriers $I$ range from tunnel to transparent, and the intermediate region $S_1$ has a width comparable to the superconducting…
The dispersive interaction between a qubit and a cavity is ubiquitous in circuit and cavity quantum electrodynamics. It describes the frequency shift of one quantum mode in response to excitations in the other, and in closed systems is…
