A Novel Architecture for room temperature microwave optomechanical experiments
Sumit Kumar, Sebastian Spence, Simon Perrett +5
We have developed a novel architecture for room temperature microwave cavity optomechanics, which is based on the coupling of a 3D microwave reentrant cavity to a compliant membran…
Chiral superfluid helium-3 in the quasi-two-dimensional limit
Petri J. Heikkinen, Lev V. Levitin, Xavier Rojas +8
Anisotropic pair breaking close to surfaces favors the chiral A phase of the superfluid He over the time-reversal invariant B phase. Confining the superfluid He into a cavi…
Nanofluidic platform for studying the first-order phase transitions in superfluid helium-3
Petri J. Heikkinen, Nathan Eng, Lev V. Levitin +9
The symmetry-breaking first-order phase transition between superfluid phases He-A and He-B can be triggered extrinsically by ionising radiation or heterogeneous nucleation…
Topological states and phase transitions in SbTe-GeTe multilayers
Thuy-Anh Nguyen, Dirk Backes, Angadjit Singh +7
Topological insulators (TIs) are bulk insulators with exotic 'topologically protected' surface conducting modes. It has recently been pointed out that when stacked together, intera…
