A Magic Ratio Rule for Beginners: a Chemist's Guide to Quantum Interference in Molecules

Colin J. Lambert, Shi-Xia Liu

This overview will give a glimpse into chemical design principles for exploiting quantum interference (QI) effects in molecular-scale devices. Direct observation of room temperatur…

Cyclotron resonance of the magnetic ratchet effect and second harmonic generation in bilayer graphene

Narjes Kheirabadi, Edward McCann, Vladimir I. Fal'ko

We model the magnetic ratchet effect in bilayer graphene in which a dc electric current is produced by an ac electric field of frequency in the presence of a steady in-plane ma…

Field-Effect Control of Graphene-Fullerene Thermoelectric Nanodevices

Pascal Gehring, Achim Harzheim, Jean Spièce +10

Although it was demonstrated that discrete molecular levels determine the sign and magnitude of the thermoelectric effect in single-molecule junctions, full electrostatic control o…

Diffusion quantum Monte Carlo study of excitonic complexes in two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides

E. Mostaani, M. Szyniszewski, C. H. Price +5

Excitonic effects play a particularly important role in the optoelectronic behavior of two-dimensional semiconductors. To facilitate the interpretation of experimental photoabsorpt…

Transport properties of an interacting Majorana chain

Zhao Liu, Emil J. Bergholtz, Alessandro Romito +1

We study a one-dimensional (1D) chain of Majorana bound states, which interact through a local quartic interaction. This model describes for example the edge physics of a quas…

Stability of trions in coupled quantum wells modelled by two-dimensional bilayers

O. Witham, R. J. Hunt, N. D. Drummond

We report variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculations of the binding energies of indirect trions and biexcitons in ideal two-dimensional bilayer systems within the e…

Optical identification using imperfections in 2D materials

Yameng Cao, Alexander J. Robson, Abdullah Alharbi +8

The ability to uniquely identify an object or device is important for authentication. Imperfections, locked into structures during fabrication, can be used to provide a fingerprint…

High-temperature quantum oscillations caused by recurring Bloch states in graphene superlattices

R. Krishna Kumar, X. Chen, G. H. Auton +13

Cyclotron motion of charge carriers in metals and semiconductors leads to Landau quantization and magneto-oscillatory behavior in their properties. Cryogenic temperatures are usual…

Interaction-induced insulating states in multilayer graphenes

Mikito Koshino, Kyoka Sugisawa, Edward McCann

We explore the electronic ground states of Bernal-stacked multilayer graphenes using the Hartree-Fock mean-field approximation and the full-parameter band model. We find that the e…

Exciton Polaritons in a Two-Dimensional Lieb Lattice with Spin-Orbit Coupling

C. E. Whittaker, E. Cancellieri, P. M. Walker +10

We study exciton-polaritons in a two-dimensional Lieb lattice of micropillars. The energy spectrum of the system features two flat bands formed from and photonic orbi…

Superballistic flow of viscous electron fluid through graphene constrictions

R. Krishna Kumar, D. A. Bandurin, F. M. D. Pellegrino +13

Electron-electron (e-e) collisions can impact transport in a variety of surprising and sometimes counterintuitive ways. Despite strong interest, experiments on the subject proved c…

Ubiquitous non-local entanglement with Majorana bound states

Alessandro Romito, Yuval Gefen

Entanglement in quantum mechanics contradicts local realism, and is a manifestation of quantum non-locality. Its presence can be detected through the violation of Bell, or CHSH ine…

Topological tight-binding models from non-trivial square roots

J. Arkinstall, M. H. Teimourpour, L. Feng +2

We describe a versatile mechanism that provides tight-binding models with an enriched, topologically nontrivial bandstructure. The mechanism is algebraic in nature, and leads to ti…
