Vacancy-Induced Topological Phase Transition via Valley Annihilation in an Anisotropic Honeycomb Lattice
Anna Hassine, Amit Goft, Boris Rotstein +1
A single missing atom can drive a topological phase transition in a lattice that is otherwise trivial for all values of its parameters. We demonstrate this in a two-dimensional hon…

Engineering Topological Materials
Amit Goft, Eric Akkermans
The tenfold classification provides a powerful framework for organizing topological phases of matter based on symmetry and spatial dimension. However, it does not offer a systemati…

Defects Potentials for Two-Dimensional Topological Materials
Yuval Abulafia, Amit Goft, Nadav Orion +1
For non-topological quantum materials, introducing defects can significantly alter their properties by modifying symmetry and generating a nonzero analytical index, thus transformi…
