Observation of Phase Controllable Majorana-like Bound States in Metamaterial-based Kitaev Chain Analogues
Kai Qian, David J. Apigo, Karmela Padavić +3
We experimentally demonstrate that Majorana-like bound states (MLBSs) can occur in quasi-one-dimensional metamaterials, analogous to Majorana zero modes (MZM) in the Kitaev chain.…
Intrinsically Honeycomb-patterned Hydrogenated Graphene with Spin Polarized Edge-states
Yang Song, Kai Qian, Lei Tao +9
Since the advent of graphene ushered the era of two-dimensional materials, many forms of hydrogenated graphene have been reported, exhibiting diverse properties ranging from a tuna…
Observation of Flat Frequency Bands at Open Edges and Antiphase Boundary Seams in Topological Mechanical Metamaterials
Kai Qian, Linghua Zhu, Keun Hyuk Ahn +1
Motivated by the recent theoretical studies on a two-dimensional (2D) chiral Hamiltonian based on the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger chains, we experimentally and computationally demonstrate…
Intrinsically patterned two-dimensional materials for selective adsorption of molecules and nanoclusters
X Lin, JC Lu, Y Shao +23
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have been studied extensively as monolayers 1-5, vertical or lateral heterostructures 6-8. To achieve functionalization, monolayers are often pattern…
Theory and Experimental Investigation of the Quantum Valley Hall Effect
Kai Qian, David J. Apigo, Camelia Prodan +2
The quantum valley Hall effect (QVHE) has been observed in a variety of experimental setups, both quantum and classical. While extremely promising for applications, one should be r…
Topological Edge Modes by Smart Patterning
David Apigo, Kai Qian, Camelia Prodan +1
The research in topological materials and meta-materials reached maturity and is now gradually entering the phase of practical applications and devices. However, scaling down the e…
