Investigation of plasmonic evolution of atomically size-selected Au clusters by electron energy loss spectrum--from solid state to molecular scale
Siqi Lu, Lin Xie, Kang Lai +13
Versatile quantum modes emerge for plasmon describing the collective oscillations of free electrons in metallic nanoparticles when the particle sizes are greatly reduced. Rather th…
A Gd@C82-based single molecular electret device with switchable electrical polarization
Kangkang Zhang, Cong Wang, Minhao Zhang +21
Single molecular electrets exhibiting single molecule electric polarization switching have been long desired as a platform for extremely small non-volatile storage devices, althoug…
Nearly quantized conductance plateau of vortex zero mode in an iron-based superconductor
Shiyu Zhu, Lingyuan Kong, Lu Cao +15
Majorana zero-modes (MZMs) are spatially-localized zero-energy fractional quasiparticles with non-Abelian braiding statistics that hold a great promise for topological quantum comp…
Observation of half-integer level shift of vortex bound states in an iron-based superconductor
Lingyuan Kong, Shiyu Zhu, Michał Papaj +14
Vortices in topological superconductors host Majorana zero modes (MZMs), which are proposed to be building blocks of fault-tolerant topological quantum computers. Recently, a new s…
