Chiral, Electronically Decoupled Layers of 1T'-WS2 Topological Insulator via Neutral-Molecule Intercalation
Jiaze Xie, Fatmagül Katmer, Fang Yuan +9
Monolayer 1T'-WS2 is predicted to be a two-dimensional topological insulator, but its intrinsic electronic properties are masked by strong interlayer coupling in its metallic and s…
A Sliding Ferroelectric Resonant Tunnel Junction
Noam Raab, Renu Yadav, Yakov Bloch +7
Ferroelectric tunnel junctions (FTJs) leverage polarization-dependent tunneling through ultrathin barriers to enable two-terminal, non-volatile memory and logic. Although conceptua…
The time qubit
Yakov Bloch
A spin precessing in a magnetic field is often used as a quantum clock, for example in tunneling-time measurements. We show that such a clock can exist in a coherent superposition…
Survival acceleration
Yakov Bloch, Avshalom C. Elitzur
Relativistic time dilation implies that an accelerating excited atom would have its lifetime prolonged in the lab frame. In this paper, we demonstrate a complementary effect: Longe…
