Charge- superconductivity from nematic superconductors in 2D and 3D

Shao-Kai Jian, Yingyi Huang, Hong Yao

Charge- superconductivity as a novel phase of matter remains elusive so far. Here we show that charge- phase can arise as a vestigial order above the nematic superconductin…

Three-dimensional time reversal invariant topological superconductivity in doped chiral topological semimetals

Yingyi Huang, Shao-Kai Jian

Chiral topological semimetals host multifold degenerate band crossing points under the protection of crystalline symmetries. In this paper, we suggest that the recently discovered…

Scalable Majorana vortex modes in iron-based superconductors

Ching-Kai Chiu, T. Machida, Yingyi Huang +2

A vortex in an s-wave superconductor with a surface Dirac cone can trap a Majorana bound state with zero energy leading to a zero-bias peak (ZBP) of tunneling conductance. The iron…

Quasiparticle gaps in multiprobe Majorana nanowires

Yingyi Huang, Jay D. Sau, Tudor D. Stanescu +1

We theoretically study a spin-orbit-coupled nanowire proximitized by a superconductor in the presence of an externally applied Zeeman field ("Majorana nanowire") with zero-energy M…

Metamorphosis of Andreev bound states into Majorana bound states in pristine nanowires

Yingyi Huang, Haining Pan, Chun-Xiao Liu +3

We show theoretically that in the generic finite chemical potential situation, the clean superconducting spin-orbit-coupled nanowire has two distinct nontopological regimes as a fu…

Disorder-induced half-integer quantized conductance plateau in quantum anomalous Hall insulator-superconductor structures

Yingyi Huang, F. Setiawan, Jay D. Sau

A weak superconducting proximity effect in the vicinity of the topological transition of a quantum anomalous Hall system has been proposed as a venue to realize a topological super…

Helical Majorana edge mode in a superconducting antiferromagnetic quantum spin Hall insulator

Yingyi Huang, Ching-Kai Chiu

A two-dimensional time-reversal symmetric topological superconductor is a fully gapped system possessing a helical Majorana mode on the edges. This helical Majorana edge mode (HMEM…

Consecutive Insulator-Metal-Insulator Phase Transitions of Vanadium Dioxide by Hydrogen Doping

Shi Chen, Zhaowu Wang, Lele Fan +7

We report modulation of a reversible phase transition in VO2 films by hydrogen doping. A metallic phase and a new insulating phase are successively observed at room temperature as…

Kibble-Zurek mechanism beyond adiabaticity: Finite-time scaling with critical initial slip

Yingyi Huang, Shuai Yin, Qijun Hu +1

The Kibble-Zurek mechanism demands an initial adiabatic stage before an impulse stage to have a frozen correlation length that generates topological defects in a cooling phase tran…

Kibble-Zurek Mechanism and Finite-Time Scaling

Yingyi Huang, Shuai Yin, Baoquan Feng +1

The Kibble-Zurek (KZ) mechanism has been applied to a variety of systems ranging from low temperature Bose-Einstein condensations to grand unification scales in particle physics an…
