Modelling of time-dependent electrostatic effects and AFM-based surface conductivity characterization

Mario Navarro-Rodriguez, Paul Philip Schmidt, Regina Hoffmann-Vogel +2

Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) combined with electrical modes provides a powerful contactless approach to characterize material electrical properties at the nanoscale. However, conv…

Worldsheet patching, 1-form symmetries, and "Landau-star" phase transitions

Pablo Serna, Andrés M. Somoza, Adam Nahum

The analysis of phase transitions of gauge theories has relied heavily on simplifications that arise at the boundaries of phase diagrams, where certain excitations are forbidden. T…

Overactivated transport in the localized phase of the superconductor-insulator transition

V. Humbert, M. Ortũno, A. M. Somoza +3

Beyond a critical disorder, two-dimensional (2D) superconductors become insulating. In this Superconductor-Insulator Transition (SIT), the nature of the insulator is still controve…

Self-dual criticality in three-dimensional gauge theory with matter

Andrés M. Somoza, Pablo Serna, Adam Nahum

The simplest topologically ordered phase in 2+1D is the deconfined phase of gauge theory, realized for example in the toric code. This phase permits a duality that exchanges…

Construction of Many-Body Eigenstates with Displacement Transformations

Miguel Ortuño, Andres M. Somoza, Louk Rademaker

Many-body eigenstates beyond the gaussian approximation can be constructed in terms of local integrals of motion (IOM), although their actual computation has been until now a daunt…

Charging of highly resistive granular metal films

M. F. Orihuela, M. Ortuno, A. M. Somoza +4

We have used the Scanning Kelvin probe microscopy technique to monitor the charging process of highly resistive granular thin films. The sample is connected to two leads and is sep…
