Evidence of zero-field Wigner solids in ultra-thin films of cadmium arsenide
Simon Munyan, Sina Ahadi, Binghao Guo +2
The quantum Wigner crystal is a many-body state where Coulombic repulsion quenches the kinetic energy of electrons, causing them to crystallize into a lattice. Experimental realiza…

Artificial moiré engineering for an ideal BHZ model
Wangqian Miao, Arman Rashidi, Xi Dai
We demonstrate that (001) grown Cd3As2 thin films with a superlattice-patterned gate can potentially realize the moiré Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang (BHZ) model. Our calculations identify…
