Quantum Geometry Driven Finite-Momentum Exciton Fluctuations in Flat-Band Systems
Yi-Chun Hung, Xiaoting Zhou, Arun Bansil
Quantum geometry is instrumental in stabilizing exotic phenomena in systems ranging from topological insulators to superconductors. In dispersionless flat bands, where the kinetic…
Breakdown of Topological Inheritance and Twist-Induced Quantum Geometry Reconfiguration in Moiré Flat Bands
Yi-Chun Hung, Xiaoting Zhou, Arun Bansil
Since the inception of moiré quantum matter, a foundational tenet of the field has been that the quantum geometry of emergent flat bands is faithfully inherited from the low-energ…
Quantum Geometry of Moiré Flat Bands Beyond the Valley Paradigm
Xiaoting Zhou, Yi-Chun Hung, Arun Bansil
Flat bands in moiré superlattices provide a fertile ground for correlated and topological phases, governed by their quantum geometric properties. While the valley-based paradigm c…
Geometry-Driven Moiré Engineering in Twisted Bilayers of High-Pseudospin Fermions
Yi-Chun Hung, Xiaoting Zhou, Arun Bansil
Moiré engineering offers new pathways for manipulating emergent states in twisted layered materials and lattice-mismatched heterostructures. With the key role of the geometry of t…
