Crystalline Germanium Josephson Junctions
Frederik H. Knudsen, Axel Leblanc, Patrick J. Strohbeen +8
Conventional superconducting quantum electronics rely on well-established Josephson junctions made of Al/AlO where the weak link AlO is amorphous and is believed to hos…
Tunable Narrowband Terahertz Radiation from van der Waals Ferroelectrics
Chun-Ying Huang, Taketo Handa, Daniel G. Chica +10
The terahertz (THz) spectral range is central to high-speed communication, precision metrology, sensing technologies, and a range of fundamental scientific investigations. Achievin…
Ultrafast Charge-Doping via Photo-Thermionic Injection in van der Waals Devices
Yiliu Li, Esteban Rojas-Gatjens, Yinjie Guo +10
Van der Waals (vdW) heterostructures of two-dimensional (2D) materials have become a rich playground for the exploration of correlated quantum phases, and recent studies have begun…
Photoinduced Metal-to-Insulator Transitions in 2D Moiré Devices
Yiliu Li, Esteban Rojas-Gatjens, Yinjie Guo +10
Photoexcitation has been utilized to control quantum matter and to uncover metastable phases far from equilibrium. Among demonstrations to date, the most common is the photo-induce…
Observing the Birth of Rydberg Exciton Fermi Polarons on a Moire Fermi Sea
Eric A. Arsenault, Gillian E. Minarik, Jiaqi Cai +8
The optical spectra of two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors are dominated by tightly bound excitons and trions. In the low doping limit, trions are often described as three-body qua…
Hidden States and Dynamics of Fractional Fillings in tMoTe2 Moiré Superlattices
Yiping Wang, Jeongheon Choe, Eric Anderson +14
The fractional quantum anomalous Hall (FQAH) effect was recently discovered in twisted MoTe2 bilayers (tMoTe2). Experiments to date have revealed Chern insulators from hole doping…
