Pseudo-proper two-dimensional electron gas formation

Daniel Bennett, Pablo Aguado-Puente, Emilio Artacho +1

In spite of the interest in the two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) experimentally found at surfaces and interfaces, important uncertainties remain about the observed insulator-…

Coupling between tilts and charge carriers at polar-nonpolar perovskite interfaces

Daniel Bennett, Pablo Aguado-Puente, Emilio Artacho +1

The phenomenological theory for the polar instability giving rise to a two-dimensional electron gas at perovskite interfaces is hereby extended to include the coupling to perovskit…

Thermal topological phase transition in SnTe from \emph{ab-initio} calculations

Pablo Aguado-Puente, Piotr Chudzinski

One of the key issues in the physics of topological insulators is whether the topologically non-trivial properties survive at finite temperatures and, if so, whether they disappear…

Transferring Orbital Angular Momentum to an Electron Beam Reveals Toroidal and Chiral Order

Kayla X. Nguyen, Yi Jiang, Michael C. Cao +13

Orbital angular momentum and torque transfer play central roles in a wide range of magnetic textures and devices including skyrmions and spin-torque electronics(1-4). Analogous top…

Towards temperature-induced topological phase transition in SnTe: A first principles study

José D. Querales-Flores, Pablo Aguado-Puente, Đorđe Dangić +6

The temperature renormalization of the bulk band structure of a topological crystalline insulator, SnTe, is calculated using first principles methods. We explicitly include the eff…

Thermal conductivity of porous polycrystalline PbTe

Javier F. Troncoso, Piotr Chudzinski, Tchavdar N. Todorov +3

PbTe is a leading thermoelectric material at intermediate temperatures, largely thanks to its low lattice thermal conductivity. However, its efficiency is too low to compete with o…
