Chiral Wigner crystal phases induced by Berry curvature
Sandeep Joy, Leonid Levitov, Brian Skinner
We consider the impact of Berry phase on the Wigner crystal (WC) state of a two-dimensional electron system. We consider first a model of Bernal bilayer graphene with a perpendicul…

Ultrahigh Anomalous Nernst Thermopower and Thermal Hall Angle in YbMnBi2
Jiamin Wen, Kaustuv Manna, Dung Vu +5
Thermoelectrics (TEs) are solid-state devices that can realize heat-electricity conversion. Transverse TEs require materials with a large Nernst effect, which typically requires a…

Disorder-induced liquid-solid phase coexistence in 2D electron systems
Sandeep Joy, Brian Skinner
Recent imaging experiments show a surprisingly robust regime of liquid-solid phase coexistence in a 2D electron system near the quantum melting/freezing transition, with the two ph…
