Certifying Nonlocal Spin Quantum Entanglement from Local Tunneling Spectra

Payman Kazemikhah, Ruolun Zhang, Xiangyu Luo +4

Quantum entanglement is intrinsically nonlocal, whereas tunneling spectroscopy measures one site at a time. We show that this apparent mismatch can be overcome: local tunneling spe…

Imaging the topological sign of a Dirac mass with spin-polarized tunneling

Payman Kazemikhah, Ruolun Zhang, Byunghoon Kim +5

A Dirac mass is characterized not only by its magnitude but also by its sign, which influences the Berry curvature, Hall response, and the propagation direction of chiral boundary…
