Atomically Resolved Acoustic Dynamics Coupled with Magnetic Order in a van der Waals Antiferromagnet
Faran Zhou, Kyle Hwangbo, Sung Soo Ha +22
Magnetoelastic coupling in van der Waals (vdW) magnetic materials enables a unique interplay between the spin and lattice degrees of freedom. Characterizing the elastic responses w…
Layerwise Stratification and Band Reordering in Twisted Multilayer MoTe
Yueyao Fan, Xiao-Wei Zhang, Yusen Ye +5
We introduce a generalizable, physics informed strategy for generating training data that enables a machine learning force field accurate over a broad range of twist angles and sta…
Visualizing Electronic Structure of Twisted Bilayer MoTe2 in Devices
Cheng Chen, William Holtzmann, Xiao-Wei Zhang +12
The pursuit of emergent quantum phenomena lies at the forefront of modern condensed matter physics. A recent breakthrough in this arena is the discovery of the fractional quantum a…
Twist-angle transferable continuum model and second flat Chern band in twisted MoTe2 and WSe2
Xiao-Wei Zhang, Kaijie Yang, Chong Wang +3
We develop a twist-angle transferable continuum model for twisted transition metal dichalcogenide (tTMD) homobilayers, using tMoTe2 and tWSe2 as examples. All model parameters are…
Universal Magnetic Phases in Twisted Bilayer MoTe
Weijie Li, Evgeny Redekop, Christiano Wang Beach +15
Twisted bilayer MoTe (tMoTe) has emerged as a robust platform for exploring correlated topological phases, notably supporting fractional Chern insulator (FCI) states at zer…
Geometric Origin of Phonon Magnetic Moment in Dirac Materials
Wenqin Chen, Xiao-Wei Zhang, Ting Cao +2
We develop a theory for the phonon magnetic moment in doped Dirac materials, treating phonons as emergent gauge and gravitational fields coupled to Dirac fermions in curved space.…
