Relaxation dynamics of a quantum spin coupled to a topological edge state
Qiyu Liu, Christoph Karrasch, Dante Marvin Kennes +1
A classical impurity spin coupled to the spinful Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) chain is known to exhibit complex switching dynamics with incomplete spin relaxation. Here, we study the…
Persistent Haldane Phase in Carbon Tetris Chains
Anas Abdelwahab, Christoph Karrasch, Roman Rausch
We introduce the concept of tetris chains, which are linear arrays of 4-site molecules that differ by their intermolecular hopping geometry. We investigate the fermionic symmetry-p…
Investigating Stark many-body localization with continuous unitary transformation flows
Jan-Niklas Herre, Qiyu Liu, Roman Rausch +2
We investigate the ergodicity-to-localization transition in interacting fermion systems subjected to a spatially uniform electric field. For that we employ the recently proposed Te…
Atacamite CuCl(OH) in High Magnetic Fields: Quantum Criticality and Dimensional Reduction of a Sawtooth-Chain Compound
L. Heinze, T. Kotte, R. Rausch +13
We report an extensive high-field study of atacamite CuCl(OH), a material realization of quantum sawtooth chains with weak interchain couplings, in continuous and pulsed ma…
