Spectroscopic evidence for a molecular orbital Kondo insulator
Ke-Jun Xu, Kuan H. Hsu, Nathan Giles-Donovan +13
A Kondo insulator (KI) is a prototypical example of a highly entangled phase of matter, where many-body interactions between local moments and delocalized electrons engender the no…
Strongly-coupled hybrid lattice-plasmons in layered cuprates
Ke-Jun Xu, Nathan Giles-Donovan, Stefano Agrestini +11
Metallic systems with delocalized valence electrons host collective charge density oscillations known as plasmons. On the other hand, conventional insulators do not have free elect…
Spontaneously formed phonon frequency combs in van der Waals solid CrXTe (X=Ge,Si)
Lebing Chen, Gaihua Ye, Cynthia Nnokwe +10
Optical phonon engineering through nonlinear effects has been utilized in ultrafast control of material properties. However, nonlinear optical phonons typically exhibit rapid decay…
Charge Density Fluctuations with Enhanced Superconductivity at the Proposed Nematic Quantum Critical Point
Youzhe Chen, Nathan Giles-Donovan, Jiayu Guo +7
A quantum critical point (QCP) represents a continuous phase transition at absolute zero. At the QCP of an unconventional superconductor, enhanced superconducting transition temper…
