Effects of gold cluster intercalation in graphene: stationary waves and modified QPI features

Cristina Bena, Marion Cranney, Poonam Kumari +2

Gold intercalation beneath epitaxial graphene on SiC produces a cluster phase with unusual standing waves and quasiparticle-interference (QPI) features concentrated near the graphe…

An iterative method bridging DFT, disorder averaging, and experiment in intercalated materials: application to Au-intercalated graphene

Poonam Kumari, Alberto Zobelli, Igor de Melo Froldi +3

Intercalation can strongly modify the electronic dispersion of a host material, as directly revealed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). We develop a general iter…

Probing quasiparticle excitations in a doped Mott insulator via Friedel oscillations

Anurag Banerjee, Emile Pangburn, Catherine Pépin +1

In this work, we investigate impurity-induced Friedel oscillations in the doped two-dimensional Hubbard model, focusing on the role of holon and doublon excitations. We show that w…

Impurity-induced Mott ring states and Mott zeros ring states in the Hubbard operator formalism

Emile Pangburn, Anurag Banerjee, Catherine Pépin +1

We study the formation of subgap impurity states in strongly correlated Mott insulators. We use a composite operator method that gives us access to both the bulk Green's function,…

Quasiparticle interference and spectral function of the UTe superconductive surface band

Adeline Crépieux, Emile Pangburn, Shuqiu Wang +7

We compute the (0-11) surface spectral function, the surface density of states (DOS), and the quasiparticle interference (QPI) patterns, both in the normal state and superconductin…

Odd-Parity Quasiparticle Interference in the Superconductive Surface State of UTe2

Shuqiu Wang, Kuanysh Zhussupbekov, Joseph P. Carroll +13

Although no known material exhibits intrinsic topological superconductivity, wherein spin-triplet odd-parity electron pairing occurs, UTe2 is now the leading representative of this…

Majorana bound states in open quasi-1D and 2D systems with transverse Rashba coupling

N. Sedlmayr, J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, C. Bena

We study the formation of Majorana states in quasi-1D and 2D square lattices with open boundary conditions, with general anisotropic Rashba coupling, in the presence of an applied…

Majoranas with and without a 'character': hybridization, braiding and Majorana number

N. Sedlmayr, M. Guigou, P. Simon +1

In this paper we demonstrate under what conditions a pseudo-spin degree of freedom or character can be ascribed to the Majorana bound states (MBS) which can be created at the end o…

Flat Majorana bands in 2-d lattices with inhomogeneous magnetic fields: topology and stability

N. Sedlmayr, J. M. Aguiar-Hualde, C. Bena

In this paper we show that for a range of configurations of inhomogeneous magnetic fields it is possible to create flat bands of Majorana states localized on the edges of 2-d latti…

Density of states of interacting quantum wires with impurities: a Dyson equation approach

R. Zamoum, M. Guigou, C. Bena +1

We calculate the density of states for an interacting quantum wire in the presence two impurities of arbitrary potential strength. To perform this calculation, we describe the Coul…

Superlattice of resonators on monolayer graphene created by intercalated gold nanoclusters

M. Cranney, F. Vonau, P. B. Pillai +5

Here we report on a "new" type of ordering which allows to modify the electronic structure of a graphene monolayer (ML). We have intercalated small gold clusters between the top mo…

Quasiparticle Chirality in Epitaxial Graphene Probed at the Nanometer Scale

I. Brihuega, P. Mallet, C. Bena +7

Graphene exhibits unconventional two-dimensional electronic properties resulting from the symmetry of its quasiparticles, which leads to the concepts of pseudospin and electronic c…
