Evidence for equilibrium excitons and exciton condensation in monolayer WTe2

Bosong Sun, Wenjin Zhao, Tauno Palomaki +14

A single monolayer of the layered semimetal WTe2 behaves as a two-dimensional topological insulator, with helical conducting edge modes surrounding a bulk state that becomes insula…

Determination of the spin axis in quantum spin Hall insulator monolayer WTe2

Wenjin Zhao, Elliott Runburg, Zaiyao Fei +9

Evidence for the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect has been reported in several experimental systems in the form of approximately quantized edge conductance. However, the most fundame…

Magnetic proximity and nonreciprocal current switching in a monolayer WTe2 helical edge

Wenjin Zhao, Zaiyao Fei, Tiancheng Song +8

The integration of diverse electronic phenomena, such as magnetism and nontrivial topology, into a single system is normally studied either by seeking materials that contain both i…

Switching 2D Magnetic States via Pressure Tuning of Layer Stacking

Tiancheng Song, Zaiyao Fei, Matthew Yankowitz +15

The physical properties of two-dimensional van der Waals (2D vdW) crystals depend sensitively on the interlayer coupling, which is intimately connected to the stacking arrangement…

Ferroelectric switching of a two-dimensional metal

Zaiyao Fei, Wenjin Zhao, Tauno A. Palomaki +6

A ferroelectric is a material with a polar structure whose polarity can be reversed by applying an electric field. In metals, the itinerant electrons tend to screen electrostatic f…

Imaging Quantum Spin Hall Edges in Monolayer WTe2

Yanmeng Shi, Joshua Kahn, Ben Niu +9

A two-dimensional (2D) topological insulator (TI) exhibits the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect, in which topologically protected spin-polarized conducting channels exist at the samp…
