Fractional Josephson Effect: A Missing Step Is A Key Step
Fan Zhang, Wei Pan
Physicists are searching for superconducting materials that can host Majoranas. New evidence for these elusive particles is provided by missing Shapiro steps in a Josephson effect…
Topological negative refraction of surface acoustic waves in a Weyl phononic crystal
Hailong He, Chunyin Qiu, Liping Ye +5
Reflection and refraction occur at interface between two different media. These two fundamental phenomena form the basis of fabricating various wave components. Specifically, refra…
Observation of acoustic Landau quantization and quantum-Hall-like edge states
Xinhua Wen, Chunyin Qiu, Yajuan Qi +4
Many intriguing phenomena occur for electrons under strong magnetic fields. Recently, it was proposed that an appropriate strain texture in graphene can induce a synthetic gauge fi…
Intrinsic valley Hall transport in atomically thin MoS2
Zefei Wu, Benjamin T. Zhou, Gui-Bin Liu +10
Electrons hopping in two-dimensional honeycomb lattices possess a valley degree of freedom in addition to charge and spin. In the absence of inversion symmetry, these systems were…
Flavor Symmetry and Ferroelectric Nematics in Transition Metal Dichalcogenides
Patrick Cheung, Zhi-qiang Bao, Fan Zhang
Recent magneto-transport experiments have provided compelling evidence for the presence of an energetically isolated threefold Q-valley degeneracy in few-layer transition metal dic…
Topological valleytronics: Brought to light
Fan Zhang
The topological valley Hall effect was predicted as a consequence of the bulk topology of electronic systems. Now it has been observed in photonic crystals, showing that both topol…
High-Temperature Majorana Corner States
Qiyue Wang, Cheng-Cheng Liu, Yuan-Ming Lu +1
Majorana bound states often occur at the end of 1D topological superconductor or at the Josephson junction mediated by a helical edge state. Validated by a new bulk invariant a…
Probing Landau levels of strongly interacting massive Dirac electrons in layer-polarized MoS
Jiangxiazi Lin, Tianyi Han, Benjamin A. Piot +10
Monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are recently emerged 2D electronic systems with various novel properties, such as spin-valley locking, circular dichroism, valley Hall ef…
Valley Topological Phases in Bilayer Sonic Crystals
Jiuyang Lu, Chunyin Qiu, Weiyin Deng +5
Recently, the topological physics in artificial crystals for classical waves has become an emerging research area. In this Letter, we propose a unique bilayer design of sonic cryst…
