Sub-angstrom many-body localization driven by phononic flat bands in real quantum materials
Yingpeng Qi, Jianmin Yang, Zhihui Zhou +10
Defects, fluctuations, degenerate states and correlated interactions facilitate the emergence of exotic properties in condensed matter systems while also inducing atomic-scale loca…

Electronic excitation of ultrafast collective amorphous-amorphous transitions in glassy phase-change material
Yingpeng Qi, Nianke Chen, Zhihui Zhou +10
The intrinsic nature of glass states and glass transitions remain a fundamental open question in condensed-matter physics and materials science. The key to solving the glass transi…

Structural contribution to light-induced gap suppression in TaNiSe
Zijing Chen, Chenhang Xu, Chendi Xie +13
An excitonic insulator is a material that hosts an exotic ground state, where an energy gap opens due to spontaneous condensation of bound electron-hole pairs. TaNiSe is a…
