Geometry and the Hidden Order of Luttinger Liquids: the Universality of Squeezed Space
H. V. Kruis, I. P. McCulloch, Z. Nussinov +1
We present the case that Luttinger liquids are characterized by a form of hidden order which is similar, but distinct in some crucial regards, to the hidden order characterizing sp…
Duality in 2+1D Quantum Elasticity: superconductivity and Quantum Nematic Order
J. Zaanen, Z. Nussinov, S. I. Mukhin
The generalization of the Nelson-Halperin-Young theory of 2D melting to the dynamical 2+1D quantum case is presented. The bosonic quantum crystal dualizes in superfluids or superco…
Powerlaw optical conductivity with a constant phase angle in high Tc superconductors
D. van der Marel, H. J. A. Molegraaf, J. Zaanen +7
In certain materials with strong electron correlations a quantum phase transition (QPT) at zero temperature can occur, in the proximity of which a quantum critical state of matter…
Orbital ordering in transition-metal compounds: I. The 120-degree model
Marek Biskup, Lincoln Chayes, Zohar Nussinov
We study the classical version of the 120-degree model. This is an attractive nearest-neighbor system in three dimensions with XY (rotor) spins and interaction such that only a par…
Atomic scale elastic textures coupled to electrons in superconductors
K. H. Ahn, Jian-Xin Zhu, Z. Nussinov +4
We present an atomic scale theory of lattice distortions using strain related variables and their constraint equations. Our approach connects constrained atomic length scale variat…
Vibration Mode Induced Shapiro Steps and Backaction in Josephson Junctions
Jian-Xin Zhu, Z. Nussinov, A. V. Balatsky
A model of a superconducting tunnel junction coupled to a mechanical oscillator is studied at zero temperature in the case of linear coupling between the oscillator and tunneling e…
Novel Spin Dynamics in a Josephson Junction
Jian-Xin Zhu, Zohar Nussinov, Alexander Shnirman +1
We address the dynamics of a single spin embedded in the tunneling barrier between two superconductors. As a consequence of pair correlations in the superconducting state, the spin…
Elasticity-Driven Nanoscale Electronic Structure in Superconductors
Jian-Xin Zhu, K. H. Ahn, Z. Nussinov +3
The effects of long-range anisotropic elastic deformations on electronic structure in superconductors are analyzed within the framework of the Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations. Cases…
Noise spectroscopy of a single spin with spin polarized STM
Z. Nussinov, M. F. Crommie, A. V. Balatsky
We show how the noise in a spin polarized STM tunneling current gives valuable spectroscopic information on the temporal susceptibility of a single magnetic atom residing on a non-…
