Imaging Intermediate Melting Phases of Dual Magnetic-Field-Stabilized Wigner Crystals
Chaofei Liu, Jianwang Zhou, Wenao Liao +7
The competition between Coulomb repulsion and kinetic energy in correlated systems can allow electrons to crystallize into Wigner solids. Despite researches across diverse two-dime…

Role of Phase Fluctuation in Dynamic Competition Between Charge Order and Superconductivity in Cuprates
Mingu Kang, Pavel E. Dolgirev, Chao C. Zhang +9
Phase fluctuations are a key factor distinguishing nonthermal (ultrafast) and thermal phase transitions. Charge order in cuprates is characterized by short-range coherence while co…
