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…
Spectral Visualization of Excitonic Pair Breaking at Individual Impurities in Ta2Pd3Te5
Lianzhi Yang, Deguang Wu, Hanbo Zhang +9
Excitonic insulators host the condensates of bound electron-hole pairs, offering a platform for studying correlated bosonic quantum states. Yet, how macroscopic coherence emerges f…
Visualization of intervalley coherent phase in PtSe2/HOPG heterojunction
Kai Fan, Bohao Li, Wen-Xuan Qiu +7
Intervalley coherent (IVC) phase in graphene systems arises from the coherent superposition of wave functions of opposite valleys, whose direct microscopic visualization provides p…
High-Resolution Spectroscopy of the Intermediate Impurity States near a Quantum Phase Transition
Yao Zhang, Tao Xie, Zhen-Yu Liu +4
The intermediate behavior near a quantum phase transition is crucial for understanding the quantum criticality of various competing phases and their separate origins, yet remains u…
Visualizing uniform lattice-scale pair density wave in single-layer FeSe/SrTiO3 films
Yao Zhang, Lianzhi Yang, Chaofei Liu +2
Typical BCS superconductors are microscopically homogeneous in real space governed by the coherent Cooper pairs with high phase stiffness of superfluid density, which is characteri…
