Quantum spin Hall effect in rutile-based oxide multilayers
J. L. Lado, Daniel Guterding, Paolo Barone +2
Dirac points in two-dimensional electronic structures are a source for topological electronic states due to the Berry phase that they sustain. Here we show that two rutile…
Exchange mechanism for electron paramagnetic resonance of individual adatoms
J. L. Lado, A. Ferron, J. Fernandez-Rossier
We propose a new universal mechanism that makes it possible to drive an individual atomic spin using a spin polarized scanning tunnel microscope (STM) with an oscillating electric…
Electronic Transport in Gadolinium Atomic-Size Contacts
B. Olivera, C. Salgado, J. L. Lado +6
We report on the fabrication, transport measurements, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations of atomic size contacts made out of gadolinium (Gd). Gd is known to have loca…
Landau Levels in 2D materials using Wannier Hamiltonians obtained by first principles
J. L. Lado, J. Fernandez-Rossier
We present a method to calculate the Landau levels and the corresponding edge states of two dimensional (2D) crystals using as a starting point their electronic structure as obtain…
Engineering spin exchange in non-bipartite graphene zigzag edges
R. Ortiz, J. L. Lado, M. Melle-Franco +1
The rules that govern spin exchange interaction in pristine graphene nanostructures are constrained by the bipartite character of the lattice, so that the sign of the exchange is d…
Dirac topological insulator in the d manifold of a honeycomb oxide
J. L. Lado, V. Pardo
We show by means of ab initio calculations and tight-binding modeling that an oxide system based on a honeycomb lattice can sustain topologically non-trivial states if a single orb…
