The Future of Computing for Materials Science Challenges
Phalgun Lolur, Richard P. Padbury, George H. Booth +10
Materials discovery increasingly relies on the coordinated use of theory, computation, experiment, data-driven methods, and emerging quantum technologies, yet the full potential of…
Barrier transmission of Dirac-like pseudospin-one particles
D. F. Urban, D. Bercioux, M. Wimmer +1
We address the problem of barrier tunneling in the two-dimensional T_3 lattice (dice lattice). In particular we focus on the low-energy, long-wavelength approximation for the Hamil…
Topological Phases for Fermionic Cold Atoms on the Lieb Lattice
N. Goldman, D. F. Urban, D. Bercioux
We investigate the properties of the Lieb lattice, i.e a face-centered square lattice, subjected to external gauge fields. We show that an Abelian gauge field leads to a peculiar q…
Topology-induced phase transitions in quantum spin Hall lattices
D. Bercioux, N. Goldman, D. F. Urban
Physical phenomena driven by topological properties, such as the quantum Hall effect, have the appealing feature to be robust with respect to external perturbations. Lately, a new…
The Nanoscale Free-Electron Model
D. F. Urban, J. Bürki, C. A. Stafford +1
A brief review of the nanoscale free-electron model of metal nanowires is presented. This continuum description of metal nanostructures allows for a unified treatment of cohesive a…
Massless Dirac-Weyl Fermions in a T_3 Optical Lattice
D. Bercioux, D. F. Urban, H. Grabert +1
We propose an experimental setup for the observation of quasi-relativistic massless Fermions. It is based on a T_3 optical lattice, realized by three pairs of counter-propagating l…
