Mechanical analogue of a Majorana bound state
Chun-Wei Chen, Natalia Lera, Rajesh Chaunsali +5
The discovery of topologically non-trivial electronic systems has opened a new age in condensed matter research. From topological insulators to topological superconductors and Weyl…
Valley Hall phases in Kagome lattices
Natalia Lera, Daniel Torrent, Pablo San-Jose +2
We report the finding of the analogous valley Hall effect in phononic systems arising from mirror symmetry breaking, in addition to spatial inversion symmetry breaking. We study to…
TiS3 transistors with tailored morphology and electrical properties
Joshua O. Island, Mariam Barawi, Robert Biele +9
Control over the morphology of TiS3 is demonstrated by synthesizing 1D nanoribbons and 2D nanosheets. The nanosheets can be exfoliated down to a single layer. Through extensive cha…
Charge fluctuations in the unconventional metallic state of Li0.9Mo6O17
J. Merino, J. V. Alvarez
Charge fluctuations in the quasi-one-dimensional material Li0.9Mo6O17 are analyzed based on a multi orbital extended Hubbard model. A charge ordering transition induced by Coulomb…
A model dielectric response function for metallic nanotube ropes
J. V. Alvarez, G. G. N. Angilella
We propose a model dielectric function for ropes of single-walled nanotubes distributed in a glassy graphite host medium. We study the significance of the bosonic charge excitation…
Disordered and Ordered States in a Frustrated Anisotropic Heisenberg Hamiltonian
S. Moukouri, J. V. Alvarez
We use a recently proposed perturbative numerical renormalization group algorithm to investigate ground-state properties of a frustrated three dimensional Heisenberg model on an an…
