Phonon screening of excitons in atomically thin semiconductors

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Woncheol Lee, Antonios M. Alvertis, Zhenglu Li, Steven G. Louie, Marina R. Filip | Summary: Atomically thin semiconductors, encompassing both 2D materials and quantum wells, exhibit a pronounced enhancement of excitonic effects due to geometric confinement. Consequently, these materials have become foundational platforms for the exploration […]

Tensionless AdS$_3$/CFT$_2$ and Single Trace $Toverline{T}$

Kavli Affiliate: Savdeep Sethi | First 5 Authors: Andrea Dei, Bob Knighton, Kiarash Naderi, Savdeep Sethi, | Summary: One of the few cases of AdS/CFT where both sides of the duality are under good control relates tensionless $k=1$ strings on AdS$_3$ to a two-dimensional symmetric product CFT. Building on prior observations, we propose an exact […]

Discovery of Dynamical Heterogeneity in a Supercooled Magnetic Monopole Fluid

Kavli Affiliate: J. C. Seamus Davis | First 5 Authors: Jahnatta Dasini, Chaia Carroll, Chun-Chih Hsu, Hiroto Takahashi, Jack Murphy | Summary: Dynamical heterogeneity in which transitory local fluctuations occur in the conformation and dynamics of constituent particles, is essential for evolution of supercooled liquids into the glass state. Yet its microscopic spatiotemporal phenomenology has […]
