Kavli Affiliate: Michael F. Crommie | First 5 Authors: Hongyuan Li, Shaowei Li, Emma C. Regan, Danqing Wang, Wenyu Zhao | Summary: The Wigner crystal state, first predicted by Eugene Wigner in 1934, has fascinated condensed matter physicists for nearly 90 years2-14. Studies of two-dimensional (2D) electron gases first revealed signatures of the Wigner crystal […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Marina R. Filip, Jonah B. Haber, Jeffrey B. Neaton, , | Summary: The ab initio Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) approach, an established method for the study of excitons in materials, is typically solved in a limit where only static screening from electrons is captured. Here, we generalize […]
Kavli Affiliate: Xiang Zhang | First 5 Authors: Sungyong Seo, Sercan O. Arik, Jinsung Yoon, Xiang Zhang, Kihyuk Sohn | Summary: We propose a novel training method that integrates rules into deep learning, in a way the strengths of the rules are controllable at inference. Deep Neural Networks with Controllable Rule Representations (DeepCTRL) incorporates a […]
Kavli Affiliate: David T. Limmer | First 5 Authors: Thomas P. Fay, David T. Limmer, , , | Summary: Here we propose a mechanism by which spin polarization can be generated dynamically in chiral molecular systems undergoing photo-induced electron transfer. The proposed mechanism explains how spin polarization emerges in systems where charge transport is dominated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Alex Zettl | First 5 Authors: Wenyu Zhao, Sihan Zhao, Hongyuan Li, Sheng Wang, Shaoxin Wang | Summary: Fizeau demonstrated in 1850 that the speed of light can be modified when it is propagating in moving media. Can we achieve such control of the light speed efficiently with a fast-moving electron media by […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Shan Wu, Zhijun Xu, Shannon C. Haley, Sophie F. Weber, Arany Acharya | Summary: Layered transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) host a plethora of interesting physical phenomena ranging from charge order to superconductivity. By introducing magnetic ions into 2H-NbS$_2$, the material forms a family of magnetic intercalated […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey B. Neaton | First 5 Authors: Hongrui Zhang, Yu-Tsun Shao, Rui Chen, Xiang Chen, Sandhya Susarla | Summary: The advent of long-range magnetic order in non-centrosymmetric compounds has stimulated interest in the possibility of exotic spin transport phenomena and topologically protected spin textures for applications in next-generation spintronics. This work reports a […]
Kavli Affiliate: Joel E. Moore | First 5 Authors: Kai Klocke, Joel E. Moore, Jason Alicea, Gábor B. Halász, | Summary: Recent theoretical studies inspired by experiments on the Kitaev magnet $alpha$-RuCl$_3$ highlight the nontrivial impact of phonons on the thermal Hall conductivity of chiral topological phases. Here we introduce mixed mesoscopic-macroscopic devices that allow […]
Kavli Affiliate: Graham R. Fleming | First 5 Authors: Eric A. Arsenault, Addison J. Schile, David T. Limmer, Graham R. Fleming, | Summary: We discuss our recent theoretical work on vibronic coupling mechanisms in a model energy transfer system in the context of previous 2DEV experiments on a natural light-harvesting system, light-harvesting complex II (LHCII), […]
