Fingerprints of the Strong Interaction between Monolayer MoS2 and Gold

Kavli Affiliate: Hector D. Abruna | First 5 Authors: Matej Velicky, Alvaro Rodriguez, Milan Bousa, Andrey V. Krayev, Martin Vondracek | Summary: Gold-mediated exfoliation of MoS2 has attracted considerable interest in the recent years. A strong interaction between MoS2 and Au facilitates preferential production of centimeter-sized monolayer MoS2 with near-unity yield and provides a heterostructure […]

Strong Circular Dichroism in Single Gyroid Optical Metamaterials

Kavli Affiliate: Ulrich Wiesner | First 5 Authors: Cédric Kilchoer, Narjes Abdollahi, James A. Dolan, Doha Abdelrahman, Matthias Saba | Summary: Over the past two decades, metamaterials have led to an increasing number of biosensing and nanophotonic applications due to the possibility of a careful control of light propagating through subwavelength features. Chiral nanostructures (characterized […]

Extent of Fermi-surface reconstruction in the high-temperature superconductor HgBa$_2$CuO$_{4+δ}$

Kavli Affiliate: Brad J. Ramshaw | First 5 Authors: Mun K. Chan, Ross D. McDonald, Brad J. Ramshaw, Jon B. Betts, Arkady Shekhter | Summary: High magnetic fields have revealed a surprisingly small Fermi-surface in underdoped cuprates, possibly resulting from Fermi-surface reconstruction due to an order parameter that breaks translational symmetry of the crystal lattice. […]

Computational Synthesis of Substrates by Crystal Cleavage

Kavli Affiliate: Kyle Shen | First 5 Authors: Joshua T. Paul, Alice Galdi, Christopher Parzyck, Kyle Shen, Richard G. Hennig | Summary: The discovery of novel substrate materials has been dominated by trial and error, opening the opportunity for a systematic search. To identify stable crystal surfaces, we generate bonding networks for materials from the […]

Effect of Rough Walls on Transport in Mesoscopic $^3$He Films

Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak M. Parpia | First 5 Authors: Priya Sharma, Antonio Corcoles, R. G. Bennett, Jeevak M. Parpia, Brian Cowan | Summary: The interplay of bulk and boundary scattering is explored in a regime where quantum size effects modify mesoscopic transport in a degenerate Fermi liquid film of $^3$He on a rough surface. We […]

Elastic properties of hidden order in URu$_{text2}$Si$_{text2}$ are reproduced by a staggered nematic

Kavli Affiliate: Brad Ramshaw | First 5 Authors: Jaron Kent-Dobias, Michael Matty, Brad Ramshaw, , | Summary: We develop a phenomenological mean field theory describing the hidden order phase in URu$_{text2}$Si$_{text2}$ as a nematic of the $text B_{text{1g}}$ representation staggered along the $c$-axis. Several experimental features are reproduced by this theory: the topology of the […]
