Kavli Affiliate: Itai Cohen | First 5 Authors: Teaya Yang, David Hathcock, Yuchao Chen, Paul McEuen, James P. Sethna | Summary: We propose a novel design paradigm for multistate machines where transitions from one state to another are organized by bifurcations of multiple equilibria of the energy landscape describing the collective interactions of the machine […]

Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: Ziming Shao, Noah Schnitzer, Jacob Ruf, Oleg Y. Gorobtsov, Cheng Dai | Summary: Exploiting the emerging nanoscale periodicities in epitaxial, single-crystal thin films is an exciting direction in quantum materials science: confinement and periodic distortions induce novel properties. The structural motifs of interest are ferroelastic, ferroelectric, […]

Kavli Affiliate: Nicholas L. Abbott | First 5 Authors: Xingzhou Tang, Ali Mozaffari, Noe Atzin, Soumik Das, Nicholas L. Abbott | Summary: Solitons in nematic liquid crystals offer intriguing opportunities for transport and sensing in microfluidic systems. Little is known about the elementary conditions that are needed to create solitons in nematic materials. In this […]
Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Wenjin Zhao, Bowen Shen, Zui Tao, Zhongdong Han, Kaifei Kang | Summary: The Kondo lattice, describing a matrix of local magnetic moments coupled via spin-exchange interactions to itinerant conduction electrons, is a prototype of strongly correlated quantum matter. Traditionally, Kondo lattices are realized in intermetallic compounds containing […]
Kavli Affiliate: Lena F. Kourkoutis | First 5 Authors: James L Hart, Lopa Bhatt, Yanbing Zhu, Myung-Geun Han, Elisabeth Bianco | Summary: The layer stacking order in 2D materials strongly affects functional properties and holds promise for next generation electronic devices. In bulk, octahedral MoTe$_2$ possesses two stacking arrangements, the Weyl semimetal T$_d$ phase, and […]
Kavli Affiliate: J. C. Seamus Davis | First 5 Authors: Weijiong Chen, Clara Neerup Breiø, Freek Massee, M. P. Allan, C. Petrovic | Summary: Visualizing atomic-orbital degrees of freedom is a frontier challenge in scanned microscopy. Some types of orbital order are virtually imperceptible to normal scattering techniques because they do not reduce the overall […]
