Observation of the fractional quantum spin Hall effect in moiré MoTe2

Kavli Affiliate: Jie Shan | First 5 Authors: Kaifei Kang, Bowen Shen, Yichen Qiu, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi | Summary: Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators are two-dimensional electronic materials that have a bulk band gap like an ordinary insulator but have topologically protected pairs of edge modes of opposite chiralities. To date, experimental studies have […]

Synthesis of thin film infinite-layer nickelates by atomic hydrogen reduction: clarifying the role of the capping layer

Kavli Affiliate: Darrell G. Schlom | First 5 Authors: Christopher T. Parzyck, Vivek Anil, Yi Wu, Berit H. Goodge, Matthew Roddy | Summary: We present an integrated procedure for the synthesis of infinite-layer nickelates using molecular-beam epitaxy with gas-phase reduction by atomic hydrogen. We first discuss challenges in the growth and characterization of perovskite NdNiO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$, […]

Nanofluidic platform for studying the first-order phase transitions in superfluid helium-3

Kavli Affiliate: Jeevak M. Parpia | First 5 Authors: Petri J. Heikkinen, Nathan Eng, Lev V. Levitin, Xavier Rojas, Angadjit Singh | Summary: The symmetry-breaking first-order phase transition between superfluid phases $^3$He-A and $^3$He-B can be triggered extrinsically by ionising radiation or heterogeneous nucleation arising from the details of the sample cell construction. However, the […]
