Large Tunable Kinetic Inductance in a Twisted Graphene Superconductor

Mitali Banerjee

Twisted graphene based moiré heterostructures host a flat band at the magic angles where the kinetic energy of the charge carriers is quenched and interaction effects dominate. This results in emergent phases such as superconductors and correlated insulato ...

Isolated ballistic non-abelian interface channel

Mitali Banerjee

The topological order of a quantum Hall state is mirrored by the gapless edge modes owing to bulk-edge correspondence. The state at the filling of ν = 5/2, predicted to host non-abelian anyons, supports a variety of edge modes (integer, fractional, neutral ...

Strain induced lifting of the charged exciton degeneracy in monolayer MoS2 on a GaAs nanomembrane

Anna Fontcuberta i Morral, Didem Dede, Valerio Piazza, Mitali Banerjee, Akshay Balgarkashi

Strain is a commonly used tool to tune the optoelectronic properties of semiconductors. It is especially effective for transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), which can withstand extreme strain up to 10%. To date, localised strain fields have been applied ...
