We theoretically study the topological properties of the tight-binding model on the breathing kagome lattice with antisymmetric spin-orbit coupling (SOC) between nearest neighbors. We show that the system hosts nontrivial topological phases even without se ...
We report broadband spin-wave spectroscopy on kagome artificial spin ice (ASI) made of large arrays of interconnected Ni 80 Fe 20 nanobars. Spectra taken in saturated and disordered states exhibit a series of resonances with characteristic magnetic field d ...
Electron energy bands of crystalline solids generically exhibit degeneracies called band-structure nodes. Here, we introduce non-Abelian topological charges that characterize line nodes inside the momentum space of crystalline metals with space-time invers ...
We demonstrate, both theoretically and experimentally, the concept of nonlinear second-order topological insulators, a class of bulk insulators with quantized Wannier centers and a bulk polarization directly controlled by the level of nonlinearity. We show ...
The topology of the electron wavefunctions in certain band insulators can give rise to novel topological phases. Materials harbouring such topological phases are termed topological insulators (TI). A gapped bulk electronic spectrum, described by a topologi ...
The thesis describes the computational study of structural, electonic and transport properties of monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) in the stable 2H and the metastable 1T' phases. Several aspects have been covered by the study including the ...
The topological degeneracy associated with Majorana edge states has been measured in a spin-1/2 chain of cobalt atoms, thereby opening new avenues in low-dimensional quantum magnetism. ...
The recent discovery of topological phases of condensed matter has recently spawned a quest for their classical analogs in other branches of physics. In wave physics, in particular, several proposals have been put forward to obtain artificial periodic mate ...
Using a specially designed Monte Carlo algorithm with directed loops, we investigate the triangular lattice Ising antiferromagnet with coupling beyond the nearest neighbors. We show that the first-order transition from the stripe state to the paramagnet ca ...
From recent advances in solid state physics, a novel material classification scheme has evolved
which is based on the concept of topology and provides an understanding of different phenomena
ranging from quantum transport to unusual flavors of superconduct ...
