This thesis presents a combined experimental and theoretical study of the classical and quantum magnetization dynamics in single magnetic adatoms and molecules, and on the classical and quantum coherent control thereof. First, a detailed description of the ...
The motivation to search for signatures of superconductivity in Weyl semi-metals and other topological phases lies in their potential for hosting exotic phenomena such as nonzero-momentum pairing or the Majorana fermion, a viable candidate for the ultimate ...
The binary Re1-xMox alloys, known to cover the full range of solid solutions, were successfully synthesized and their crystal structures and physical properties investigated via powder x-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility, and ...
Superconductors with nontrivial band structure topology represent a class of materials with unconventional and potentially useful properties. Recent years have seen much success in creating artificial hybrid structures exhibiting the main characteristics o ...
A magnetic impurity is placed on the tip of a scanning tunnelling microscope, allowing direct tunnelling between two Yu-Shiba-Rusinov bound states. This technique can probe and enhance the impurity state lifetime. There is a limit to the miniaturization of ...
Magnetic impurities on superconductors induce discrete bound levels inside the superconducting gap, known as Yu-Shiba-Rusinov (YSR) states. YSR levels are fully spin polarized such that the tunneling between YSR states depends on their relative spin orient ...
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 ...
Molybdenum ditelluride (MoTe2) is attracting considerable interest since it is the archetypal type-II Weyl semimetal and a candidate for topological superconductivity. We investigate the superconducting phase diagram of two MoTe2 polymorphs using the ab in ...
Robust quantum systems rely on having a protective environment with minimized relaxation channels. Super-conducting gaps play an important role in the design of such environments. The interaction of localized single spins with a conventional superconductor ...
The strong Ising spin-orbit coupling in certain two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides can profoundly affect the superconducting state in few-layer samples. For example, in NbSe2, this effect combines with the reduced dimensionality to stabilize ...
