which host flat, dispersionless electronic bands. In parallel, theory work has discovered that …

Revisiting flat band superconductivity: Dependence on minimal quantum metric and band touchings

KE Huhtinen, J Herzog-Arbeitman, A Chew… - Physical Review B, 2022 - APS
A central result in superconductivity is that flat bands, though dispersionless, can still host a
nonzero superfluid weight due to quantum geometry. We show that the derivation of the …

Many-body superconductivity in topological flat bands
