Two-dimensional (2D) materials exhibit a wide range of atomic structures, compositions, and
associated versatility of properties. Furthermore, for a given composition, a variety of …

Over the past decade, there have been considerable efforts to observe non-abelian
quasiparticles in novel quantum materials and devices. These efforts are motivated by the …

Frustration in magnetic materials arising from competing exchange interactions can prevent
the system from adopting long-range magnetic order and can instead lead to a diverse …

The magnetism of Kitaev materials has been widely studied, but their charge properties and
the coupling to other degrees of freedom are less known. Here we investigate the charge …

We use a real-space slave-rotor theory of the physics of topological Mott insulators, using
the Kane-Mele-Hubbard model as an example, and show that a topological gap in the …

Understanding phonons in α-RuCl 3 is critical to analyze the controversy around the
observation of the half-integer thermal quantum Hall effect. While many studies have …

We examine the spectroscopic signatures of tunneling through a Kitaev quantum spin liquid
(QSL) barrier in a number of experimentally relevant geometries. We combine contributions …

We study effectively one-dimensional systems that emerge at the edge of a two-dimensional
topologically ordered state, or at the boundary between two topologically ordered states. We …

We describe scanning tunneling spectroscopic signatures of Majorana zero modes (MZMs)
in Kitaev spin liquids. The tunnel conductance is determined by the dynamical spin …

We show that spin-spin correlations in a non-Abelian Kitaev spin liquid are associated with a
characteristic inhomogeneous charge density distribution in the vicinity of Z 2 vortices. This …
