Filamentous cyanobacteria can show fascinating examples of nonequilibrium self-
organization, which, however, are not well understood from a physical perspective. We …

Particle–hole symmetry plays an important role in the characterization of topological phases
in solid-state systems. It is found, for example, in free-fermion systems at half filling and it is …

Electrostatically defined quantum dots in bilayer graphene offer a promising platform for spin
qubits with presumably long coherence times due to low spin-orbit coupling and low nuclear …

Quantum devices such as spin qubits have been extensively investigated in electrostatically
confined quantum dots using high-quality semiconductor heterostructures like GaAs and Si …

Pauli blockade mechanisms—whereby carrier transport through quantum dots (QD) is
blocked due to selection rules even when energetically allowed—are a direct manifestation …
