Ubiquitous nematic Dirac semimetal emerging from interacting quadratic band touching systems

H Lu, K Sun, ZY Meng, BB Chen - Physical Review B, 2024 - APS
Quadratic band touching (QBT) points are widely observed in two-and three-dimensional
(2D and 3D) materials, including bilayer graphene and Luttinger semimetals, and attract …

Tuning topological phase and quantum anomalous Hall effect by interaction in quadratic band touching systems

TS Zeng, W Zhu, D Sheng - npj Quantum Materials, 2018 - nature.com
Interaction-driven topological phases significantly enrich the class of topological materials
and thus are of great importance. Here, we study the phase diagram of interacting spinless …

Quantum anomalous Hall phase stabilized via realistic interactions on a kagome lattice

Y Ren, TS Zeng, W Zhu, DN Sheng - Physical Review B, 2018 - APS
We study the quantum phases of spinless fermions at one-third filling on a kagome lattice
featuring a quadratic band touching Fermi point. In the presence of weak first and second …

Stabilizing topological superfluidity of lattice fermions

J Zhang, S Tewari, VW Scarola - Physical Review A, 2021 - APS
Attractive interaction between spinless fermions in a two-dimensional lattice drives the
formation of a topological superfluid. But the topological phase is dynamically unstable …

Orbital chern insulator and quantum phase diagram of a kagome electron system with half-filled flat bands

Y Ren, HC Jiang, Z Qiao, DN Sheng - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
We study the quantum phase diagram of electrons on kagome lattice with half-filled lowest
flat bands by considering the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interaction J, and short-range …

Photoemission Evidence of a Novel Charge Order in Kagome Metal FeGe

J Jiang, Z Zhao, T Li, P Li, XL Wu, J Yao, Z Chen… - 2024 - researchsquare.com
A charge order has been discovered to emerge deep into the antiferromagnetic phase of the
kagome metal FeGe. However, due to the existence of defects, the as-grown FeGe sample …

Exact diagonalization study of strongly correlated topological quantum states

M Chen - 2019 - vtechworks.lib.vt.edu
A rich variety of phases can exist in quantum systems. For example, the fractional quantum
Hall states have persistent topological characteristics that derive from strong interaction. This …
