The physics of quantum materials is dictated by many-body interactions and mathematical
concepts such as symmetry and topology that have transformed our understanding of matter …

Lifted Kramers spin degeneracy (LKSD) has been among the central topics of condensed-
matter physics since the dawn of the band theory of solids,. It underpins established practical …

MXenes, an emerging family of 2D transition metal carbides and nitrides, have shown
promise in various applications, such as energy storage, electromagnetic interference …

Superconductivity involving finite-momentum pairing can lead to spatial-gap and pair-
density modulations, as well as Bogoliubov Fermi states within the superconducting gap …

Strong light fields have created opportunities to tailor novel functionalities of solids,,,–.
Floquet–Bloch states can form under periodic driving of electrons and enable exotic …

A nematic phase breaks the point-group symmetry of the crystal lattice and is known to
emerge in correlated materials. Here we report the observation of an intra-unit-cell nematic …

Topological superconductors are predicted to host exotic Majorana states that obey non-
Abelian statistics and can be used to implement a topological quantum computer. Most of …

Low-dimensional van der Waals materials have been extensively studied as a platform with
which to generate quantum effects. Advancing this research, topological quantum materials …

Topological semimetals in crystals with a chiral structure (which possess a handedness due
to a lack of mirror and inversion symmetries) are expected to display numerous exotic …

We report on the evolution of the thickness-dependent electronic band structure of the two-
dimensional layered-dichalcogenide molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2). Micrometer-scale …
