  1. 1. Robust Platforms for Superconductivity : Disorder Robustness and Topological Density of States Peaks

    Författare :Tomas Löthman; Annica M. Black-Schaffer; Carsten Honerkamp; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Superconductivity; Odd-Frequency Superconductivity; Nematic superconductivity; Topological Phases of Matter; Flat bands; Van Hove Singularity; Graphene; Twisted Bilayer Graphene; Rhombohedral graphite; Physics with spec. in Atomic; Molecular and Condensed Matter Physics; Fysik med inriktning mot atom- molekyl- och kondenserande materiens fysik;

    Sammanfattning : We explore the connection between robust material platforms for superconductivity and the modern condensed matter physics paradigms of two-dimensional materials, topological states of matter, and odd-frequency superconductivity. Specifically, the recent discoveries of gapless topological matter and truly two-dimensional materials with graphene have greatly expanded the class of materials for which topology produces large, robust, even singular, density of states (DOS) peaks in the electronic structure that in turn are highly susceptible to new ordered states of matter, including superconductivity.

  2. 2. Topological Phase Transitions in Magnetic Nanostructures of Dirac Materials

    Författare :Nezhat Pournaghavi; Carlo M. Canali; Michael Flatté; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Topological insulators; Magnetic materials; Quantum anomalous Hall effect; Topological magneto electric effect; Dirac semimetals; Weyl semimetals; Condensed Matter Physics; Kondenserade materians fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past two decades, the discovery of topological Dirac materials, such as topological insulators and semimetals, has defined a new paradigm in condensed matter physics and established new platforms for realizing spin electronic devices and quantum computing. The novel quantum properties of these materials, which are mainly due to the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling, are invariant under topological transformations, making them more resilient to structural disorder, electromagnetic and thermal fluctuations in comparison to the conventional silicon-based materials.

  3. 3. Anomaly and Topology : On the axial anomaly, domain wall dynamics, and local topological markers in quantum matter

    Författare :Julia D. Hannukainen; Jens H. Bardarson; Adolfo G. Grushin; Teemu Ojanen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chiral anomaly; axial anomaly; topological phases of matter; Weyl semimetals; magnetic domain walls; local topological markers;

    Sammanfattning : Chiral anomalies and topological phases of matter form the basis of the research presented in this dissertation. The chiral anomaly is considered both in the context of magnetic Weyl semimetals and in the context of non-Hermitian Dirac actions. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Solvable Topological Boundaries

    Författare :Flore Kiki Kunst; Emil Bergholtz; Henning Schomerus; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The hallmark of topological phases of matter is the presence of robust boundary states. In this dissertation, a formalism is developed with which analytical solutions for these states can be straightforwardly obtained by making use of destructive interference, which is naturally present in a large family of lattice models.

  5. 5. Knots and Transport in Topological Matter

    Författare :Marcus Stålhammar; Emil Johansson Bergholtz; Christiane Morais Smith; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transport; Knots; Topology; non-Hermiticity; Weyl semimetals; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Topology has manifestations in physics ranging from the field of condensed matter to photonics. This dissertation provides a two-fold study on the impact of topology in Hermitian and non-Hermitian band structures. LÄS MER
