Towards the understanding of the origin of charge-current-induced spin voltage signals in the topological insulator ${Bi}_{2} {Se}_{3}$

E. K. de Vries, A. M. Kamerbeek, N. Koirala, M. Brahlek, M. Salehi, S. Oh, B. J. van Wees, and T. Banerjee

Phys. Rev. B 92, 201102(R) (2015) - Published 3 November, 2015

Previous electrical transport experiments on thin films of the topological insulator Bi $_{2}$ Se $_{3}$ using ferromagnetic contacts have claimed to see spin-momentum locking based on changes in the measured voltage at the contacts. A careful new transport experiment using a unique device configuration reveals that such a voltage arises from fringe magnetic fields. The findings emphasize the necessity of performing detailed experiments so as to exclude effects such as local Hall fields on the measured signal.

Anharmonic stabilization and band gap renormalization in the perovskite ${CsSnI}_{3}$

Christopher E. Patrick, Karsten W. Jacobsen, and Kristian S. Thygesen

Phys. Rev. B 92, 201205(R) (2015) - Published 20 November, 2015

The perovskite semiconductor CsSnI $_{3}$ has recently attracted much attention due to its potential applications in solar energy generation. In this work, the authors went beyond the standard (quasi)harmonic approximation, and explained the stability of CsSnI $_{3}$ at experimental conditions through anharmonic phonon-phonon interactions between the Cs ions and their iodine cages. They also studied the renormalization of the electronic energies due to vibrations and found an unusual opening of the band gap at high temperatures, which demonstrates the importance of anharmonic temperature effects to the realistic modeling of the X(Sn,Pb)Y $_{3}$ perovskites.

Two-dimensional topological phases and electronic spectrum of ${Bi}_{2} {Se}_{3}$ thin films from $G W$ calculations

Tobias Förster, Peter Krüger, and Michael Rohlfing

Phys. Rev. B 92, 201404(R) (2015) - Published 9 November, 2015

High-quality $G W$ calculations of the quasiparticle band structure in thin films of topological insulator Bi $_{2}$ Se $_{3}$ show that the topological nature of the surface states is $n o t$ the spin-polarized quantum spin Hall state, but the less interesting trivial topology. This is in strong contrast to the expected topology of the surface states of $b u l k$ Bi $_{2}$ Se $_{3}$ and the predictions of density functional theory and parametrized calculations for Bi $_{2}$ Se $_{3}$ thin films, which produce fundamentally less accurate predictions of the band gap than the $G W$ approach.

Tuning the electronic structure of monolayer graphene/ $Mo S_{2}$ van der Waals heterostructures via interlayer twist

Wencan Jin, Po-Chun Yeh, Nader Zaki, Daniel Chenet, Ghidewon Arefe, Yufeng Hao, Alessandro Sala, Tevfik Onur Mentes, Jerry I. Dadap, Andrea Locatelli, James Hone, and Richard M. Osgood, Jr.

Phys. Rev. B 92, 201409(R) (2015) - Published 16 November, 2015

Heterostructures of two-dimensional materials have shown unusual properties and rich physical phenomena. This paper reports on micrometer-scale angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of van der Waals heterostructures of graphene and MoS $_{2}$ monolayers. The authors directly measured the electronic structure of monolayer stacking and its tunability due to the twist-angle between the layers. They show that the electronic states of graphene and MoS $_{2}$ are not hybridized, and the band gap of MoS $_{2}$ can be engineered by changing the orientation of the two layers.

Metallic quantum critical points with finite BCS couplings

S. Raghu, Gonzalo Torroba, and Huajia Wang

Phys. Rev. B 92, 205104 (2015) - Published 3 November, 2015

There are many instances where superconductivity seems to emerge from the condensation of a non-Fermi liquid metal in the vicinity of a quantum critical point. The authors of this paper address this problem by studying a Fermi surface coupled to a critical bosonic order parameter within a large-N approach. The ensuing competition between the tendency for pairing and the destruction of Landau quasiparticles is found to result in a novel non-Fermi liquid fixed point with a finite scale invariant BCS coupling.

Ab initio tight-binding Hamiltonian for transition metal dichalcogenides

Shiang Fang, Rodrick Kuate Defo, Sharmila N. Shirodkar, Simon Lieu, Georgios A. Tritsaris, and Efthimios Kaxiras

Phys. Rev. B 92, 205108 (2015) - Published 5 November, 2015

The modeling of the electronic structure is the key to understanding layered transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) heterostructures. The authors present a full-range tight-binding hamiltonian for TMDCs by Wannier transformation of density functional theory results, which preserves both the orbital character and phase information. The tight-binding hamiltonians is expected to form the basis for further theoretical investigations of many-body physics and simulations for potential applications under external electric or magnetic fields in finite-size nanostructures, in either monolayer or heterostructure forms.

Transversal magnetoresistance in Weyl semimetals

J. Klier, I. V. Gornyi, and A. D. Mirlin

Phys. Rev. B 92, 205113 (2015) - Published 6 November, 2015

The transport properties of three-dimensional Weyl and Dirac semimetals are studied under a transverse magnetic field. The analysis is based on the continuum Dirac/Weyl model in the presence of potential disorder. The results are successfully compared to recent transport experiments in CdAs.

Long distance coupling of resonant exchange qubits

Maximilian Russ and Guido Burkard

Phys. Rev. B 92, 205412 (2015) - Published 9 November, 2015

The authors explore the possibility of long range coupling between two RX qubits, qubits formed out of sets of triple quantum dots. The coupling is electromagnetic in nature and is facilitated by a superconducting strip line. The authors demonstrate that within this setup, they can implement the quantum iSWAP gate with high fidelity.
