	Title	Evidence from quantum Monte Carlo simulations of large-gap superfluidity and BCS-BEC crossover in double electron-hole layers			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2018	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	120	Issue	17	Pages	177701
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We report quantum Monte Carlo evidence of the existence of large gap superfluidity in electron-hole double layers over wide density ranges. The superfluid parameters evolve from normal state to BEC with decreasing density, with the BCS state restricted to a tiny range of densities due to the strong screening of Coulomb interactions, which causes the gap to rapidly become large near the onset of superfluidity. The superfluid properties exhibit similarities to ultracold fermions and iron-based superconductors, suggesting an underlying universal behavior of BCS-BEC crossovers in pairing systems.

	Title	Magnetic-field asymmetry of electron wave packet transmission in bent channels capacitively coupled to a metal gate			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2009	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	102	Issue	6	Pages	066807,1-066807,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We study the electron wave packet moving through a bent channel. We demonstrate that the packet transmission probability becomes an asymmetric function of the magnetic field when the electron packet is capacitively coupled to a metal plate. The coupling occurs through a nonlinear potential which translates a different kinetics of the transport for opposite magnetic-field orientations into a different potential felt by the scattered electron.

	Title	Holstein polarons near surfaces			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2009	Publication	Physical Review Letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	103	Issue	17	Pages	176402
	Keywords	A1 Journal article
	Abstract	We study the effects of a nearby surface on the spectral weight of a Holstein polaron, using the inhomogeneous momentum average approximation which is accurate over the entire range of electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling strengths. The broken translational symmetry is taken into account exactly. We find that the e-ph coupling gives rise to a large additional surface potential, with strong retardation effects, which may bind surface states even when they are not normally expected. The surface, therefore, has a significant effect and bulk properties are recovered only very far away from it. These results demonstrate that interpretation in terms of bulk quantities of spectroscopic data sensitive only to a few surface layers is not always appropriate.

	Title	Polaron formation in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling: implications for spintronics			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2009	Publication	Physical Review Letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	102	Issue	18	Pages	186403
	Keywords	A1 Journal article
	Abstract	We study the effects of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling on polaron formation, using a suitable generalization of the momentum average approximation. While previous work on a parabolic band model found that spin-orbit coupling increases the effective mass, we show that the opposite holds for a tight-binding model, unless both the spin-orbit and the electron-phonon couplings are weak. It is thus possible to lower the effective mass of the polaron by increasing the spin-orbit coupling. We also show that when the spin-orbit coupling is large as compared to the phonon energy, the polaron retains only one of the spin-polarized bands in its coherent spectrum. This has major implications for the propagation of spin-polarized currents in such materials, and thus for spintronic applications.

	Title	Giant proximity effect in a phase-fluctuating superconductor			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2008	Publication	Physical Review Letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	101	Issue	9	Pages	097004
	Keywords	A1 Journal article
	Abstract	When a tunneling barrier between two superconductors is formed by a normal material that would be a superconductor in the absence of phase fluctuations, the resulting Josephson effect can undergo an enormous enhancement. We establish this novel proximity effect by a general argument as well as a numerical simulation and argue that it may underlie recent experimental observations of the giant proximity effect between two cuprate superconductors separated by a barrier made of the same material rendered normal by severe underdoping.

	Volume	100	Issue	25	Pages	256405
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron Microscopy for Materials Science (EMAT);
	Abstract	We study the effects of the rippling of a graphene sheet on quasiparticle dispersion. This is achieved using a generalization to the honeycomb lattice of the momentum average approximation, which is accurate for all coupling strengths and at all energies. We show that even though the position of the Dirac points may move and the Fermi speed can be renormalized significantly, quasiparticles with very long lifetimes survive near the Dirac points even for very strong couplings.

	Abstract	A first principles study of La(2-2x)Sr(1+2x)Mn(2)O(7) compounds for doping levels 0.3 <= x <= 0.5 shows that the low energy electronic structure of the majority spin carriers is determined by strong momentum-dependent interactions between the Mn e(g) d(x)(2)-y(2) and d(3z)(2)-r(2) orbitals, which, in addition to an x-dependent Jahn-Teller distortion, differ in the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases. The Fermi surface exhibits nesting behavior that is reflected by peaks in the static susceptibility, whose positions as a function of momentum have a nontrivial dependence on x.

	Title	Coherent three-level mixing in an electronic quantum dot			Type	A1 Journal article

	Volume	102	Issue	2	Pages	026808,1-026808,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We observe magnetic-field-induced level mixing and quantum superposition phenomena between three approaching single-particle states in a quantum dot probed via the ground state of an adjacent quantum dot by single-electron resonant tunneling. The mixing is attributed to anisotropy and anharmonicity in realistic dot confining potentials. The pronounced anticrossing and transfer of strengths (both enhancement and suppression) between resonances can be understood with a simple coherent level mixing model. Superposition can lead to the formation of a dark state by complete cancellation of an otherwise strong resonance, an effect resembling coherent population trapping in a three-level-system of quantum and atom optics.

	Volume	102	Issue	19	Pages	197003,1-197003,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	The discrete shell structure of vortex matter strongly influences the flux dynamics in mesoscopic superconducting Corbino disks. While the dynamical behavior is well understood in large and in very small disks, in the intermediate-size regime it occurs to be much more complex and unusual, due to (in)commensurability between the vortex shells. We demonstrate unconventional vortex dynamics (inversion of shell velocities with respect to the gradient driving force) and angular melting (propagating from the boundary where the shear stress is minimum, towards the center) in mesoscopic Corbino disks.

	Title	Local current injection into mesoscopic superconductors for the manipulation of quantum states			Type	A1 Journal article

	Volume	103	Issue	21	Pages	217003-217003,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We perform strategic current injection in a small mesoscopic superconductor and control the (non)equilibrium quantum states in an applied homogeneous magnetic field. In doing so, we realize a current-driven splitting of multiquanta vortices, current-induced transitions between states with different angular momenta, and current-controlled switching between otherwise degenerate quantum states. These fundamental phenomena form the basis for the electronic and logic applications discussed, and are confirmed in both theoretical simulations and multiple-small-tunnel-junction transport measurements.

	Title	Confinement effects on intermediate-state flux patterns in mesoscopic type-I superconductors			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2009	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	103	Issue	26	Pages	267002,1-267002,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	Intermediate-state flux structures in mesoscopic type-I superconductors are studied within the Ginzburg-Landau theory. In addition to well-established tubular and laminar structures, the strong confinement leads to the formation of (i) a phase of singly quantized vortices, which is typical for type-II superconductors and (ii) a ring of a normal domain at equilibrium. The stability region and the formation process of these intermediate-state structures are strongly influenced by the geometry of the sample.

	Title	Formation of stripelike flux patterns obtained by freezing kinematic vortices in a superconducting Pb film			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	104	Issue	1	Pages
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We demonstrate experimentally and theoretically that the dissipative state of superconducting samples with a periodic array of holes at high current densities consists of flux rivers resulting from a short-range attractive interaction between vortices. This dynamically induced vortex-vortex attraction results from the migration of quasiparticles out of the vortex core (kinematic vortices). We have directly visualized the formation of vortex chains by scanning Hall probe microscopy after freezing the dynamic state by a field cooling procedure at a constant bias current. Similar experiments carried out in a sample without holes show no hint of flux river formation. We shed light on this nonequilibrium phenomena modeled by time-dependent Ginzburg-Landau simulations.

	Title	Bulk magnetic order in a two-dimensional Ni¹⁺/Ni²⁺ (d⁹/d⁸) nickelate, isoelectronic with superconducting cuprates			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	104	Issue	20	Pages	206403
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	The Ni(1+)/Ni(2+) states of nickelates have the identical (3d(9)/3d(8)) electronic configuration as Cu(2+)/Cu(3+) in the high temperature superconducting cuprates, and are expected to show interesting properties. An intriguing question is whether mimicking the electronic and structural features of cuprates would also result in superconductivity in nickelates. Here we report experimental evidence for a bulklike magnetic transition in La(4)Ni(3)O(8) at 105 K. Density functional theory calculations relate the transition to a spin density wave nesting instability of the Fermi surface.

	Title	Experimental observation of single-file water filling of thin single-wall carbon nanotubes down to chiral index (5,3)			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	104	Issue	20	Pages	207401,1-207401,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Particle Physics Group; Nanostructured and organic optical and electronic materials (NANOrOPT); Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	Single-file transport of water into carbon nanotubes is experimentally demonstrated for the first time through the splitting of the radial breathing mode (RBM) vibration in Raman spectra of bile salt solubilized tubes when both empty (closed) and water-filled (open-ended) tubes are present. D2O filling is observed for a wide range of diameters, d, down to very thin tubes [e.g., (5,3) tube, d=0.548 nm] for which only a single water molecule fits in the cross section of the internal nanotube channel. The shift in RBM frequency upon filling is found to display a very complex dependence on nanotube diameter and chirality, in support of a different yet well-defined ordering and orientation of water molecules at room temperature. Large shifts of the electronic transitions are also observed.

	Title	Origin of predominance of cementite among iron carbides in steel at elevated temperature			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	105	Issue	5	Pages	4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	A long-standing challenge in physics is to understand why cementite is the predominant carbide in steel. Here we show that the prevalent formation of cementite can be explained only by considering its stability at elevated temperature. A systematic highly accurate quantum mechanical study was conducted on the stability of binary iron carbides. The calculations show that all the iron carbides are unstable relative to the elemental solids, -Fe and graphite. Apart from a cubic Fe23C6 phase, the energetically most favorable carbides exhibit hexagonal close-packed Fe sublattices. Finite-temperature analysis showed that contributions from lattice vibration and anomalous Curie-Weis magnetic ordering, rather than from the conventional lattice mismatch with the matrix, are the origin of the predominance of cementite during steel fabrication processes.

	Title	Efficient numerical approach to inhomogeneous superconductivity: the Chebyshev-Bogoliubov-de Gennes method			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2010	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	105	Issue	16	Pages	167006,1-167006,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We propose a highly efficient numerical method to describe inhomogeneous superconductivity by using the kernel polynomial method in order to calculate the Greens functions of a superconductor. Broken translational invariance of any type (impurities, surfaces, or magnetic fields) can be easily incorporated. We show that limitations due to system size can be easily circumvented and therefore this method opens the way for the study of scenarios and/or geometries that were unaccessible before. The proposed method is highly efficient and amenable to large scale parallel computation. Although we only use it in the context of superconductivity, it is applicable to other inhomogeneous mean-field theories.

	Title	Extended Ginzburg-Landau formalism for two-band superconductors			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2011	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	106	Issue	4	Pages	047005-047005,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	Recent observation of unusual vortex patterns in MgB2 single crystals raised speculations about possible type-1.5 superconductivity in two-band materials, mixing the properties of both type-I and type-II superconductors. However, the strict application of the standard two-band Ginzburg-Landau (GL) theory results in simply proportional order parameters of the two bandsand does not support the type-1.5 behavior. Here we derive the extended GL formalism (accounting all terms of the next order over the small τ=1-T/Tc parameter) for a two-band clean s-wave superconductor and show that the two condensates generally have different spatial scales, with the difference disappearing only in the limit T→Tc. The extended version of the two-band GL formalism improves the validity of GL theory below Tc and suggests revisiting the earlier calculations based on the standard model.

	Title	Valley-dependent brewster angles and Goos-Hänchen effect in strained graphene			Type	A1 Journal article

	Volume	106	Issue	17	Pages	176802,1-176802,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	We demonstrate theoretically how local strains in graphene can be tailored to generate a valley-polarized current. By suitable engineering of local strain profiles, we find that electrons in opposite valleys (K or K′) show different Brewster-like angles and Goos-Hänchen shifts, exhibiting a close analogy with light propagating behavior. In a strain-induced waveguide, electrons in K and K′ valleys have different group velocities, which can be used to construct a valley filter in graphene without the need for any external fields.

	Title	Formation of multiple-flux-quantum vortices in mesoscopic superconductors from simulations of calorimetric, magnetic, and transport properties			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2011	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	107	Issue	5	Pages	057002,1-057002,4
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	Because of strong flux confinement in mesoscopic superconductors, a giant vortex may appear in the ground state of the system in an applied magnetic field. This multiquanta vortex can then split into individual vortices (and vice versa) as a function of, e.g., applied current, magnetic field, or temperature. Here we show that such transitions can be identified by calorimetry, as the formation or splitting of a giant vortex results in a clear jump in measured heat capacity versus external drive. We attribute this phenomenon to an abrupt change in the density of states of the quasiparticle excitations in the vortex core(s), and further link it to a sharp change of the magnetic susceptibility at the transitionproving that the formation of a giant vortex can also be detected by magnetometry.

	Title	2D atomic mapping of oxidation states in transition metal oxides by scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy-loss spectroscopy			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2011	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	107	Issue	10	Pages	107602
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Electron microscopy for materials research (EMAT)
	Abstract	Using a combination of high-angle annular dark-field scanning transmission electron microscopy and atomically resolved electron energy-loss spectroscopy in an aberration-corrected transmission electron microscope we demonstrate the possibility of 2D atom by atom valence mapping in the mixed valence compound Mn3O4. The Mn L2,3 energy-loss near-edge structures from Mn2+ and Mn3+ cation sites are similar to those of MnO and Mn2O3 references. Comparison with simulations shows that even though a local interpretation is valid here, intermixing of the inelastic signal plays a significant role. This type of experiment should be applicable to challenging topics in materials science, such as the investigation of charge ordering or single atom column oxidation states in, e.g., dislocations.

	Title	Rectification by an imprinted phase in a Josephson junction			Type	A1 Journal article
	Year	2011	Publication	Physical review letters	Abbreviated Journal	Phys Rev Lett
	Volume	107	Issue	17	Pages	177008-177008,5
	Keywords	A1 Journal article; Condensed Matter Theory (CMT)
	Abstract	A Josephson phase shift can be induced in a Josephson junction by a strategically nearby pinned Abrikosov vortex (AV). For an asymmetric distribution of an imprinted phase along the junction (controlled by the position of the AV) such a simple system is capable of rectification of ac current in a broad and tunable frequency range. The resulting rectified voltage is a consequence of the directed motion of a Josephson antivortex which forms a pair with the AV when at local equilibrium. The proposed realization of the ratchet potential by an imprinted phase is more efficient than the asymmetric geometry of the junction itself, is easily realizable experimentally, and provides rectification even in the absence of an applied magnetic field.
