We implement an efficient procedure on a quantum processor, leveraging quantum parallelism, to efficiently sample over all disorder realizations. We observe localization without disorder in quantum many-body dynamics in one and two dimensions: perturbations do not diffuse even though both the generator of evolution and the initial states are fully translationally invariant. The disorder strength as well as its density can be readily tuned using the initial state. Furthermore, we demonstrate the versatility of our platform by measuring Renyi entropies. Our method could also be extended to higher moments of the physical observables and disorder learning. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2410.06557v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2410.06557v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 9 October, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2409.17142">arXiv:2409.17142</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2409.17142">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2409.17142">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Strongly Correlated Electrons">cond-mat.str-el</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Lattice">hep-lat</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Visualizing Dynamics of Charges and Strings in (2+1)D Lattice Gauge Theories </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Cochran%2C+T+A">Tyler A.

Studying dynamical properties of emergent phases can be challenging as it requires solving many-body problems that are generally beyond perturbative limits. We investigate the dynamics of local excitations in a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ LGT using a two-dimensional lattice of superconducting qubits. We first construct a simple variational circuit which prepares low-energy states that have a large overlap with the ground state; then we create particles with local gates and simulate their quantum dynamics via a discretized time evolution. As the effective magnetic field is increased, our measurements show signatures of transitioning from deconfined to confined dynamics. For confined excitations, the magnetic field induces a tension in the string connecting them. Our method allows us to experimentally image string dynamics in a (2+1)D LGT from which we uncover two distinct regimes inside the confining phase: for weak confinement the string fluctuates strongly in the transverse direction, while for strong confinement transverse fluctuations are effectively frozen. In addition, we demonstrate a resonance condition at which dynamical string breaking is facilitated. Our LGT implementation on a quantum processor presents a novel set of techniques for investigating emergent particle and string dynamics. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2409.17142v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2409.17142v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 25 September, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> September 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.11252">arXiv:2407.11252</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2407.11252">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Materials Science">cond-mat.mtrl-sci</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optics">physics.optics</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Dynamical Control of Excitons in Atomically Thin Semiconductors </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Peterson%2C+E+L">Eric L.

While much progress has been made towards characterizing and controlling excitons in TMDs, manipulating their properties during the course of their lifetime - a key requirement for many optoelectronic device and information processing modalities - remains an outstanding challenge. Here we combine long-lived interlayer excitons in angle-aligned MoSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ heterostructures with fast electrical control to realize dynamical control schemes, in which exciton properties are not predetermined at the time of excitation but can be dynamically manipulated during their lifetime. Leveraging the out-of-plane exciton dipole moment, we use electric fields to demonstrate dynamical control over the exciton emission wavelength. Moreover, employing a patterned gate geometry, we demonstrate rapid local sample doping and toggling of the radiative decay rate through exciton-charge interactions during the exciton lifetime. Spatially mapping the exciton response reveals charge redistribution, offering a novel probe of electronic transport in twisted TMD heterostructures. Our results establish the feasibility of dynamical exciton control schemes, unlocking new directions for exciton-based information processing and optoelectronic devices, and the realization of excitonic phenomena in TMDs. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2407.11252v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2407.11252v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 July, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 15 July, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> July 2024. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">37 pages, 4 figures in main text, 6 figures in supplemental materials; (v2) corrected funding acknowledgements</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.17385">arXiv:2405.17385</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2405.17385">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2405.17385">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Strongly Correlated Electrons">cond-mat.str-el</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Thermalization and Criticality on an Analog-Digital Quantum Simulator </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

Unlocking the full potential of such systems toward this goal requires flexible initial state preparation, precise time evolution, and extensive probes for final state characterization. We present a quantum simulator comprising 69 superconducting qubits which supports both universal quantum gates and high-fidelity analog evolution, with performance beyond the reach of classical simulation in cross-entropy benchmarking experiments. Emulating a two-dimensional (2D) XY quantum magnet, we leverage a wide range of measurement techniques to study quantum states after ramps from an antiferromagnetic initial state. We observe signatures of the classical Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition, as well as strong deviations from Kibble-Zurek scaling predictions attributed to the interplay between quantum and classical coarsening of the correlated domains. This interpretation is corroborated by injecting variable energy density into the initial state, which enables studying the effects of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) in targeted parts of the eigenspectrum. Finally, we digitally prepare the system in pairwise-entangled dimer states and image the transport of energy and vorticity during thermalization. These results establish the efficacy of superconducting analog-digital quantum processors for preparing states across many-body spectra and unveiling their thermalization dynamics. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2405.17385v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2405.17385v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 8 July, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 27 May, 2024; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> May 2024. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.04792">arXiv:2303.04792</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.04792">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2303.04792">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Statistical Mechanics">cond-mat.stat-mech</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="High Energy Physics - Theory">hep-th</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-023-06505-7">10.1038/s41586-023-06505-7 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Measurement-induced entanglement and teleportation on a noisy quantum processor </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Hoke%2C+J+C">Jesse C.

When integrated in many-body dynamics, measurements can lead to emergent patterns of quantum information in space-time that go beyond established paradigms for characterizing phases, either in or out of equilibrium. On present-day NISQ processors, the experimental realization of this physics is challenging due to noise, hardware limitations, and the stochastic nature of quantum measurement. Here we address each of these experimental challenges and investigate measurement-induced quantum information phases on up to 70 superconducting qubits. By leveraging the interchangeability of space and time, we use a duality mapping, to avoid mid-circuit measurement and access different manifestations of the underlying phases -- from entanglement scaling to measurement-induced teleportation -- in a unified way. We obtain finite-size signatures of a phase transition with a decoding protocol that correlates the experimental measurement record with classical simulation data. The phases display sharply different sensitivity to noise, which we exploit to turn an inherent hardware limitation into a useful diagnostic. Our work demonstrates an approach to realize measurement-induced physics at scales that are at the limits of current NISQ processors. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2303.04792v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2303.04792v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 17 October, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 8 March, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2023. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nature 622, 481-486 (2023) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.10255">arXiv:2210.10255</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2210.10255">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2210.10255">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Other Condensed Matter">cond-mat.other</span> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Non-Abelian braiding of graph vertices in a superconducting processor </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

For all elementary and quasiparticles observed to date - including fermions, bosons, and Abelian anyons - this principle guarantees that the braiding of identical particles leaves the system unchanged. However, in two spatial dimensions, an intriguing possibility exists: braiding of non-Abelian anyons causes rotations in a space of topologically degenerate wavefunctions. Hence, it can change the observables of the system without violating the principle of indistinguishability. Despite the well developed mathematical description of non-Abelian anyons and numerous theoretical proposals, the experimental observation of their exchange statistics has remained elusive for decades. Controllable many-body quantum states generated on quantum processors offer another path for exploring these fundamental phenomena. While efforts on conventional solid-state platforms typically involve Hamiltonian dynamics of quasi-particles, superconducting quantum processors allow for directly manipulating the many-body wavefunction via unitary gates. Building on predictions that stabilizer codes can host projective non-Abelian Ising anyons, we implement a generalized stabilizer code and unitary protocol to create and braid them. This allows us to experimentally verify the fusion rules of the anyons and braid them to realize their statistics. We then study the prospect of employing the anyons for quantum computation and utilize braiding to create an entangled state of anyons encoding three logical qubits. Our work provides new insights about non-Abelian braiding and - through the future inclusion of error correction to achieve topological protection - could open a path toward fault-tolerant quantum computing. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2210.10255v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2210.10255v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 31 May, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 18 October, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2022. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.05254">arXiv:2206.05254</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.05254">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2206.05254">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Other Condensed Matter">cond-mat.other</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-022-05348-y">10.1038/s41586-022-05348-y <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Formation of robust bound states of interacting microwave photons </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Morvan%2C+A">Alexis Morvan</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

The computational challenge in these systems arises when interactions become comparable to other energy scales, which makes the state of each particle depend on all other particles. The lack of general solutions for the 3-body problem and acceptable theory for strongly correlated electrons shows that our understanding of correlated systems fades when the particle number or the interaction strength increases. One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multi-particle bound states. In a ring of 24 superconducting qubits, we develop a high fidelity parameterizable fSim gate that we use to implement the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-1/2 XXZ model, an archetypal model of interaction. By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons. We devise a phase sensitive method for constructing the few-body spectrum of the bound states and extract their pseudo-charge by introducing a synthetic flux. By introducing interactions between the ring and additional qubits, we observe an unexpected resilience of the bound states to integrability breaking. This finding goes against the common wisdom that bound states in non-integrable systems are unstable when their energies overlap with the continuum spectrum. Our work provides experimental evidence for bound states of interacting photons and discovers their stability beyond the integrability limit. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2206.05254v3-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2206.05254v3-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 21 December, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 10 June, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> June 2022. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">7 pages + 15 pages supplements</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nature 612, 240-245 (2022) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2204.11372">arXiv:2204.11372</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2204.11372">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/2204.11372">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Quantum Physics">quant-ph</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Other Condensed Matter">cond-mat.other</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1126/science.abq5769">10.1126/science.abq5769 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Noise-resilient Edge Modes on a Chain of Superconducting Qubits </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Mi%2C+X">Xiao Mi</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Sonner%2C+M">Michael Sonner</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Niu%2C+M+Y">Murphy Yuezhen Niu</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Lee%2C+K+W">Kenneth W.

Leveraging such protection requires testing its robustness against uncontrolled environmental interactions. Using 47 superconducting qubits, we implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $\mathbb{Z}_2$ parity symmetry. Remarkably, we find that any multi-qubit Pauli operator overlapping with the MEMs exhibits a uniform late-time decay rate comparable to single-qubit relaxation rates, irrespective of its size or composition. This characteristic allows us to accurately reconstruct the exponentially localized spatial profiles of the MEMs. Furthermore, the MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism. Our work elucidates the complex interplay between noise and symmetry-protected edge modes in a solid-state environment. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2204.11372v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2204.11372v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 8 December, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 24 April, 2022; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> April 2022. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Science 378, 785 (2022) </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2111.04781">arXiv:2111.04781</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2111.04781">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Materials Science">cond-mat.mtrl-sci</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optics">physics.optics</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-022-29976-0">10.1038/s41467-022-29976-0 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Beam steering at the nanosecond time scale with an atomically thin reflector </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

The realization of programmable, active optical systems with fast, tunable components is among the outstanding challenges in the field. Here, we experimentally demonstrate a few-pixel beam steering device based on electrostatic gate control of excitons in an atomically thin semiconductor with strong light-matter interactions. By combining the high reflectivity of a MoSe2 monolayer with a graphene split-gate geometry, we shape the wavefront phase profile to achieve continuously tunable beam deflection with a range of 10$^\circ$, two-dimensional beam steering, and switching times down to 1.6 nanoseconds. Our approach opens the door for a new class of atomically thin optical systems, such as rapidly switchable beam arrays and quantum metasurfaces operating at their fundamental thickness limit. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2111.04781v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2111.04781v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 July, 2023; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 8 November, 2021; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> November 2021. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2001.01157">arXiv:2001.01157</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/2001.01157">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Materials Science">cond-mat.mtrl-sci</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optics">physics.optics</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41565-020-0728-z">10.1038/s41565-020-0728-z <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Broken mirror symmetry in excitonic response of reconstructed domains in twisted MoSe$_2$/MoSe$_2$ bilayers </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Sung%2C+J">Jiho Sung</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Zhou%2C+Y">You Zhou</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Scuri%2C+G">Giovanni Scuri</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Z%C3%B3lyomi%2C+V">Viktor Z贸lyomi</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

In particular, moir茅 lattices in twisted bilayers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have been shown to lead to exciton trapping, host Mott insulating and superconducting states, and act as unique Hubbard systems whose correlated electronic states can be detected and manipulated optically. Structurally, these twisted heterostructures also feature atomic reconstruction and domain formation. Unfortunately, due to the nanoscale sizes (~10 nm) of typical moir茅 domains, the effects of atomic reconstruction on the electronic and excitonic properties of these heterostructures could not be investigated systematically and have often been ignored. Here, we use near-0$^o$ twist angle MoSe$_2$/MoSe$_2$ bilayers with large rhombohedral AB/BA domains to directly probe excitonic properties of individual domains with far-field optics. We show that this system features broken mirror/inversion symmetry, with the AB and BA domains supporting interlayer excitons with out-of-plane (z) electric dipole moments in opposite directions. The dipole orientation of ground-state $螕$-K interlayer excitons (X$_{I,1}$) can be flipped with electric fields, while higher-energy K-K interlayer excitons (X$_{I,2}$) undergo field-asymmetric hybridization with intralayer K-K excitons (X$_0$). Our study reveals the profound impacts of crystal symmetry on TMD excitons and points to new avenues for realizing topologically nontrivial systems, exotic metasurfaces, collective excitonic phases, and quantum emitter arrays via domain-pattern engineering. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('2001.01157v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('2001.01157v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 4 January, 2020; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2020. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">29 pages, 4 figures in main text, 6 figures in supplementary information</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Nature Nanotechnology 2020 </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.11306">arXiv:1912.11306</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1912.11306">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Materials Science">cond-mat.mtrl-sci</span> <span class="tag is-small is-grey tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Optics">physics.optics</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.124.217403">10.1103/PhysRevLett.124.217403 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Electrically tunable valley dynamics in twisted WSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayers </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Scuri%2C+G">Giovanni Scuri</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

Here, we show that the twist angle can be used to control the spin-valley properties of transition metal dichalcogenide bilayers by changing the momentum alignment of the valleys in the two layers. Specifically, we observe that the interlayer excitons in twisted WSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayers exhibit a high (>60%) degree of circular polarization (DOCP) and long valley lifetimes (>40 ns) at zero electric and magnetic fields. The valley lifetime can be tuned by more than three orders of magnitude via electrostatic doping, enabling switching of the DOCP from ~80% in the n-doped regime to <5% in the p-doped regime.

This is exemplified by periodic variation of the local atomic registry, known as moire patterns, giving rise to superconductivity and ferromagnetism in twisted bilayer graphene and novel exciton states in transition metal dichalcogenides (TMD) heterobilayers. However, the presence of the nanometer-scale moire superlattices is typically deduced indirectly, because conventional imaging techniques, such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), require special sample preparation that is incompatible with most optical and transport measurements. Here, we demonstrate a method that uses a secondary electron microscope to directly image the local stacking order in fully hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) encapsulated, gated vdW heterostructure devices on standard Si-substrates. Using this method, we demonstrate imaging of reconstructed moire patterns in stacked TMDs, ABC/ABA stacking order in graphene multilayers, and AB/BA boundaries in bilayer graphene. Furthermore, we show that the technique is non-destructive, thus unlocking the possibility of directly correlating local stacking order with optical and electronic properties, crucial to the development of vdW heterostructure devices with precisely controlled functionality. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1912.07446v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1912.07446v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 16 December, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2019. </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1912.06955">arXiv:1912.06955</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1912.06955">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1038/s41563-020-00873-5">10.1038/s41563-020-00873-5 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Moir茅 Excitons Correlated with Superlattice Structure in Twisted WSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ Homobilayers </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

However, a major obstacle to fully understanding these systems and harnessing their potential is the limited ability to correlate the local moir茅 structure with optical properties. By using a recently developed scanning electron microscopy technique to image twisted WSe$_2$/WSe$_2$ bilayers, we directly correlate increasing moir茅 periodicity with the emergence of two distinct exciton species. These can be tuned individually through electrostatic gating, and feature different valley coherence properties. Our observations can be understood as resulting from an array of two intralayer exciton species residing in alternating locations in the superlattice, and illuminate the influence of the moir茅 potential on lateral exciton motion. They open up new avenues for controlling exciton arrays in twisted TMDs, with applications in quantum optoelectronics and explorations of novel many body systems. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1912.06955v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1912.06955v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 14 December, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> December 2019. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">25 pages, 4 figures in main text, 4 figures in supplementary materials</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1806.09627">arXiv:1806.09627</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1806.09627">pdf</a>, <a href="https://arxiv.org/format/1806.09627">other</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.166802">10.1103/PhysRevLett.122.166802 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Enhanced photoenergy harvesting and extreme Thomson effect in hydrodynamic electronic systems </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

In the degenerate hydrodynamic regime, the thermal conductivity is reduced and becomes a {\it decreasing} function of the electronic temperature, due to a violation of the Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law. We here show how this peculiar temperature dependence gives rise to new striking TE phenomena. These include an 80-fold increase in TE efficiency compared to the WF regime, dramatic qualitative changes in the steady state temperature profile, and an anomalously large Thomson effect. In graphene, which we pay special attention to here, these effects are further amplified due to a doubling of the thermopower. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1806.09627v2-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1806.09627v2-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 19 January, 2019; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">v1</span> submitted 25 June, 2018; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> June 2018. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">6 pages, 3 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

Real-space nano-images detail how the polaritons are launched in several common arrangements including: light scattering by the edges of the crystal, metallic nanostructures deposited on the surface of hBN crystals, as well as random defects and impurities. Notably, the scanned tip of the near-field microscope is itself an efficient polariton launcher. Our analysis reveals that the scanning tips are superior to other types of emitters we have investigated.

Due to extremely short time and length scales, the measurement and manipulation of electron thermalization in nanoscale devices remains challenging even with the most advanced ultrafast laser techniques. Here, we overcome this challenge by leveraging the atomic thinness of two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) materials in order to introduce a highly tunable electron transfer pathway that directly competes with electron thermalization. We realize this scheme in a graphene-boron nitride-graphene (G-BN-G) vdW heterostructure, through which optically excited carriers are transported from one graphene layer to the other. By applying an interlayer bias voltage or varying the excitation photon energy, interlayer carrier transport can be controlled to occur faster or slower than the intralayer scattering events, thus effectively tuning the electron thermalization pathways in graphene. Our findings, which demonstrate a novel means to probe and directly modulate electron energy transport in nanoscale materials, represent an important step toward designing and implementing novel optoelectronic and energy-harvesting devices with tailored microscopic properties. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1601.02265v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1601.02265v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 10 January, 2016; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> January 2016. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">Accepted to Nature Physics</span> </p> </li> <li class="arxiv-result"> <div class="is-marginless"> <p class="list-title is-inline-block"><a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.4224">arXiv:1410.4224</a> <span> [<a href="https://arxiv.org/pdf/1410.4224">pdf</a>] </span> </p> <div class="tags is-inline-block"> <span class="tag is-small is-link tooltip is-tooltip-top" data-tooltip="Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics">cond-mat.mes-hall</span> </div> <div class="is-inline-block" style="margin-left: 0.5rem"> <div class="tags has-addons"> <span class="tag is-dark is-size-7">doi</span> <span class="tag is-light is-size-7"><a class="" href="https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevB.91.165403">10.1103/PhysRevB.91.165403 <i class="fa fa-external-link" aria-hidden="true"></i></a></span> </div> </div> </div> <p class="title is-5 mathjax"> Observation of interlayer phonon modes in van der Waals heterostructures </p> <p class="authors"> <span class="search-hit">Authors:</span> <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Lui%2C+C+H">Chun Hung Lui</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Ye%2C+Z">Zhipeng Ye</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Ji%2C+C">Chao Ji</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Chiu%2C+K">Kuan-Chang Chiu</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Chou%2C+C">Cheng-Tse Chou</a>, <a href="/search/cond-mat?searchtype=author&query=Andersen%2C+T+I">Trond I.

We discovered Raman features (at 30 ~ 40 cm-1) that arise from the layer-breathing mode (LBM) vibrations between the two incommensurate TMD monolayers in these structures. The LBM Raman intensity correlates strongly with the suppression of photoluminescence that arises from interlayer charge transfer. The LBM is generated only in bilayer areas with direct layer-layer contact and atomically clean interface. Its frequency also evolves systematically with the relative orientation between of the two layers. Our research demonstrates that LBM can serve as a sensitive probe to the interface environment and interlayer interactions in van der Waals materials. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1410.4224v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1410.4224v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 15 October, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> October 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.

A photothermoelectric (PTE) effect governs the photocurrent response in our devices, allowing us to track the hot electron temperature and probe hot electron cooling channels over a wide temperature range (4 K to 300 K). At high temperatures ($T > T^*$), we found that both the peak photocurrent and the hot spot size decreased with temperature, while at low temperatures ($T < T^*$), we found the opposite, namely that the peak photocurrent and the hot spot size increased with temperature. This non-monotonic temperature dependence can be understood as resulting from the competition between two hot electron cooling pathways: (a) (intrinsic) momentum-conserving normal collisions (NC) that dominates at low temperatures and (b) (extrinsic) disorder-assisted supercollisions (SC) that dominates at high temperatures. Gate control in our high quality samples allows us to resolve the two processes in the same device for the first time. The peak temperature $T^*$ depends on carrier density and disorder concentration, thus allowing for an unprecedented way of controlling graphene's photoresponse. <a class="is-size-7" style="white-space: nowrap;" onclick="document.getElementById('1403.8152v1-abstract-full').style.display = 'none'; document.getElementById('1403.8152v1-abstract-short').style.display = 'inline';">△ Less</a> </span> </p> <p class="is-size-7"><span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Submitted</span> 31 March, 2014; <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">originally announced</span> March 2014. </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Comments:</span> <span class="has-text-grey-dark mathjax">5 pages, 4 figures</span> </p> <p class="comments is-size-7"> <span class="has-text-black-bis has-text-weight-semibold">Journal ref:</span> Phys.
