AbstractLinearly dispersive gapless quasiparticles can appear at general momentum points or on high-symmetry momentum lines of superconductors because of topological reasons such as K theory or symmetry indicators theory. However, the zero modes associated with these quasiparticles are generally “accidental” from symmetry point of view. In this paper, we apply projective representation (rep) ...

AbstractThe structure and dynamics of ferroelectric domain walls are essential for polarization switching in ferroelectrics, which remains relatively unexplored in two-dimensional ferroelectric α-In2Se3. Interlayer interactions engineering via selecting the stacking order in two-dimensional materials allows modulation of ferroelectric properties. Here, we report stacking-dependent ferroelectri...

AbstractScanning tunneling microscopy (STM) vibronic spectroscopy, which has provided submolecular insights into electron-vibration (vibronic) coupling, faces challenges when probing the pivotal low-frequency vibronic excitations. Because of eigenstate broadening on solid substrates, resolving low-frequency vibronic states demands strong decoupling. This work designs a type II band alignment in...

AbstractRealizing magnetic skyrmions in two-dimensional (2D) van der Waals (vdW) ferromagnets offers unparalleled prospects for future spintronic applications. The room-temperature ferromagnet Fe3GaTe2 provides an ideal platform for tailoring these magnetic solitons. Here, skyrmions of distinct topological charges are artificially introduced and engineered by using magnetic force microscopy (MF...
