In graphene devices, the electronic drift velocity can easily exceed the speed of sound in the
material at moderate current biases. Under these conditions, the electronic system can …

The quantum kinetic framework provides a versatile method for investigating the dynamical
optical and transport currents of crystalline solids. In this paper, starting from the density …

Electrons in two-dimensional (2D) Dirac materials carry local band geometric quantities,
such as the Berry curvature and orbital magnetic moments, which, combined with electron …

The band structure of a monolayer MoS 2 comprises spin-split subbands, owing to the
mutual presence of broken inversion symmetry and strong spin-orbit coupling. In the …

The recently discovered Van der Waals antiferromagnets have suffered from the lack of a
comprehensive method to study their magnetic properties. Here, we propose an ac intrinsic …

An important prerequisite for quantum communication networks is the transfer and
manipulation of single particles on a chip as well as their interconversion to single photons …

Monolayer 1 T′-WTe 2 has been tuned to be superconducting by electrostatic gating in
recent experiments, which has been explained by soft-mode-phonon-mediated …

Second-order nonlinear optical responses, including photogalvanic effect (PGE) and second
harmonic generation (SHG), are fundamental and important physical phenomena in …

Generating a pure spin current using electrons, which have degrees of freedom beyond
spin, such as electric charge and valley index, presents challenges. In response, we …
