Quantum phase transitions beyond the Landau-Ginzburg paradigm and supersymmetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We make connections between studies in the condensed matter literature on quantum phase transitions in square lattice antiferromagnets, and results in the particle theory literature on abelian supersymmetric gauge theories in 2+1 dimensions.

Strain induced band inversion and topological phase transition in methyl-decorated stanene film

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The researches for new quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulators with large bulk energy gap are of much significance for their practical applications at room temperature in electronic devices with low-energy consumption.

Electrochemical determination of tannic acid using graphite electrodes sourced from waste zinc-carbon batteries

open access: yesSensing and Bio-Sensing Research, 2020
A cost-effective and environment-friendly electrochemical sensor based on waste-battery graphite electrodes is developed. The electrodes were extracted from different brands of waste zinc‑carbon batteries and were used as the working electrode in ...

Atomistic insights into highly active reconstructed edges of monolayer 2H-WSe2 photocatalyst

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Systematically study of in-plane intrinsic defects and edge atoms is important to guide the design of low-dimensional photocatalysts. Here the authors investigate photocatalytic CO2 reduction to CH4 over reconstructed edge atoms of monolayer ...

THE CONDENSED MATTER PHYSICS OF QCD [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Important progress in understanding the behavior of hadronic matter at high density has been achieved recently, by adapting the techniques of condensed matter theory. At asymptotic densities, the combination of asymptotic freedom and BCS theory make a rigorous analysis possible. New phases of matter with remarkable properties are predicted.

Knots in soft condensed matter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2015
Understanding the mechanism by which a polypeptide chain thread itself spontaneously to attain a knotted conformation has been a major challenge in the field of protein folding. HP0242 is a homodimeric protein from Helicobacter pylori with intertwined helices to form a unique pseudo-knotted folding topology.

Effect of adhesive interaction on strain stiffening and dissipation in granular gels undergoing yielding

open access: yesCommunications Physics, 2022
Non-linearity and energy dissipation in athermal disordered solids undergoing strain-induced yielding and fluidization remain poorly understood. Here, the authors use oscillatory shear rheology, in-situ imaging, and particle settling experiments to study

Few-Body Systems in Condensed Matter Physics [PDF]

open access: yesFew-body systems, 2019
This review focuses on the studies and computations of few-body systems of electrons and holes in condensed matter physics. We analyze and illustrate the application of a variety of methods for description of two- three- and four-body excitonic complexes
