Interferometric schemes: a probe for topological edge states, a tool in weak measurements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the first part of this thesis we propose interferometric schemes to probe the properties of edge states of topological insulators and superconductors.

Thermoresponsive Liquid Crystalline Polymer Coatings Programmed by Field‐Induced Topological Defects for Tunable Optical and Topographical Responses

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Resonant standing waves generate large‐area lattices of liquid‐crystal topological defects that are permanently encoded into polymer coatings by photopolymerization. The preserved director architecture produces thermally reconfigurable surface topographies while maintaining programmable optical functionality, demonstrating a scalable strategy for ...

Symmetry protected topological phases of spin chains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Symmetry protected topological (SPT) phases are characterized by robust boundary features, which do not disappear unless passing through a phase transition.

Schrodinger-Chern-Simons vortex dynamics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We study the motion of vortices in the planar Ginzburg-Landau model with Schrodinger-Chern-Simons dynamics. We compare the moduli space approximation with the results of numerical simulations of the full field theory and find that there is agreement if ...

Anisotropic Phonon Dynamics and Directional Transport in Actinide Van der Waals Semiconductor Uranium Triselenide

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
USe3 is introduced as an actinide van der Waals semiconductor that mirrors the quasi‐one‐dimensional physics of transition‐metal trichalcogenides. Polarization‐resolved Raman spectroscopy on exfoliated flakes maps strong in‐plane phonon anisotropy and strain‐tunable mode shifts.

Embedded Direct Ink Writing of Thermoset and Elastomeric Polymers via Frontal Polymerization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Embedded frontal polymerization direct ink writing (FP‐DIW) combines frontal ring‐opening metathesis polymerization with embedded 3D printing to decouple deposition from curing. A yield‐stress support bath stabilizes low‐viscosity inks, while on‐demand thermal initiation enables controlled front propagation. This approach expands the accessible feature

Protected Chaos in a Topological Lattice

open access: yesAdvanced Science
The erratic nature of chaotic behavior is thought to erode the stability of periodic behavior, including topological oscillations. However, it is discovered that in the presence of chaos, non‐trivial topology not only endures but also provides robust ...

Synergistic Integration of Liquid Crystalline Ordering and Dynamic Networks for Ultrarobust Bismaleimide Vitrimers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A liquid‐crystalline bismaleimide vitrimer integrates local mesogenic organization with exchange‐active ester connectivity, achieving a glass‐transition temperature near 300°C while remaining reprocessable. Stress‐relaxation analysis and temperature‐dependent remolding reveal how segmental mobility, network rearrangement, and structural integrity ...

Spin resonance under topological driving fields

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2017
We study the dynamics of a localized spin-1/2 driven by a time-periodic magnetic field that undergoes a topological transition. Despite the strongly non-adiabatic effects dominating the spin dynamics, we find that the field’s topology appears clearly ...
