Multifunctional Microstructured Surfaces by Microcontact Printing of Reactive Microgels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reactive poly(N‐vinylcaprolactam‐co‐glycidyl methacrylate) microgels are used as functional inks to create surface‐grafted arrays on glass via microcontact printing. The patterns (10–50 µm widths and spacings) enable stable binding and post‐functionalization with dyes and peptides.

Exploiting Two‐Photon Lithography, Deposition, and Processing to Realize Complex 3D Magnetic Nanostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two‐photon lithography (TPL) enables 3D magnetic nanostructures with unmatched freedom in geometry and material choice. Advances in voxel control, deposition, and functionalization open pathways to artificial spin ices, racetracks, microrobots, and a number of additional technological applications.

Topological invariants in two-dimensional quasicrystals

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
We provide a topological concept to characterize energy gaps in general two-dimensional quasiperiodic systems. We show that every single gap is uniquely characterized by a set of integers, which quantize the area of the momentum space in units of ...

Scaling theory of Z2 topological invariants [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Condensed Matter, 2016
For inversion-symmetric topological insulators and superconductors characterized by Z2 topological invariants, two scaling schemes are proposed to judge topological phase transitions driven by an energy parameter.

Two‐Dimensional Materials as a Multiproperty Sensing Platform

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Various sensing modalities enabled and/or enhanced by two‐dimensional (2D) materials are reviewed. The domains considered for sensing include: 1) optoelectronics, 2) quantum defects, 3) scanning probe microscopy, 4) nanomechanics, and 5) bio‐ and chemosensing.

Measuring topological invariants in small photonic lattices

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics, 2014
We present a robust practical scheme for measuring the topological invariants of non-interacting tight-binding models realized in arrays of coupled photonic cavities.

Measuring topological invariants in disordered discrete-time quantum walks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Quantum walks constitute a versatile platform for simulating transport phenomena on discrete graphs including topological material properties while providing a high control over the relevant parameters at the same time.

Singularities of metrics on Hodge bundles and their topological invariants [PDF]

open access: yesAlgebraic Geometry, 2016
We consider degenerations of complex projective Calabi-Yau varieties and study the singularities of L2, Quillen and BCOV metrics on Hodge and determinant bundles.

TOPOLOGICAL INVARIANTS AND ANYONIC PROPAGATORS [PDF]

open access: yesModern Physics Letters A, 1999
We obtain the Hausdorff dimension, h=2-2s, for particles with fractional spins in the interval, 0≤ s ≤0.5, such that the manifold is characterized by a topological invariant given by, [Formula: see text]. This object is related to fractal properties of the path swept out by fractional spin particles, the spin of these particles, and the genus (number ...

Magnetic and Structural Response Tuned by Coexisting Mn Concentration‐Dependent Phases in MnBi2Te4 Thin Film Grown on GaAs(001) by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The study explores structural and magnetic properties of one of the most recent topological quantum materials (MnBi2Te4). The Mn‐poor structure leads to stacking faults (quintuple layer ‐ QL of Bi2Te3 formation instead of a septuple layer ‐ SL of MnBi2Te4), resulting in a coexistence between weak antiferromagnetism and ferromagnetism.
