Long‐Range Interactions in Topological Superconducting Systems: A Mini Review

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
Long‐range interacting quantum systems are surveyed in this review, with an emphasis on the long‐range topological superconductor and its variants. Long‐range interactions decaying in a power‐law manner can lead to exotic phenomena that finds no analogue in short‐range regimes.

Moiré Folded Helical States at the Interfaces of Heterostructures

open access: yesAdvanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
This manuscript explores a minimal ladder model of a graphene‐topological‐insulator heterostructure where moiré superlattices modulate Rashba spin‐orbit coupling. The study reveals that SOC lifs spin degeneracy, halves spectral periodicity, and induces “helicity fragmentation” across moiré minibands.
