Using first-principles calculations combined with topological quantum chemistry, we investigate bilayer α-In_(2) Se_(3)(2 L-In_(2) Se_(3)) in van der Waals heterostructures with XSe(X = Ga, In, Tl) substrates within space group P 3m1(No. 156). We show that the emergence of ferroelectricity-driven topological phase transitions in these systems is dictated by fundamental symmetry principles rather than material-specific effects. The band bending at the XSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) interface enables topological band inversions, with higher-electron-affinity substrates such as GaSe and TlSe favoring the transition. Remarkably, GaSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) exhibits a reversible transition between topological and trivial insulating phases upon polarization switching, while TlSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) undergoes sequential transitions from a topological insulator to a trivial insulator and eventually to a metallic state. This multistate manipulation highlights a viable route for designing tunable, low-power, multi-functional electronic devices.展开更多

文摘In magnetic topological materials,the interplay between magnetism and nontrivial topology gives rise to exotic quantum transport phenomena,including the anomalous Hall effect and anomalous Nernst effect.Here,we report the observation of intrinsic topological Hall and topological Nernst effects below the Néel temperature(T_(N)=25 K)in the antiferromagnetic(AFM)topological insulator Mn Bi_(2)Te_(4).The maximum of topological Hall resistivity reaches approximately 9μΩ·cm at 2 K,while the topological Nernst signal attains a peak value of 0.1μV/K near 10 K.These anomalous transport behaviors originate from the net Berry curvature induced by the non-collinear spin structure in the canted AFM state.Our results suggest a close connection between the topological thermoelectric effect and non-collinear AFM order in AFM topological insulators.
文摘Two metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),trans-[Co(L)(μ_(2)-H_(2)O)(H_(2)O)2]·2H_(2)O(1)and cis-[Mn(L)(Bipy)](2)(H_(2)L=2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-biphenyldicarboxylic acid,Bipy=4,4'-bipyridine),have been synthesized and character-ized by FTIR,thermogravimetric analysis(TGA),powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction.MOF 1 crystallizes in the triclinic system with a P1 space group and contains two crystallographically different Coions.Each trans-[CoO_(6)]octahedron is connected byμ_(2)-H_(2)O and L^(2-)ligand with a bis(unidentate)coordination mode to produce a 2D sql topological network.MOF 2 crystallizes in the monoclinic system with a C2/c space group.The Mncation adopts a cis-[MnO_(4)N_(2)]octahedron as a 6-connected node and is linked by L^(2-)ligand as a 4-connected node to gener-ate a binodal(4,6)-connected 3D fsc framework.The intermolecular interactions in 1 and 2 have been investigated by 3D Hirshfeld surface analyses and 2D fingerprint plots to reveal that the main interactions are H…H and O…H/H…O contacts in 1,and H…H and C…H/H…C contacts in 2.The TGA indicated that 1 and 2 were stable below 390 and 370℃,respectively.

文摘Higher-order band topology not only enriches our understanding of topological phases but also unveils pioneering lower-dimensional boundary states,which harbors substantial potential for next-generation device applications.The distinct electronic configurations and tunable attributes of two-dimensional materials position them as a quintessential platform for the realization of second-order topological insulators(SOTIs).This article provides an overview of the research progress in SOTIs within the field of two-dimensional electronic materials,focusing on the characterization of higher-order topological properties and the numerous candidate materials proposed in theoretical studies.These endeavors not only enhance our understanding of higher-order topological states but also highlight potential material systems that could be experimentally realized.

文摘The topological phases and edge states of a topological Euler insulator on a triangular lattice is studied.Differently from two-band Chern insulators,a topological Euler insulator is a kind of three-band model,described by the Euler number not the Chern number.The spin textures of a topological Euler insulator in the momentum space is like a Néel-type skyrmion.It is found that the topological edge states exist in the band gap of the topological Euler insulator,and the topological Euler insulator can be transformed into a topological metal without the topological phase transition.

文摘Higher-order topological insulators,which host topologically protected states at boundaries that are at least two dimensions lower than the bulk,are an emerging class of topological materials.They provide great opportunities for exploring novel topological phenomena and fascinating applications.Utilizing a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope,we construct breathing-kagome lattices with Fe adatoms on Ag(111)and investigate their electronic properties.We observe the higher-order topological boundary states in the topological phase but not in the trivial one,which is consistent with the theory.These states are found to be robust against the removal of bulk or edge adatoms.Further,we show the arbitrary positioning of these states either at corner,edge,or bulk sites by slightly modifying their neighbors.Our study not only demonstrates the formation and robustness of the electronic higher-order topological boundary states in real atomic systems but also provides a route for controlling their positions.
文摘We study the topological states(TSs)of all-dielectric honeycomb valley photonic crystals(VPCs).Breaking the space inversion symmetry of the honeycomb lattice by varying the filling ratio of materials for circular ring dielectric columns in the unit cell,which triggers topological phase transitions and thus achieves topological edge states(TESs)and topological corner states(TCSs).The results demonstrate that this structure has efficient photon transmission characteristics and anti-scattering robustness.In particular,we have found that changing the type of edge splicing between VPCs with different topological properties produces a change in the frequency of TCSs,and then based on this phenomenon,we have used a new method of adjusting only the type of edge splicing of the structure to design a novel TCSs combiner that can integrate four TCSs with different frequencies.This work not only expands the variety and number of unexplored TCSs that may exist in a fixed photonic band gap and can be rationalized to be selectively excited in the fixed configuration.Our study provides a feasible pathway for the design of integrated optical devices in which multiple TSs coexist in a single photonic system.

文摘Ferroelectric topological insulators realized in heterostructures of two topologically trivial two-dimensional materials have recently attracted significant interest. Using first-principles calculations combined with topological quantum chemistry, we investigate bilayer α-In_(2) Se_(3)(2 L-In_(2) Se_(3)) in van der Waals heterostructures with XSe(X = Ga, In, Tl) substrates within space group P 3m1(No. 156). We show that the emergence of ferroelectricity-driven topological phase transitions in these systems is dictated by fundamental symmetry principles rather than material-specific effects. The band bending at the XSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) interface enables topological band inversions, with higher-electron-affinity substrates such as GaSe and TlSe favoring the transition. Remarkably, GaSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) exhibits a reversible transition between topological and trivial insulating phases upon polarization switching, while TlSe/2 L-In_(2) Se_(3) undergoes sequential transitions from a topological insulator to a trivial insulator and eventually to a metallic state. This multistate manipulation highlights a viable route for designing tunable, low-power, multi-functional electronic devices.

文摘Topological insulators with localized edge or interface states have been extensively studied,particularly in phononic crystals and related fields;however,their application in seismic metamaterials remains largely unexplored.To address this gap,we designed a topological seismic metamaterial,where the topological interface is formed by joining the ends of two distinct one-dimensional periodic lattices.The first full-scale field experiment confirms the existence of topological interface states,which exhibit pronounced localization characteristics and induce a resonant amplification effect of 7.2 dB on the total energy of seismic surface waves.This study provides the first experimental validation for the implementation of topological principles in the design of seismic metamaterials,enabling novel approaches to high-sensitivity seismic detection and efficient energy localization for wave control.
