Engineering two-dimensional electron gases at the (001) and (101) surfaces of ${TiO}_{2}$ anatase using light

T. C. Rödel, F. Fortuna, F. Bertran, M. Gabay, M. J. Rozenberg, A. F. Santander-Syro, and P. Le Fèvre

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041106(R) (2015) - Published 8 July, 2015

Angle-resolved photoemission shows the existence of two-dimensional metallic states of confined itinerant electrons at the (001) and (101) surfaces of insulating TiO $_{2}$ anatase. This is a material of much current interest, as a photocatalyst or a transparent conducting oxide, for instance. The 2D electron gases come from the formation of oxygen vacancies in the near-surface region, created by exposure to ultraviolet irradiation. The results here open a route to nano-engineering these confined electronic states using ultraviolet light, controlling their metallic or insulating nature.

Intact quasiparticles at an unconventional quantum critical point

M. L. Sutherland, E. C. T. O'Farrell, W. H. Toews, J. Dunn, K. Kuga, S. Nakatsuji, Y. Machida, K. Izawa, and R. W. Hill

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041114(R) (2015) - Published 20 July, 2015

Measurements of thermal and electrical transport at low temperature near an unconventional quantum critical point in $β$ -YbAlB $_{4}$ reveal that the Wiedemann-Franz law continues to be obeyed and Landau quasiparticles remain intact.

Generic fixed point model for pseudo-spin- $\frac{1}{2}$ quantum dots in nonequilibrium: Spin-valve systems with compensating spin polarizations

Stefan Göttel, Frank Reininghaus, and Herbert Schoeller

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041103(R) (2015) - Published 6 July, 2015

The authors study a generic quantum dot close to the particle-hole symmetric point. By first mapping the model onto an equivalent two-level system coupled to spin-polarized leads, they are able to study the system as a function of magnetic field at large bias voltage. Doing so they are able to identify a non-equilibrium fixed point of the model.

Anisotropic magnetotransport and exotic longitudinal linear magnetoresistance in $WT e_{2}$ crystals

Yanfei Zhao, Haiwen Liu, Jiaqiang Yan, Wei An, Jun Liu, Xi Zhang, Huichao Wang, Yi Liu, Hua Jiang, Qing Li, Yong Wang, Xin-Zheng Li, David Mandrus, X. C. Xie, Minghu Pan, and Jian Wang

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041104(R) (2015) - Published 6 July, 2015

The tungsten ditelluride WTe $_{2}$ semimetal is known for if its extremely large magnetoresistance. The authors measure the angular dependence of this magnetoresistance and find that when the magnetic field is applied parallel to the tungsten chains (along the $a$ axis), the very large magnetoresistance (as high as 1200% at 15 T and 2 K) no longer exhibits a conventional quadratic but rather a linear field dependence.

Topological states in a microscopic model of interacting fermions

Nicolai Lang and Hans Peter Büchler

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041118(R) (2015) - Published 29 July, 2015

Motivated by the question of topological classification in interacting models the authors study an exactly solvable two-leg ladder model of spinless fermions with attractive interactions and find its ground states and correlation functions. They also demonstrate the appearance of topologically protected edge states and derive their braiding properties on a microscopic level.

Large magnetoresistance over an extended temperature regime in monophosphides of tantalum and niobium

The authors report observation of extremely large magnetoresistance in two compounds which were recently suggested as candidates for Weyl semimetals.

Beyond double-resonant Raman scattering: Ultraviolet Raman spectroscopy on graphene, graphite, and carbon nanotubes

Christoph Tyborski, Felix Herziger, Roland Gillen, and Janina Maultzsch

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041401(R) (2015) - Published 1 July, 2015

The study of Raman scattering processes in the ultraviolet excitation energy range is not common in carbon-based materials. This paper reports that the widely known double-resonant Raman scattering, which is dominant in the visible excitation energy in these materials, is suppressed in the UV range. This is an important development because one can now measure two-phonon densities of states that were not accessible before. The results demonstrate the high potential of UV Raman spectroscopy for research on graphitic nanocarbons.

Electronic analog of chiral metamaterial: Helicity-resolved filtering and focusing of Dirac fermions in thin films of topological materials

Lu Zhao, Jianfeng Wang, Junwei Liu, Yong Xu, Bing-Lin Gu, Qi-Kun Xue, and Wenhui Duan

Phys. Rev. B 92, 041408(R) (2015) - Published 21 July, 2015

Inspired by helicity dependent optical phenomena in chiral metamaterials the authors exploit the idea of helicity degree of freedom of Dirac fermions. They perform a first-principles study of SnTe films and show that giant helicity splitting in the band structures can be induced under moderate electric field. They suggest using helicity as an extra degree of freedom for helicity-resolved filtering and focusing of Dirac fermions.

Excitons in ultrathin organic-inorganic perovskite crystals

Omer Yaffe, Alexey Chernikov, Zachariah M. Norman, Yu Zhong, Ajanthkrishna Velauthapillai, Arend van der Zande, Jonathan S. Owen, and Tony F. Heinz

Phys. Rev. B 92, 045414 (2015) - Published 14 July, 2015

The new family of layered organic-inorganic perovskite crystals (OIPCs) is a unique addition to the set of available 2D materials. It is a crystalline inorganic solid that is surrounded by well-ordered organic ligands, both of which can be modified separately. This hybrid character endows the material with an unusual degree of tunability and flexibility. Here, the authors present their results on the synthesis and extensive characterization of 2D OIPC single-crystalline bilayers of (C $_{4}$ H $_{9}$ NH $_{3}$ ) $_{2}$ PbI $_{4}$ . These materials could significantly expand the range of van der Waals heterostructures that can be produced by their combination with, e.g., graphene, $h$ -BN layers, transition metal dichalcogenide layers, etc.
