Topological Order in the ( 2 + 1 ) D Compact Lattice Super - conductor
– We study topological aspects of a compact lattice superconductor, and show that the characteristic energy splitting, ∆, between almost degenerate ground states, is simply related to a novel order parameter W̃ , which is closely related to large Wilson loops. Using Monte Carlo methods, we study the scaling properties of W̃ close to the deconfining phase transition, and conclude that ∆ ∼ e, where...
متن کاملInducing topological order in a honeycomb lattice
We explore the possibility of inducing a topological insulator phase in a honeycomb lattice lacking spin-orbit interaction using a metallic (or Fermi gas) environment. The lattice and the metallic environment interact through a density-density interaction without particle tunneling, and integrating out the metallic environment produces a honeycomb sheet with in-plane oscillating long-ranged int...
متن کاملOdd-parity topological superconductor with nematic order: Application to CuxBi2Se3
CuxBi2Se3 was recently proposed as a promising candidate for time-reversal-invariant topological superconductors. In this work, we argue that the unusual anisotropy of the Knight shift observed by Zheng and co-workers (unpublished), taken together with specific heat measurements, provides strong support for an unconventional odd-parity pairing in the two-dimensional Eu representation of the D3d...
متن کاملLocal Lattice Dynamics in the Mg0.5Al0.5B2 Superconductor
We have studied temperature evolution of the local as well as the average crystal structure of MgB2 and Mg0.5Al0.5B2 using real-space atomic pair distribution function (PDF) measured by high resolution neutron powder diffraction in a wide temperature range of T = 10–600 K. The mean square relative displacements (MSRD) of atomic B–B, B–Mg (B–Al) pairs are compared with mean-square displacements ...
متن کاملRobustness of Topological Order in Semiconductor-Superconductor Nanowires in the Coulomb Blockade Regime
Semiconductor-superconductor hybrid systems are promising candidates for the realization Majorana fermions and topological order, i.e. topologically protected degeneracies, in solid state devices. We show that the topological order is mirrored in the excitation spectra and can be observed in nonlinear Coulomb blockade transport through a ring-shaped nanowire. Especially, the excitation spectrum...
