Abstract: Precise control over the size and shape of graphene nanostructures allows engineering spin-polarized edge and topological states, representing a novel source of non-conventional π-magnetism with promising applications in quantum spintronics. A prerequisite for their emergence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1039/d1tc00978h
Abstract: Comparison of racemic and homochiral analogues reveals that the racemic compounds appear to crystallize easily upon external thermal annealing and show more stable morphology. These differences will induce the formation of a planar conformation in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physrevb.97.125408
Abstract: Two-dimensional chiral topological superconductors can be realized in clean quantum anomalous Hall insulators under $s$-wave superconducting proximity, as is predicted by band theory. Under disorder, random domain walls hosting chiral Majorana fermion arise in space,… read more here.
