Published in 2020 at "Physical Review B"

DOI: 10.1103/physrevb.101.085423

Abstract: We describe a simple setup generating pure valley currents -- valley transport without charge transport -- in strained graphene nanoribbons with zigzag edges. The crucial ingredient is a uniaxial strain pattern which couples to the… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Science Advances"

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.adf3673

Abstract: Spin and valley indices represent the key quantum labels of quasi-particles in a wide class of two-dimensional materials and form the foundational elements of the fields of spintronics and valleytronics. Control over these degrees of… read more here.
