Author(s): V. Ranjan, S. Zihlmann, P. Makk, K. Watanabe, T. Taniguchi, and C. SchönenbergerThe electrical contacts needed for conventional probing of a graphene-based device can mask the very properties to be measured. The authors demonstrate a contactless measurement scheme that capacitively couples a device to a superconducting microwave resonator....

Author(s): Manisha Thakurathi, Daniel Loss, and Jelena KlinovajaWe study a periodically driven nanowire with Rashba-like conduction and valence bands in the presence of a magnetic field. We identify topological regimes in which the noninteracting system hosts zero-energy bound states. We further investigate the effect of strong electron-electron interactions...

Author(s): Arthur France-Lanord, Patrick Soukiassian, Christian Glattli, and Erich WimmerGraphene’s exceptional thermal conductivity is of great interest for heat management in advanced electronic devices, yet there are still fundamental issues regarding substrate effects. Using state-of-the-art simulations, the authors study collective phonon excitations...

Author(s): A. Marini, J. D. Cox, and F. J. García de AbajoSaturable absorption is a nonperturbative nonlinear optical phenomenon that plays a pivotal role in the generation of ultrafast light pulses. Here we show that this effect emerges in graphene at unprecedentedly low light intensities, thus opening avenues to new nonlinear physics and applications...

Author(s): O. V. Kibis, K. Dini, I. V. Iorsh, and I. A. ShelykhWe demonstrate theoretically that the interaction of electrons in gapped Dirac materials (gapped graphene and transition-metal dichalchogenide monolayers) with a strong off-resonant electromagnetic field (dressing field) substantially renormalizes the band gaps and the spin-orbit splitting....
