Phase diagrams of superconducting topological surface states

In this paper, we present a detailed study on the phase diagrams of superconducting topological surface states, especially, focusing on the interplay between crystalline symmetry and topology of the effective BdG Hamiltonian. We show that for the $4\times 4$ kinematic Hamiltonian of the normal state, a mirror symmetry $\mathcal{M}$ can be defined, and for the $\mathcal{M}$-odd pairings, the classification of the $8\times8$ BdG Hamiltonian is $\mathbb{Z}\oplus\mathbb{Z}$, and the time-reversal symmetry is broken intrinsically. The topological non-trivial phase can support chiral Majorana edge modes, and can be realized in the thin films of iron-based superconductor such as FeSeTe.

Electronic properties of germanene nanoribbons in external fields

Germanene nanoribbons, with buckled structures, exhibit unique electronic properties. The complicated relations among the quantum confinement, the spin-orbital coupling, the magnetic quantization, the electric-field dominated quantum numbers, energy dispersions, energy gap, state degeneracy, and wave functions. Such mechanisms can diversify spatial charge distributions and spin configurations on distinct sublattices. There exist the spin-split quasi-Landau levels and the valley-dependent asymmetric energy spectrum in a composite electric and magnetic field, manly owing to the destruction of z=0 mirror symmetry. The rich electronic structures are revealed in density of states as a lot of special structures. The predicted results could be directly verified by the scanning tunneling spectroscopy.

Quantization Phenomena of critical Hamiltonians in 2D systems

This review work addresses the recent advances in solving more comprehensive Hamiltonians. The generalized tight-binding model is developed to investigate the feature-rich quantization phenomena in emergent 2D materials. The mutli-orbital bondings, the spin-orbital interactions, the various geometric structures, and the external fields are taken into consideration simultaneously. Specifically, the IV-group layered systems, black phosphorus and MoS$_{2}$ exhibit the unique magnetic quantization. This is clearly indicated in three kinds of Landau levels (LLs), the orbital-, spin- and valley-dependent LL groups, the abnormal LL energy spectra, and the splitting, crossing and anticrossing behaviors. A detailed comparison with the effective-mass model is made. Some theoretical predictions have been confirmed by the experimental measurements.
