Crystallization Can Create Chern Insulators
Offered By: Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore a 42-minute conference talk by Dan Parker from UCSD on how crystallization can create Chern insulators. Delivered as part of the "Moiré materials: A New Paradigm in Tunable Quantum Matter" conference at the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics, this presentation delves into the fascinating world of moiré materials and their potential for tunable quantum matter. Learn about the unprecedented tunability of band structure, symmetry, and topology offered by these materials, and how they serve as a rich platform for investigating various phenomena. Discover pressing theoretical questions surrounding moiré materials, including the origin of superconductivity, the nature of correlated states, and the role of topology. Gain insights into experimental challenges, novel techniques, and emerging tunable platforms such as twisted superconductors, topological surface states, quasi-periodic moiré systems, and twisted magnetic materials.
