Lei Chen (Rice University) “Quantum criticality and correlated topology in flat band systems”

Bloomberg 462

Strong correlation effects are believed to be the driving force behind many novel quantum phases and exotic phenomena, such as strange metallicity. They become pronounced when the electrostatic repulsive interaction is larger than, or at least comparable to the kinetic energy. This regime naturally materializes in f-electron-based heavy fermion metals, as well as in d-electron-based […]
