CM Seminar: Xie Chen – California Institute of Technology: Fracton and Chern-Simons Theory

Virtual event

Xie Chen – California Institute of Technology Title: Fracton and Chern-Simons Theory Abstract: Fracton order describes the peculiar phenomena that point excitations in certain strongly interacting systems either cannot move at all or can only move in a lower dimensional sub-manifold. It has recently been discovered in various lattice models, tensor gauge theories, etc. In this […]

CM Seminar: Adina Luican-Mayer – University of Ottawa: 2D Quantum materials and devices at the atomic scale

BRIM 311 2355 East Mall, Vancouver, British Columbia

Adina Luican-Mayer – University of Ottawa Title: 2D Quantum materials and devices at the atomic scale Abstract:Material systems, devices, and circuits, based on the manipulation of individual charges, spins, and photons in solid-state platforms are key for quantum technologies. The burgeoning field of quantum two-dimensional (2D) materials presents an emerging opportunity for the development of […]
