Cascade of Multielectron Bubble Phases in Monolayer Graphene at High Landau Level Filling.

The phase diagram of an interacting two-dimensional electron system in a high magnetic field is enriched by the varying form of the effective Coulomb interaction, which depends strongly on the Landau level index. While the fractional quantum Hall states that dominate in the lower-energy Landau levels have been explored experimentally in a variety of two-dimensional systems, much less work has been done to explore electron solids owing to their subtle transport signatures and extreme sensitivity to disorder. Here, we use chemical potential measurements to map the phase diagram of electron solid states in N=2, N=3, and N=4 Landau levels in monolayer graphene.

Lorentz-Boost-Driven Magneto-Optics in a Dirac Nodal-Line Semimetal.

Optical response of crystalline solids is to a large extent driven by excitations that promote electrons among individual bands. This allows one to apply optical and magneto-optical methods to determine experimentally the energy band gap -a fundamental property crucial to our understanding of any solid-with a great precision. Here it is shown that such conventional methods, applied with great success to many materials in the past, do not work in topological Dirac semimetals with a dispersive nodal line.

Magneto-Optics of a Weyl Semimetal beyond the Conical Band Approximation: Case Study of TaP.

Landau-level spectroscopy, the optical analysis of electrons in materials subject to a strong magnetic field, is a versatile probe of the electronic band structure and has been successfully used in the identification of novel states of matter such as Dirac electrons, topological materials or Weyl semimetals. The latter arise from a complex interplay between crystal symmetry, spin-orbit interaction, and inverse ordering of electronic bands. Here, we report on unusual Landau-level transitions in the monopnictide TaP that decrease in energy with increasing magnetic field.

Origin of the Flat Band in Heavily Cs-Doped Graphene.

A flat energy dispersion of electrons at the Fermi level of a material leads to instabilities in the electronic system and can drive phase transitions. Here we show that the flat band in graphene can be achieved by sandwiching a graphene monolayer by two cesium (Cs) layers. We investigate the flat band by a combination of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiment and the calculations.
