Pressure Induced Nonmonotonic Evolution of Superconductivity in 6R-TaS_{2} with a Natural Bulk Van der Waals Heterostructure.

The natural bulk Van der Waals heterostructure compound 6R-TaS_{2} consists of alternate stacking 1T- and 1H-TaS_{2} monolayers, creating a unique system that incorporates charge-density-wave (CDW) order and superconductivity (SC) in distinct monolayers. Here, after confirming that the 2D nature of the lattice is preserved up to 8 GPa in 6R-TaS_{2}, we documented an unusual evolution of CDW and SC by conducting high-pressure electronic transport measurements. Upon compression, we observe a gradual suppression of CDW within the 1T layers, while the SC exhibits a dome-shaped behavior that terminates at a critical pressure P_{c} around 2.

Spectral Analysis of Bloch-Like Oscillations in Conjugated Polymers.

We present a spectrum investigation of the behavior of dissociated polarons under high electric fields in conjugated polymers. The study employs the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model along with nonadiabatic molecular dynamics and frequency-domain analysis methods to analyze the Bloch-like oscillations. It is found that the fundamental frequencies of the current density agree well with the theoretical Bloch frequencies of the perfect crystals.

Current through a hybrid four-terminal Josephson junction with Majorana nanowires.

We investigate the current through a hybrid four-terminal Josephson junction with semiconductor nanowires, in which the junction is connected with two superconducting electrodes and two normal electrodes. The semiconductor nanowire, which is subject to an external magnetic field with Rashba spin-orbit coupling and proximity-induced superconductivity, can host Majorana bound states. When all the nanowires lie in topological nontrivial region, a 4-periodic current can be observed through the normal terminal and a 2-periodic current through the superconducting terminal.
