abstract = {Three-dimensional topological gapless phases have attracted significant attention due to their unique electronic properties. One of the flagships is the Weyl semimetals, which requires breaking time-reversal or inversion symmetry in three dimensions. In two dimensions, the dimensionality reduction requires imposing an additional symmetry, thereby weakening the phase. Like its three-dimensional counterpart, these two-dimensional Weyl semimetals present edge states directly related to Weyl nodes. The direct comparison with the edge states in zigzag-like terminated graphene ribbons is unavoidable, offering the question of how robust these states are and their differences. Here we benchmark the robustness of the edge states in two-dimensional Weyl semimetals with those present in zigzag graphene ribbons. To such end, we use a Dirac Hamiltonian model proposed by Young and Kane, adding new terms for inducing a two-dimensional Weyl semimetal phase and use a scattering picture for the transport calculation. Our results show that despite having a similar electronic band structure, the edge states of two-dimensional Weyl semimetal are more robust against vacancies than graphene ribbons. We attribute this enhanced robustness to a crucial role of the spin degree of freedom in the former case.},

Specifically, we study photon statistics, one-mode and two-mode squeezing, and entanglement generation when the localized state is excited with squeezed light. These quantum properties inherit the shape of the localized state but, more interestingly, and unlike in the topologically trivial case, we find that propagation of squeezed light in a topologically protected state robustly preserves the phase of the squeezed quadrature as the system evolves.

We show that the well-known dynamical gaps that appear in the Floquet spectrum at ±ℏΩ/2 lead to a switch-off of the quantum Hall edge transport for different edge terminations except for the armchair one, where two terms cancel out exactly. More interestingly, we show that near the Dirac point changing the laser polarization (circular right or circular left) controls the Hall conductance, by allowing to switch it on or off, or even by flipping its sign, thereby reversing the chirality of the edge states.

In this Roadmap collection we aim to capture a snapshot of the most recent developments in the field, and to identify outstanding challenges and emerging opportunities. The format of the Roadmap, whereby experts in each discipline share their viewpoint and articulate their vision for quantum materials, reflects the dynamic and multifaceted nature of this research area, and is meant to encourage exchanges and discussions across traditional disciplinary boundaries. It is our hope that this collective vision will contribute to sparking new fascinating questions and activities at the intersection of materials science, condensed matter physics, device engineering, and quantum information, and to shaping a clearer landscape of quantum materials science as a new frontier of interdisciplinary scientific inquiry.},

By varying the detuning coefficient we find a regime where bands become flatter (with reduced transport) and a second regime, where both bands connect at a gap-closing transition (with enhanced transport). We detect an asymmetric transport due to the asymmetric intermode coupling and a linear energy exchange mechanism between modes. Further analysis shows that the bands have a topological transition with a nontrivial Zak phase which leads to the appearance of edge states in a finite system. Finally, for zero detuning, we found a symmetric condition for coupling constants, where the linear spectrum becomes completely flat, with states fully localized in space occupying only two lattice sites.},

abstract = {Shift current\textemdasha photocurrent induced by light irradiating noncentrosymmetric materials in the absence of any bias voltage or built-in electric field\textemdashis one of the mechanisms of the so-called bulk photovoltaic effect. It has been traditionally described as a nonlinear optical response of a periodic solid to continuous wave light using a perturbative formula, which is linear in the intensity of light and which involves Berry connection describing the shift in the center of mass position of the Wannier wave function associated with the transition between the valence and conduction bands of the solid. Since shift current is solely due to off-diagonal elements of the nonequilibrium density matrix that encode quantum correlations, its peculiar space\textendashtime dynamics in response to femtosecond light pulse employed locally can be expected. To study such response requires to analyze realistic two-terminal devices, instead of traditional periodic solids, for which we choose paradigmatic Rice\textendashMele model sandwiched between two metallic electrodes and apply to it time-dependent nonequilibrium Green function algorithms scaling linearly in the number of time steps and capable of treating nonperturbative effects in the amplitude of external time-dependent fields. This reveals novel features: superballistic transport, signified by time dependence of the displacement of the photoexcited charge carriers from the spot where the femtosecond light pulse is applied toward the electrodes; and photocurrent quadratic in light intensity at subgap frequencies of light due to two-photon absorption processes that were missed in previous perturbative analyses. Furthermore, frequency dependence of the DC component of the photocurrent reveals shift current as a realization of nonadiabatic quantum charge pumping enabled by breaking of left\textendashright symmetry of the device structure. This demonstrates that a much wider class of systems, than the usually considered polar noncentrosymmetric bulk materials, can be exploited to generate nonzero DC component of photocurrent in response to unpolarized light and optimize shift-current-based solar cells and optoelectronic devices.},

 in the low-frequency regime to unveil the hierarchy of Floquet edge 

 states. In the case of low intensities an analytical approach allows us 

 to derive effective Hamiltonians and address the topological character 

 of each gap in a constructive manner. At high intensities we obtain the 

 net number of edge states, given by the winding number, with a numerical 

 calculation of the Chern numbers of each Floquet band. Using these 

 methods, we find a hierarchy that resembles that of a Russian nesting 

 doll. This hierarchy classifies the gaps and the associated edge states 

 in different orders according to the electron-photon coupling strength. 

 For large driving intensities, we rely on the numerical calculation of 

 the winding number, illustrated in a map of topological phase 

 transitions. The hierarchy unveiled with the low-energy effective 

 Hamiltonians, along with the map of topological phase transitions, 

 discloses the complexity of the Floquet band structure in the

 in the Fabry-Perot regime highlighting the crucial role of defects by 

 using atomistic simulations. We show that even a single defect added to 

 the pristine structure may produce a two orders of magnitude increase in 

 the pumped charge. (C) 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.},

abstract = {Floquet theory combined with a realistic description of the electronic 

 structure of illuminated graphene and graphene nanoribbons is developed 

 to assess the emergent non-adiabatic and non-perturbative effects on the 

 electronic properties. Here we introduce an efficient computational 

 scheme and illustrate its use by applying it to graphene nanoribbons in 

 the presence of both linear and circular polarization. The interplay 

 between confinement due to the finite sample size and laser-induced 

 transitions is shown to lead to sharp features in the average 

 conductance and density of states. Particular emphasis is given to the 

 emergence of the bulk limit response.},
