Final Report: Identification and Manipulation of Novel Topological Phases

Abstract

The goal of this award was identifying and manipulating novel topological phases. It has three main thrusts: 1) Searching for new topological electronic phases and directly visualizing topological spin currents using time-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy; 2) Measuring topological order through photo-induced currents; and 3)Probing new emergent phases at topological/non-topological materials interfaces using ultrafast non-linear spectroscopies. In this report, we describe some of the achievements under this award.
