We present Raman spectroscopy measurements on single- and few-layer graphene flakes. Using a scanning confocal approach we collect spectral data with spatial resolution, which allows us to directly compare images force micrographs. Single-layer can be distinguished from double- by the width of D' line: single peak for single-layer splits into different peaks double-layer. These findings are explained using double-resonant model based ab-initio calculations electronic structure phonon...
Upping the pressure in bilayer graphene The discovery of superconductivity and exotic insulating phases twisted has established this material as a model system strongly correlated electrons. To achieve superconductivity, two layers need to be at very precise angle with respect each other. Yankowitz et al. now show that another experimental knob, hydrostatic pressure, can used tune phase diagram (see Perspective by Feldman). Applying increased coupling between layers, which shifted...
A Dirac nodal-line semimetal phase, which represents a new quantum state of topological materials, has been experimentally realized only in few systems, including PbTaSe2, PtSn4, and ZrSiS.

In the quest to increase critical temperature Tc of cuprate superconductors, it is essential identify factors that limit strength superconductivity.

It exhibits two peaks, each located at point where Fermi surface...
We report on the unusual behavior of in-plane thermal conductivity ($\kappa$) and torque ($\tau$) response in Kitaev-Heisenberg material $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$. $\kappa$ shows a striking enhancement with linear growth beyond H = 7 T, where magnetic order disappears, while $\tau$ for both symmetry directions an anomaly at same field. The temperature- field-dependence are far more complex than conventional phonon magnon contributions, require us to invoke presence unconventional spin excitations...
