Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have a range of unique physics properties and could be used in the development electronics, photonics, spintronics quantum computing devices. The mechanical exfoliation technique micro-size TMD flakes has attracted particular interest due to its simplicity cost effectiveness. However, for most applications, large area high quality films are preferred. Furthermore, when thickness crystalline is down 2D limit (monolayer), exotic can...

Some models of the 5/2 fractional quantum Hall state predict that quasiparticles, which carry charge, have non-Abelian statistics: exchange two quasiparticles changes wave function more dramatically than just usual change phase factor. Such statistics would make system less sensitive to decoherence, making it a candidate for implementation topological computation. We measure quasiparticle tunneling as temperature and dc bias between counterpropagating edge states. Fits theory give ${e}^{*}$,...
