      <description>Physical Review B: The periodic Anderson model, traditionally realized in rare-earth compounds with limited tunability, have hindered systematic exploration of correlated quantum phenomena. Here, we introduce a strategy for realizing and engineering this model in incommensurate van der Waals heterostructures by coupli… [Phys. Rev. B 114…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Quenched disorder can profoundly modify phase transitions. In low-dimensional systems, theory predicts that even weak quenched disorder can round the thermodynamic discontinuities associated with a first-order phase transition. Here, we employ time-domain terahertz spectroscopy to investigate the quasi-two-dimensional…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The magnetoelectric coupling in compensated magnets enables stray-field-free manipulation of spin-splitting, holding great promise for spintronics, but inherently hindered by the symmetry mismatch between spatial-inversion-broken ferroelectricity and time-reversal-broken spin states. Here, based on a symmetry-decoupled…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Strongly correlated two-dimensional systems provide compelling platforms for investigating exotic quantum phenomena. Niobium chloride (Nb₃Cl₈), a single-band Mott insulator, exhibits a remarkable out-of-plane polarization in its topmost layer that oscillates with layer parity, manifesting as an odd-even effect. Using…</description>

      <description>arXiv: Excitonic band structure is critical for investigating exciton dynamics. Theoretically, quantum effects from exchange scattering between electron-hole pairs significantly modulate exciton dispersion. Here, we report the direct observation of dimensionality-dependent exciton dispersion in a single-band Mott insulator…</description>

      <description>arXiv: The kagome lattice provides a playground to explore novel correlated quantum states due to the presence of flat bands in its electronic structure. Recently discovered layered kagome compound Nb3Cl8 has been proposed as a Mott insulator coming from the half-filled flat band. Here we have carried out systematic transport…</description>

      <description>arXiv: We report direct spectroscopic evidence of correlation-driven Mott states in layered Nb₃Cl₈ through combining scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and dynamical mean-field theory. The Hubbard bands persist down to monolayer, providing the definitive evidence for the Mottness in Nb₃Cl₈. While the size of the Mott gap…</description>
