DNA is known to be a life material that has been explored as an exciting biomaterial for bio-
sensing, bio-imaging, and analytical applications. The current review focuses on describing …

Employing the fracton-elastic duality, we develop a low-energy effective theory of a zero-
temperature vortex crystal in a two-dimensional bosonic superfluid which naturally …

Modern theories of melting of two-dimensional systems are discussed that are mainly based
on the concepts of the Berezinskii–Kosterlitz–Thouless (BKT) theory of phase transitions in …

We report the observation of the melting of a vortex lattice in a fast rotating quasi-two
dimensional Bose gas, under the influence of thermal fluctuations. We image the vortex …

We report the formation of a pinned vortex liquid spanning a very large region of the
magnetic field-temperature parameter space in a 5-nm-thick amorphous superconducting …

Although crystalline materials are often conceptualized as involving a static lattice
configuration of particles, it has recently become appreciated that string-like collective …

We present a detailed numerical simulation study of a two-dimensional system of particles
interacting via the Weeks–Chandler–Anderson potential, the repulsive part of the Lennard …

Recently, detailed real-space imaging using scanning tunneling spectroscopy of the vortex
lattice in a weakly pinned a-MoGe thin film revealed that the vortex lattice melts in two steps …

Abrikosov vortices in Fe-based superconductors are a promising platform for hosting
Majorana zero-energy modes. Their adiabatic exchange is a key ingredient for Majorana …

We explore the effects of sample dimensionality on vortex pinning in a type-II, low-TC, s-
wave superconductor, NbN, in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field, H. We find …
