We propose a Haldane-like model of dice lattice analogous to graphene and explore its topological properties within the tight-binding formalism. The topological phase boundary of …
We have calculated and investigated the electronic states, dynamical polarization function and the plasmon excitations for α-T 3 nanoribbons with armchair-edge termination. The …
We present impelling evidence of topological phase transitions induced by electron-phonon (e-ph) coupling in an α-T 3 Haldane-Holstein model that facilitates smooth tunability …
In the presence of external off-resonance and circularly polarized irradiation, we have derived a many-body formalism and performed a detailed numerical analysis for both the …
We generalize Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) semiclassical equations for pseudospin-1 α− T 3 materials with arbitrary hopping parameter 0< α< 1, which includes the dice lattice …
We report a theoretic study of the topological properties of the α-T 3 lattice by taking the intrinsic spin orbit interaction into account. It is shown that when 0< α< 1, the electronic band …
The gap generation in the dice model with local four-fermion interaction is studied. Due to the presence of two valleys with degenerate electron states, there are two main types of …
An extensive analytical and numerical investigation has been carried out to examine the role played by many-body effects on various $\alpha $-$\mathcal {T} _3 $ materials under an off …
We have investigated electron tunneling through an atomically smooth square potential barrier for both the dice lattice and graphene under a linearly polarized off-resonant and …
