Discovery of a Single-Band Mott Insulator in a van der Waals Flat-Band Compound
Discovery of a Single-Band Mott Insulator in a van der Waals Flat-Band Compound
The Mott insulator provides an excellent foundation for exploring a wide range of strongly correlated physical phenomena, such as high-temperature superconductivity, quantum spin liquid, and colossal magnetoresistance. A Mott insulator with the simplest degree of freedom is an ideal and highly desirable system for studying the fundamental physics of Mottness. …
