Our new arXiv paper arxiv.org/abs/2610.17879 Misfit compounds are superlattices assembled by nature: they are made of alternating 2D lattice with distinct symmetries (e.g. square & triangular). How would superconductivity manifests itself therein, if layers are superconductors?

Check out our Perspective article on Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter. We propose a new playground—surface of black phosphorus—for investigating the interplay between localization, electronic reconstruction, and electronic correlation. iopscience.iop.org/article/1… – at Dresden, Germany

Jacky and Souvik are attending the annual SuperC summer workshop this week in the gorgeous #Azores, learning the frontier in discovering new high-temperature superconductors and joining deep discussions about pathways to increase the critical temperature toward room temperature.

Fresh air, deep conversations, and a reset in the heart of #SaxonSwitzerland 🌲⛰️ Grateful for an inspiring group retreat of the Department of Topological Quantum Chemistry this week — a perfect mix of reflection, connection, and adventure. – at Bad Schandau, Deutschland

Excited to share our new paper! We developed a way to directly probe how single electrons move in tiny nanoscale structures, revealing how subtle material differences control electron flow. A step toward better single-electron and quantum devices. doi.org/10.1103/ft3t-cy3k

Calling for your paper for the special collection on 2D Quantum Materials! I'm honored to be serving as the collection's Guest Editor and eager to read your submission. Learn more about the collection and how to contribute: bit.ly/4bJ0J3z #CallForPapers @springer1842

Yesterday was a busy day for our group: Jacky gave a talk about Coulomb blockade spectroscopy; Souvik presented his previous PhD work on topological superconductivity; Shamarita showed a poster with our fresh new data on misfit superconductors. Enjoy the rest of the conference!

Today Dongming gives a talk at #DPG spring meeting in Dresden about our new results on arXiv. All our group members will present works this week. Stay tuned!

Our new preprint online: arxiv.org/abs/2603.01848 We have identified a field-tunable surface resonance—partially detached electronic states on the surface, which dominate the screening of external electric field—an effect must be considered in the design of semiconducting devices.

Takeaway message: Due to the interband coupling, and when the two distinct coherence peaks cannot be resolved, the weak modulation of the coherence peak energy can be misinterpreted in other works as a modulation of the superconducting gap in the sense of a pair density wave.

We are very glad to have Souvik Das joining our group as a postdoc starting this month. Souvik just finished his PhD under the supervision of Prof. Stuart Parkin at MPI for Microstructure Physics. He will work on MBE growth and characterization of new superconducting films.

A great start of the new year: this paper is now published in Phys. Rev. B. link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/39j… – at Dresden, Germany
