Explore the fascinating world of non-reciprocal matter and phase transitions in this 48-minute lecture by Peter Littlewood at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into a unique perspective on physics that challenges traditional Newtonian principles, focusing on systems where Newton's third law does not apply. Gain insights into the behavior of engineered 2D quantum materials and their emergent phenomena, including electronic, magnetic, and topological properties. Discover how reduced dimensionality and interactions between different quantum materials can lead to novel electronic band structures and host emergent behaviors not found in bulk systems. This talk is part of a comprehensive program on Engineered 2D Quantum Materials, covering topics such as magnetism, topological superconductivity, flat bands, correlated phenomena in twisted van der Waals heterostructures, and quantum simulators using engineered 2D materials.
