  • Fast topological switch using strained Weyl semimetals
    Patent number: 10861995
    Abstract: A method of operating a device includes: (1) providing a film of a semimetal in a first topological phase; and (2) inducing interlayer shear oscillation of the semimetal within the film, wherein the interlayer shear oscillation induces the semimetal to transition to a different, second topological phase.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 3, 2019
    Date of Patent: December 8, 2020
    Assignee: The Board of Trustees of the Leland Stanford Junior University
