Fully self-consistent finite-temperature GW in Gaussian Bloch orbitals for solids

Chia-Nan Yeh, Sergei Iskakov, Dominika Zgid, and Emanuel Gull

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235104 (2022) - Published 5 December, 2022

Fully self-consistent GW is a many-body perturbation theory based on an approximation to the Luttinger-Ward functional. The method satisfies certain conservation laws and thermodynamic consistency, and the self-consistent framework allows us to systematically include strong correlations. Fully self-consistent GW calculations of real materials have so far been hampered by their high computational cost. This paper presents algorithmic improvements and implementation details for the fully self-consistent GW method that make such calculations routinely possible and documents the performance of the method via examples from several materials.

Effects of relaxation on the photovoltaic effect and possibility for photocurrent within the transparent region

Yugo Onishi, Hikaru Watanabe, Takahiro Morimoto, and Naoto Nagaosa

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235110 (2022) - Published 7 December, 2022

In this work, the authors explore the possibility of photocurrents in metals that break both inversion and time-reversal symmetries within the transparent region, i.e., where neither Drude absorption nor interband transitions can occur. The authors show that the photocurrent is O(ωJ/γ) with the frequency of the induced current ωJ and the scattering rate γ when ωJ γ. While dc photocurrent vanishes for finite γ, the theory here also indicates that nonvanishing photocurrent can appear even in the transparent region if ω γ.

Langevin dynamics of generalized spins as SU(N) coherent states

David Dahlbom, Cole Miles, Hao Zhang, Cristian D. Batista, and Kipton Barros

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235154 (2022) - Published 27 December, 2022

Quantum spin states often contain additional structure beyond the usual angular momentum dipole. The classical Landau-Lifshitz spin dynamics may be generalized to model the coupled dynamics of dipoles, quadrupoles, and higher order multipoles. This paper introduces temperature-dependent Langevin noise and damping terms to the generalized spin dynamics. High numerical efficiency is possible by working with coherent states in the Schrödinger picture. The method is illustrated via simulation of magnetic skyrmion dynamics both in and out of equilibrium.

Semiconductor Bloch equation analysis of optical Stark and Bloch-Siegert shifts in monolayer WSe2 and MoS2

A. O. Slobodeniuk, P. Koutenský, M. Bartoš, F. Trojánek, P. Malý, T. Novotný, and M. Kozák

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235304 (2022) - Published 5 December, 2022

Transition metal dichalcogenide monolayers possess two nonequivalent valleys in the extrema of their band structure. It turns out that off-resonant circularly polarized light affects the electronic excitations in each valley dissimilarly. Such a phenomenon leads to different shifts of the excitonic transitions in nonequivalent valleys of the monolayer. Here, the authors report on a theoretical investigation of such valley-selective transient shifts of both 1sA and 1sB exciton transitions in MoS2 and WSe2 monolayers. The study is based on the semiconductor Bloch equations, where, contrary to the previous studies, the many-body Coulomb interaction effects are properly included. The theoretical estimates of the excitonic shifts are in a good agreement with these novel experimental results.

Spin Berry curvature of the Haldane model

Simon Michel and Michael Potthoff

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235423 (2022) - Published 21 December, 2022

The nearly adiabatic dynamics of magnetic moments exchange coupled to the spinful Haldane model, i.e., to a prototypical Chern insulator, is non-Hamiltonian due to the geometric spin torque. This results from the spin Berry curvature, which determines the feedback of the Berry phase, accumulated in the electron system, to the spin dynamics. Here, the authors study the spin Berry curvature in different parameter regimes, near a topological phase transition, and for magnetic moments coupled to the zigzag edge in a nanoribbon geometry.

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235141 (2022) - Published 20 December, 2022

Recent experiments have shown that nearly metallic nanotubes remain insulating throughout magnetic field sweeps, in which the magnetic flux through the nanotube is expected to pass through a critical point where the single-particle band gap closes in one valley. Here, the authors investigate correlated insulating states of zigzag carbon nanotubes, which emerge from the interplay of electron-electron interactions, magnetic flux, strain, and spin-orbit coupling. They find that the gap for charged excitations generically remains open near the critical flux value, and predict a novel mirror symmetry breaking phase that may arise in the experimentally relevant regime of spin-orbit coupling.

Spin and valley Hall effects induced by asymmetric interparticle scattering

M. M. Glazov and L. E. Golub

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235305 (2022) - Published 5 December, 2022

The physics of spin currents has always attracted the attention of Professor Rashba who made seminal contributions to the field. Here, the authors develop the theory of the spin and valley Hall effects in systems of interacting fermions and bosons. In high-mobility two-dimensional semiconductors, the interparticle scattering dominates over the impurity and phonon scattering and controls the transport effects. The authors demonstrate theoretically that the collisions between the quasiparticles give rise to the spin and valley Hall currents via the skew-scattering effect. They also calculate the efficiency of such a process.

Spin-orbital effect on the polariton state in traps

Yuri G. Rubo

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235306 (2022) - Published 5 December, 2022

To what extent can photonic or polaritonic systems model electron spin-dependent phenomena? Even in the single-particle description the main limitation comes from the time-reversal symmetry operation, which is different for electrons and polaritons. This paper analyzes the qualitative differences between the trapped polariton states in the presence of transverse-electric–transverse-magnetic splitting as compared to the trapped electron states in the presence of Rashba spin-orbit coupling. It is shown that the coupling of orbital and polarization (spin) degrees of freedom is enhanced in polariton rings, leading to the formation of a ground state with a polarization-vortex structure.

Ballistic-electron coherent spin precession in a Rashba two-dimensional electron system

Mark Johnson

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235307 (2022) - Published 5 December, 2022

In a remarkable manifestation of the Rashba spin-orbit coupling effect, spin polarized carriers injected into a narrow two-dimensional electron system channel have ballistic trajectories and a weakly relativistic Fermi velocity. In the carrier rest frame, the intrinsic electric field in the quantum well transforms as an effective magnetic field, H*, transverse to the trajectories. Electrons with initial spin momentum and polarization orientations along the channel precess because of H* with a wavelength λ. For long mean free paths l, spin detection probes at distances L < l record conductance oscillations with wavelength λ. Two unique experiments that demonstrate these oscillations are discussed.

Back in 1958 E.I. Rashba predicted the so-called resonant (long-range exchange) interaction between an electron and a hole in Wannier-Mott excitons. This interaction underlies exciton fine structure and its spin dynamics. Here, the author develops a model of the coherent exciton spin-valley dynamics in two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides caused by the interplay of the wave-vector dependent exchange interaction (LT splitting) and wave-vector independent anisotropic splitting induced by elastic strain. The author uncoversdifferent regimes of coherent spin dynamics of two-dimensional excitons and outlines the possibilities to disentangle the strain-induced from the LT splitting.

Spin Berry curvature of the Haldane model

Phys. Rev. B 106, 235423 (2022) - Published 21 December, 2022

The nearly adiabatic dynamics of magnetic moments exchange coupled to the spinful Haldane model, i.e., to a prototypical Chern insulator, is non-Hamiltonian due to the geometric spin torque. This results from the spin Berry curvature, which determines the feedback of the Berry phase, accumulated in the electron system, to the spin dynamics. Here, the authors study the spin Berry curvature in different parameter regimes, near a topological phase transition, and for magnetic moments coupled to the zigzag edge in a nanoribbon geometry.
