Anomalous shift and optical vorticity in the steady photovoltaic current

Penghao Zhu and A. Alexandradinata

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115108 (2024) - Published 5 September, 2024

Light can be rectified to a direct current by inducing real-space displacements (shifts) of quasiparticles. While the shift due to photon absorption (shiftexc) has received the prevailing attention, shifts due to intraband relaxation and interband recombination have been overlooked in recent decades. Here, the authors demonstrate that these shifts have a quantum geometric origin and can surpass shiftexc by orders of magnitude. The theory is applied to a case study of the three-dimensional semiconductor BiTeI.

Hofstadter spectrum of Chern bands in twisted transition metal dichalcogenides

Kryštof Kolář, Kang Yang, Felix von Oppen, and Christophe Mora

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115114 (2024) - Published 9 September, 2024

Twisted transition metal dichalcogenide bilayers feature topological flat bands at zero magnetic field, allowing the experimental observation of integer and fractional quantum anomalous Hall effects. This work studies the band structures of these systems under externally applied magnetic fields, uncovering a fingerprint of the zero field topology in the Hofstadter spectra. In particular, it emerges that the Landau-level-like behavior at zero flux can be understood using the band structures at finite flux.

Autoencoder-based analytic continuation method for strongly correlated quantum systems

Maksymilian Kliczkowski, Lauren Keyes, Sayantan Roy, Thereza Paiva, Mohit Randeria, Nandini Trivedi, and Maciej M. Maśka

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115119 (2024) - Published 11 September, 2024

Analytic continuation of numerical data obtained from quantum Monte Carlo simulations from imaginary time to real frequencies is of great interest in diverse fields. This is a classic ill-posed problem of inverting a Laplace transform. Here, the authors develop an unsupervised encoder-decoder neural network with deeply tunable architecture to address this question. For the repulsive Hubbard model, a paradigmatic model for correlated quantum materials and optical lattices, the authors show that their approach is more robust against noise than maximum entropy methods currently in use.

Sliding-dependent electronic structures of alternating-twist tetralayer graphene

Kyungjin Shin, Jiseon Shin, Yoonsung Lee, Hongki Min, and Jeil Jung

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115136 (2024) - Published 17 September, 2024

Unlike twisted bilayer graphene (TBG), the electronic structures of alternating-twist tetralayer graphene (ATTG) vary with sliding between layers. Here, the authors model the system as two vertically stacked equal twist angle TBG layers. They specifically explore how three sliding geometries (AA, AB, and SP) affect its electronic and optical properties, including valley Chern numbers. The results of optical conductivity and self-consistent Hartree band structures provide deeper insights into ATTG with various sliding configurations and offer potential experimental fingerprints.

Metric for quantifying elastic and inelastic thermal transport at interfaces

Yixin Xu and Yanguang Zhou

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115305 (2024) - Published 12 September, 2024

Quantifying elastic and inelastic phonon scattering at interfaces is critical for designing corresponding devices with desired thermal properties. However, a general metric for quickly characterizing the contributions to interfacial thermal conductance from elastic and inelastic phonon scattering processes is lacking. Here, the authors introduce a general metric based on the Kullback-Leibler divergence and interfacial anharmonic ratio to quickly assess the contributions to interfacial thermal conductance from elastic and inelastic phonon scattering.

Unified model for probing solar cell dynamics via cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy

Victor Lopez-Richard, Luiz A. Meneghetti, Jr., Gabriel L. Nogueira, Fabian Hartmann, and Carlos F. O. Graeff

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115306 (2024) - Published 12 September, 2024

This paper presents a unified framework for analyzing cyclic voltammetry and impedance spectroscopy in solar cells. By integrating diffusive transport and nonequilibrium carrier dynamics, the authors explain complex capacitive and inductive responses, offering analytical expressions for current-voltage behavior. The model predicts how external factors like bias and illumination impact impedance, extending beyond perovskites and memristors. This approach provides insights into the microscopic mechanisms of device performance, highlighting how external stimuli modulate charge transport in a wide range of photovoltaic technologies.

Tunable inter-moiré physics in consecutively twisted trilayer graphene

Wei Ren, Konstantin Davydov, Ziyan Zhu, Jaden Ma, Kenji Watanabe, Takashi Taniguchi, Efthimios Kaxiras, Mitchell Luskin, and Ke Wang

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115404 (2024) - Published 3 September, 2024

By electrostatically tuning the strength and hierarchy of the inter-moiré interaction in a consecutively twisted trilayer graphene (tTLG) device with two distinct moiré superlattices, the authors observe here a new type of inter-moiré Hofstadter butterfly. The periodical pattern of the butterfly corresponds to one of the intermediate quasicrystal length scales of the reconstructed moiré of moiré (MoM) superlattice. This study sheds new light on emergent physics from competing atomic orders in twisted multilayer 2D material platforms.

Second-order adiabatic expansion of heat and charge currents within the nonequilibrium Green's function approach

Sebastián E. Deghi and Raúl A. Bustos-Marún

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115409 (2024) - Published 5 September, 2024

Nanoscale heat management and energy conversion require precise control of energy flow. Adiabatic expansions are key tools for studying time-dependent devices such as quantum motors and pumps, but their complexity has limited research to first-order approximations. This work develops a novel theoretical framework to calculate second-order energy, heat, and charge currents, enabling a deeper understanding of quantum thermodynamics and the study of unexplored phenomena, such as second-order monoparametric pumping.

Linear magnetoelectric electro-optical effect

D. J. P. de Sousa, C. O. Ascencio, and Tony Low

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115421 (2024) - Published 16 September, 2024

Berry curvature and the magnetic moment of Bloch electrons in quantum materials yield unexpected electro-optical effects. Here, the authors derive a generalized constitutive relation for current response in electrically biased systems using semiclassical Boltzmann theory. They uncover a magnetoelectric electro-optical effect requiring broken time-reversal or inversion symmetry. This work reveals how Berry curvature and magnetic moment textures in Bloch bands can lead to unique electromagnetic signatures, potentially enabling new ways to manipulate light in quantum materials.

Electronic excitations in the bulk of fractional quantum Hall states

Xinlei Yue and Ady Stern

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115428 (2024) - Published 19 September, 2024

Tunneling electrons into fractional quantum Hall states is a potential probe for the fractionalization process. Here, the authors explore this process using composite fermion theory. They demonstrate how the long-range interaction dresses and shapes the electron spectral function to evolve from gapped sharp peaks to a possibly gapped continuum as the filling factor approaches compressible values.

Multi-moiré trilayer graphene: Lattice relaxation, electronic structure, and magic angles

Charles Yang, Julian May-Mann, Ziyan Zhu, and Trithep Devakul

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115434 (2024) - Published 24 September, 2024

As the number of layers in a moiré material increases, so does the dimensionality of their twist angle phase space. The authors study here trilayer graphene systems, identifying a “magic line” of configurations they expect to demonstrate strongly-correlated behavior. Some configurations are predicted to mechanically relax into a network of domains, which may exhibit topological or superconducting phases.

The periodical pattern of the butterfly corresponds to one of the intermediate quasicrystal length scales of the reconstructed moiré of moiré (MoM) superlattice. This study sheds new light on emergent physics from competing atomic orders in twisted multilayer 2D material platforms.

Nanoscale heat management and energy conversion require precise control of energy flow. Adiabatic expansions are key tools for studying time-dependent devices such as quantum motors and pumps, but their complexity has limited research to first-order approximations. This work develops a novel theoretical framework to calculate second-order energy, heat, and charge currents, enabling a deeper understanding of quantum thermodynamics and the study of unexplored phenomena, such as second-order monoparametric pumping.

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115421 (2024) - Published 16 September, 2024

Berry curvature and the magnetic moment of Bloch electrons in quantum materials yield unexpected electro-optical effects. Here, the authors derive a generalized constitutive relation for current response in electrically biased systems using semiclassical Boltzmann theory. They uncover a magnetoelectric electro-optical effect requiring broken time-reversal or inversion symmetry. This work reveals how Berry curvature and magnetic moment textures in Bloch bands can lead to unique electromagnetic signatures, potentially enabling new ways to manipulate light in quantum materials.

Tunneling electrons into fractional quantum Hall states is a potential probe for the fractionalization process. Here, the authors explore this process using composite fermion theory. They demonstrate how the long-range interaction dresses and shapes the electron spectral function to evolve from gapped sharp peaks to a possibly gapped continuum as the filling factor approaches compressible values.

Phys. Rev. B 110, 115434 (2024) - Published 24 September, 2024

As the number of layers in a moiré material increases, so does the dimensionality of their twist angle phase space. The authors study here trilayer graphene systems, identifying a “magic line” of configurations they expect to demonstrate strongly-correlated behavior. Some configurations are predicted to mechanically relax into a network of domains, which may exhibit topological or superconducting phases.
