Quantized topological magnetoelectric effect of the zero-plateau quantum anomalous Hall state

Jing Wang, Biao Lian, Xiao-Liang Qi, and Shou-Cheng Zhang

Phys. Rev. B 92, 081107(R) (2015) - Published 10 August, 2015

Motivated by the possibility of experimental detection of the topological magnetoelectric effect the authors put forth a theoretical proposal for its realization in the zero plateau quantum anomalous Hall state of a ferromagnet-topological insulator heterostructure.

Muonium donor in rutile ${TiO}_{2}$ and comparison with hydrogen

R. C. Vilão, R. B. L. Vieira, H. V. Alberto, J. M. Gil, A. Weidinger, R. L. Lichti, B. B. Baker, P. W. Mengyan, and J. S. Lord

Phys. Rev. B 92, 081202(R) (2015) - Published 17 August, 2015

Muonium is like hydrogen, but with a positively charged muon instead of a proton at the center. Observing muon spin rotation in a single crystal of TiO $_{2}$ , and comparing to existing data for hydrogen, the authors demonstrate that the defect configuration and electronic structure are the same for both. This provides important support for research which uses muons as a substitute for hydrogen in semiconductors.

Topological magnetoelectric effects in thin films of topological insulators

Takahiro Morimoto, Akira Furusaki, and Naoto Nagaosa

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085113 (2015) - Published 7 August, 2015

The authors describe two theoretical setups that could be used to demonstrate the yet unobserved topological magnetoelectric effect. The first proposal employs the zero-filling quantum Hall effect in thin films under magnetic field. The second setup involves topological insulator thin films doped with two magnetic ions such as Cr and Mn.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Quantum oscillations in the heavy-fermion compound YbPtBi

E. Mun, S. L. Bud'ko, Y. Lee, C. Martin, M. A. Tanatar, R. Prozorov, and P. C. Canfield

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085135 (2015) - Published 20 August, 2015

Heavy fermion systems are useful for studying quantum criticality because the low energy scale associated with their large effective mass can be tuned by nonthermal control parameters. Here, Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations are observed in YbPtBi, a heavy fermion compound with an exceptionally large effective mass for electrons, at a high magnetic field that reveals the shape of the Fermi surface. In the future these observations, when combined with additional data at lower magnetic fields, could provide important information about quantum criticality in these systems.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Chiral degeneracies and Fermi-surface Chern numbers in bcc Fe

Daniel Gosálbez-Martínez, Ivo Souza, and David Vanderbilt

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085138 (2015) - Published 21 August, 2015

Using bcc Fe as a playground, the authors investigate the presence of chiral degeneracies in realistic band structures of ferromagnetic materials. They find ubiquitous Weyl points and demonstrate that Chern numbers can be transferred between Fermi sheets by varying the Fermi level or an external parameter such as the magnetization direction.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Random Coulomb antiferromagnets: From diluted spin liquids to Euclidean random matrices

J. Rehn, Arnab Sen, A. Andreanov, Kedar Damle, R. Moessner, and A. Scardicchio

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085144 (2015) - Published 25 August, 2015

The authors study classical Heisenberg antiferromagnets with long-range interactions in two and three dimensions. These antiferromagnets can arise as effective models of diluted Coulomb spin liquids in the zero-temperature limit. The authors develop a phase diagram of these models as a function of the strength of the effective interaction strength.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

${({In}_{x} {Ga}_{1 - x})}_{2} O_{3}$ alloys for transparent electronics

Hartwin Peelaers, Daniel Steiauf, Joel B. Varley, Anderson Janotti, and Chris G. Van de Walle

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085206 (2015) - Published 31 August, 2015

In $_{2}$ O $_{3}$ and Ga $_{2}$ O $_{3}$ are both transparent conducting oxides with advantageous properties, but differing crystal structures. Alloying the two together could permit the tuning of materials properties such as band gaps, but raises the question of what the stable crystal structure would be. Using state of the art first principles calculations, the authors predict alloy properties as a function of composition, finding the structure with the lowest formation barrier. They also report natural band alignments which can aid in the design of heterostructures.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Magnetoresistance quantum oscillations in a magnetic two-dimensional electron gas

J. Kunc, B. A. Piot, D. K. Maude, M. Potemski, R. Grill, C. Betthausen, D. Weiss, V. Kolkovsky, G. Karczewski, and T. Wojtowicz

Phys. Rev. B 92, 085304 (2015) - Published 12 August, 2015

At low temperatures, the longitudinal resistivity of metallic systems exhibits quantum oscillations when submitted to a sufficiently high magnetic field. The authors report magneto-transport study of a high quality magnetic two-dimensional electron gas formed in a diluted magnetic CdMnTe quantum well. They find that the Shubnikov-de Haas characteristics is well-described by incorporating the electron Mn exchange interaction into the traditional Lifshitz-Kosevich formalism in a “mean field” approach.
