Dynamically enriched topological orders in driven two-dimensional systems

Andrew C. Potter and Takahiro Morimoto

Phys. Rev. B 95, 155126 (2017) - Published 17 April, 2017

Time-periodic driving enables new nonequilibrium quantum phases of matter with topologically protected and quantum coherent motion that would be forbidden in thermal equilibrium. This work uncovers two new classes of driven topological phases in driven two-dimensional spin systems: i) Floquet symmetry protected topological phases, which are driven and interacting analogs of topological insulators whose edge states are protected against disorder and localization; and ii) Floquet enriched topological orders, in which time-dependent driving “breaks” the spins into anyonic particles with fractional statistics and oscillating topological charge. The physics of these phases is explored by constructing toy models that can be explicitly solved despite the presence of strong interactions.

Stability and instability towards delocalization in many-body localization systems

Wojciech De Roeck and François Huveneers

Phys. Rev. B 95, 155129 (2017) - Published 18 April, 2017

Many-body localization plays an increasing role in condensed matter theory, both because it challenges the fundaments of statistical physics, and because it allows us to engineer several new, exotic, stable phases of matter. In this paper, the authors address the issue of the stability of a many-body localized material in contact with an ergodic grain, i.e., an imperfect bath made of a few interacting degrees of freedom. Thanks to detailed microscopic analysis and numerics, they conclude that such an ergodic grain eventually destabilizes the localized phase in the following cases: if the spatial dimension is higher than one, or if the spatial dimension is one but the localization length of the localized material is larger than a fixed threshold value. In realistic materials, these ergodic grains are always present as Griffiths regions where the disorder is anomalously small, and hence, the authors conclude that the localized phase in such materials is unstable, strictly speaking. Transport and thermalization are however exponentially suppressed in the distance between ergodic grains.

Thermoelectric transport in disordered metals without quasiparticles: The Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev models and holography

Richard A. Davison, Wenbo Fu, Antoine Georges, Yingfei Gu, Kristan Jensen, and Subir Sachdev

Phys. Rev. B 95, 155131 (2017) - Published 18 April, 2017

Essentially all high temperature superconductors display a “strange metal” regime above their critical temperatures, where electrical and thermal transport cannot be explained within the traditional Fermi liquid paradigm of quasiparticle excitations. This paper focuses on the first, and newly discovered, solvable theory of a disordered metal without quasiparticle excitations, obtained by extending the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) models to finite spatial dimensions. The complete thermoelectric conductivity matrix is computed, and a surprising exact relation is found between the Seebeck coefficient and the derivative of the thermodynamic entropy with respect to the density. These computations are then compared with holographic theories which map strange metals onto black holes in theories of quantum gravity with one extra spatial dimension.

Magnetic quantum ratchet effect in (Cd,Mn)Te- and CdTe-based quantum well structures with a lateral asymmetric superlattice

P. Faltermeier, G. V. Budkin, J. Unverzagt, S. Hubmann, A. Pfaller, V. V. Bel'kov, L. E. Golub, E. L. Ivchenko, Z. Adamus, G. Karczewski, T. Wojtowicz, V. V. Popov, D. V. Fateev, D. A. Kozlov, D. Weiss, and S. D. Ganichev

Phys. Rev. B 95, 155442 (2017) - Published 24 April, 2017

This paper reports on the observation of the magnetic quantum ratchet effect in (Cd,Mn)Te- and CdTe-based quantum well structures with an asymmetric lateral dual grating gate superlattice subjected to an external magnetic field (B), applied normal to the quantum well plane. An electric current excited by terahertz laser radiation shows 1/B-periodic oscillations with amplitude much larger than the photocurrent at zero magnetic field. It is shown that the photocurrent generation is due to the combined action of a spatially periodic lateral potential and the spatially modulated radiation due to the near-field effects of light diffraction. The magnitude and direction of the photocurrent are determined by the degree of the lateral asymmetry controlled by the variation of voltages applied to the individual gates. The observed magneto-oscillations with enhanced photocurrent amplitude result from Landau quantization. For (Cd,Mn)Te-based structures at low temperatures, a beating-like pattern of the oscillations is observed, caused by the interplay of Zeeman and Landau splitting. A theoretical analysis, considering the magnetic quantum ratchet effect in the framework of a semiclassical approach, describes quite well the experimental results.

This paper reports on the observation of the magnetic quantum ratchet effect in (Cd,Mn)Te- and CdTe-based quantum well structures with an asymmetric lateral dual grating gate superlattice subjected to an external magnetic field (B), applied normal to the quantum well plane. An electric current excited by terahertz laser radiation shows 1/B-periodic oscillations with amplitude much larger than the photocurrent at zero magnetic field. It is shown that the photocurrent generation is due to the combined action of a spatially periodic lateral potential and the spatially modulated radiation due to the near-field effects of light diffraction. The magnitude and direction of the photocurrent are determined by the degree of the lateral asymmetry controlled by the variation of voltages applied to the individual gates. The observed magneto-oscillations with enhanced photocurrent amplitude result from Landau quantization. For (Cd,Mn)Te-based structures at low temperatures, a beating-like pattern of the oscillations is observed, caused by the interplay of Zeeman and Landau splitting. A theoretical analysis, considering the magnetic quantum ratchet effect in the framework of a semiclassical approach, describes quite well the experimental results.
