Thickness-dependent phase transition in graphite under high magnetic field

Toshihiro Taen, Kazuhito Uchida, and Toshihito Osada

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115122 (2018) - Published 12 March, 2018

An insulating state in graphite, which appears in a strong magnetic field around 30 T, may have its origin in an exotic density-wave state - a valley-density wave state. Experimental verification, however, has been a challenging problem. By reducing the thickness of graphite, the authors demonstrate that this insulator state becomes unstable. This thickness dependence implies evolution of the ordered state along the out-of-plane direction. The phase transition lines of each thickness can be qualitatively reproduced by the density-wave model. This thinning approach, free from introducing defects or carriers, will help understand the entire phase diagram of graphite.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Two-dimensional Dirac fermions in thin films of $C d_{3} A s_{2}$

Luca Galletti, Timo Schumann, Omor F. Shoron, Manik Goyal, David A. Kealhofer, Honggyu Kim, and Susanne Stemmer

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115132 (2018) - Published 15 March, 2018

Three-dimensional topological Dirac semimetals are a new state of matter. The authors report on experiments that directly access the electronic structure of two-dimensional states in the prototype topological Dirac semimetal Cd $_{3}$ As $_{2}$ . By modulating the carrier density of very thin, epitaxial Cd $_{3}$ As $_{2}$ films, using the electric field effect, the authors tune the electronic states through a two-dimensional Dirac point, as evidenced by a minimum in the density of states. Moreover, the linear energy dispersion and the presence of a zero-energy Landau level establish the topological nature of the two-dimensional states in this three-dimensional Dirac semimetal.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Band structure evolution and the origin of magnetism in (Ga,Mn)As: From paramagnetic through superparamagnetic to ferromagnetic phase

L. Gluba, O. Yastrubchak, J. Z. Domagala, R. Jakiela, T. Andrearczyk, J. Żuk, T. Wosinski, J. Sadowski, and M. Sawicki

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115201 (2018) - Published 13 March, 2018

The authors investigate the development of magnetic phases in (Ga,Mn)As – the canonical dilute ferromagnetic semiconductor – in a thoroughly prepared set of high-quality layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The Mn content in the (Ga,Mn)As solid solution extends from the extremely diluted (0.0007% Mn) to the medium Mn content of 1.6%. The authors trace simultaneously the evolution of magnetic and electronic properties of (Ga,Mn)As by comprehensive magnetic (SQUID magnetometry) optical (Raman scattering and photoreflectance) and ARPES measurements. The onset of a low-temperature ferromagnetic phase in (Ga,Mn)As is revealed for 1.6% Mn, the composition just slightly above the one displaying purely superparamagnetic behavior (0.9% Mn). No signature of a Mn-related impurity band has been identified in superparamagnetic and ferromagnetic (Ga,Mn)As.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Nanomechanical control of optical field and quality factor in photonic crystal structures

Michele Cotrufo, Leonardo Midolo, Žarko Zobenica, Maurangelo Petruzzella, Frank W. M. van Otten, and Andrea Fiore

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115304 (2018) - Published 8 March, 2018

The control of localized light modes is extremely important both for fundamental studies and for practical applications. Most past studies focused on gaining control over the mode frequency, while the mode spatial distribution, which is equally important in governing radiative interactions, has usually been harder to manipulate. Here, the authors have investigated theoretically and experimentally a photonic crystal device where a sub-100 nm displacement, controlled by an applied voltage, can strongly reshape the field profiles. As a first application, the authors demonstrated that this effect can be used to strongly modify the optical $Q$ factors. A loss modulation by more than a factor five is measured experimentally, a value that could be increased further with the help of optimized fabrication.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Role of electron tunneling in the nonlinear response of plasmonic nanogaps

Garikoitz Aguirregabiria, Dana Codruta Marinica, Ruben Esteban, Andrey K. Kazansky, Javier Aizpurua, and Andrei G. Borisov

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115430 (2018) - Published 19 March, 2018

In plasmonic dimers, tunneling of electrons through the gap between the nanoparticles is often seen as a major disadvantage due to the quenching of the near fields associated to it. Nevertheless, tunneling is a highly nonlinear process and thus it might be advantageous for certain nonlinear applications. Using time-dependent density functional theory, the authors investigate how the second- and third-harmonic generation is influenced by electron tunneling in plasmonic dimers. They show that the nonlinear currents associated to the tunneling process in ultranarrow gaps can strongly enhance the high-harmonic generation.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Near-perfect conversion of a propagating plane wave into a surface wave using metasurfaces

S. N. Tcvetkova, D.-H. Kwon, A. Díaz-Rubio, and S. A. Tretyakov

Phys. Rev. B 97, 115447 (2018) - Published 28 March, 2018

Conversion between free-space and guided-wave propagation modes is an essential function in numerous microwave, optical, and acoustical devices. The performance of currently available wave couplers is far from perfect due to the presence of parasitic scattering and reflections, which have been considered unavoidable up till now. The authors propose a technique for converting a homogeneous plane wave into a surface wave with linear power growth using metasurfaces. With a dramatic enhancement of conversion efficiency, the proposed metasurface wave couplers will find numerous applications ranging from perfect leaky-wave antennas in the microwave range to ideal photovoltaic cells in the visible range.
