Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy with quantum gas microscopes

A. Bohrdt, D. Greif, E. Demler, M. Knap, and F. Grusdt

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125117 (2018) - Published 13 March, 2018

Quantum gas microscopes are a promising tool to study interacting quantum many-body systems and bridge the gap between theoretical models and real materials. One of the most powerful experimental methods in solids is angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES), which measures the single-particle spectral function. The authors propose a measurement scheme to experimentally access the momentum- and energy-resolved spectral function in a quantum gas microscope. As an example for possible applications, the spectrum of a single hole excitation in one-dimensional t-J models is calculated and analyzed. A sharp asymmetry in the distribution of spectral weight, reminiscent of the Fermi arcs observed in the pseudogap phase of cuprates, appears in the case of an isotropic Heisenberg spin chain.

Interpretation of thermal conductance of the ν=5/2 edge

Steven H. Simon

Phys. Rev. B 97, 121406(R) (2018) - Published 29 March, 2018

Recent measurement by Banerjee et al. (2018) of the thermal conductance of a ν = 5/2 fractional quantum Hall edge has given a surprising result that contradicts prior theory. The current paper proposes a possible solution to this connundrum. The expected structure of the edge of a 5/2-droplet includes charge modes and an exotic neutral “Majorana” edge mode. The current paper shows that if the Majorana edge mode remains out of thermal equilibrium with the charge modes, the experiment can be fully explained.

Majorana spin in magnetic atomic chain systems

Jian Li, Sangjun Jeon, Yonglong Xie, Ali Yazdani, and B. Andrei Bernevig

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125119 (2018) - Published 15 March, 2018

Magnetic atomic chains grown on top of conventional superconductors may form an interesting and promising platform for the study of Majorana zero modes. Despite the strong evidence already provided with a state-of-art scanning tunneling microscope (STM) technique, clear features beyond the energetic and spatial ones are required to exclude the only remaining alternative interpretation of the zero modes as trivial Shiba states accidentally occurring at zero energy. The authors here propose a robust spin signature for this purpose. This signature is rooted in two sum rules that dictate the distribution of spin densities in a superconducting state with respect to a normal state, and has been recently detected with spin-polarized STM technique that implicitly takes advantage of the sum rules.

Fermion-induced quantum criticality with two length scales in Dirac systems

Emilio Torres, Laura Classen, Igor F. Herbut, and Michael M. Scherer

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125137 (2018) - Published 22 March, 2018

The recently discovered fermion-induced quantum critical points of Dirac materials present a new opportunity to revisit and extend the standard paradigms of quantum criticality. The appearance of a second diverging length scale at a continuous quantum phase transition is one such extension. The authors present a functional renormalization group study of fermion-induced quantum critical points in the broken-symmetry phase, in which the presence of gapless fermions and discrete symmetry breaking provide the natural setup for this phenomenon to occur.

Devil's staircase of odd-number charge order modulations in divalent β-vanadium bronzes under pressure

Touru Yamauchi, Hiroaki Ueda, Kenji Ohwada, Hironori Nakao, and Yutaka Ueda

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125138 (2018) - Published 22 March, 2018

A novel phase transition with a stepwise evolution of odd-number charge modulation is discovered in β-vanadium bronzes under pressures of about 1 GPa. All the charge modulation vectors of the many kinds of charge-ordered phases can be represented as a primitive lattice translation vector along the b axis multiplied by several odd numbers. This discovery demonstrates interplay between the charge degree of freedom and the crystallographic symmetry. This phenomenon is rationally explained by self-charge transfer (carrier redistribution) between two kinds of subsystems in the structure and sequential symmetry reduction as outlined in Landau theory of phase transitions.

Microscopic theory of cavity-enhanced single-photon emission from optical two-photon Raman processes

Dominik Breddermann, Tom Praschan, Dirk Heinze, Rolf Binder, and Stefan Schumacher

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125303 (2018) - Published 6 March, 2018

During the last two decades, single-photon emission from two-photon Raman processes has been extensively studied both experimentally and theoretically in atomic as well as in quantum-dot multilevel systems. However, despite theoretical predictions on-demand emission, which is crucial for quantum networking, has not been achieved in experiments yet. Based on the cluster-expansion approach, the authors have performed an in-depth microscopic analysis of the Raman transition in fundamental three-level configurations. They find that excitation-induced destructive quantum interference and Stark shifts of the Raman resonance have to be taken into account in order to close in on on-demand single-photon emission.

Anisotropic transport properties of quasiballistic InAs nanowires under high magnetic field

Florian Vigneau, Zaiping Zeng, Walter Escoffier, Philippe Caroff, Renaud Leturcq, Yann-Michel Niquet, Bertrand Raquet, and Michel Goiran

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125308 (2018) - Published 27 March, 2018

Narrow band gap III-V based nanowires are subject to intense research, notably thanks to the exceptional mobility of the carriers. Moreover, due to the strong spin-orbit coupling combined with the ability to host superconductivity, they provide a platform for the realization of Majorana fermions. Here, the authors performed very high field magnetotransport measurements (50T) on InAs nanowires in both longitudinal and perpendicular configuration, giving access, in the quasiballistic regime, to the energy spectrum. The experimental results are supported by band-structure calculations in the tight-binding approximation. Finally, under very strong magnetic field, the authors observed the formation of Landau states and cyclotron orbits in both configurations.

Quantum phase transition of chiral Majorana fermions in the presence of disorder

Biao Lian, Jing Wang, Xiao-Qi Sun, Abolhassan Vaezi, and Shou-Cheng Zhang

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125408 (2018) - Published 9 March, 2018

Two-dimensional chiral topological superconductors can be realized in clean quantum anomalous Hall insulators under s-wave superconducting proximity, as is predicted by band theory. Under disorder, random domain walls hosting chiral Majorana fermion arise in space, and conventional band theory becomes invalid. Employing percolation theory and the renormalization group method, the authors show that the disordered system still has a stable chiral topological superconductor phase, and exhibits a half-quantized conductance plateau as a feature. The critical exponents and temperature dependence of the conductance plateau and transitions are obtained, which can be tested by experiment.

Illuminating "spin-polarized" Bloch wave-function projection from degenerate bands in decomposable centrosymmetric lattices

Pengke Li (李鹏科) and Ian Appelbaum

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125434 (2018) - Published 29 March, 2018

As previously explored with sophisticated computational methods, projecting out incomplete components of Bloch wave functions yields ‘states’ that appear to be ‘spin polarized’. Here, the consequences and physical relevance of this so-called hidden spin polarization obtained by wave-function truncation is revealed by inspection of analytically solvable models. Importantly, the limitations and shortcomings of this electronic structure decomposition are illuminated using arguments focused on operator commutativity and broken gauge freedom in degenerate wave-function projection. Moreover, it is shown how surface-sensitive measurements using experimental techniques, such as ARPES, are inevitably convoluted by intrinsic spin splitting of the band structure due to broken inversion symmetry at the surface.

During the last two decades, single-photon emission from two-photon Raman processes has been extensively studied both experimentally and theoretically in atomic as well as in quantum-dot multilevel systems. However, despite theoretical predictions on-demand emission, which is crucial for quantum networking, has not been achieved in experiments yet. Based on the cluster-expansion approach, the authors have performed an in-depth microscopic analysis of the Raman transition in fundamental three-level configurations. They find that excitation-induced destructive quantum interference and Stark shifts of the Raman resonance have to be taken into account in order to close in on on-demand single-photon emission.

Narrow band gap III-V based nanowires are subject to intense research, notably thanks to the exceptional mobility of the carriers. Moreover, due to the strong spin-orbit coupling combined with the ability to host superconductivity, they provide a platform for the realization of Majorana fermions. Here, the authors performed very high field magnetotransport measurements (50T) on InAs nanowires in both longitudinal and perpendicular configuration, giving access, in the quasiballistic regime, to the energy spectrum. The experimental results are supported by band-structure calculations in the tight-binding approximation. Finally, under very strong magnetic field, the authors observed the formation of Landau states and cyclotron orbits in both configurations.

Two-dimensional chiral topological superconductors can be realized in clean quantum anomalous Hall insulators under s-wave superconducting proximity, as is predicted by band theory. Under disorder, random domain walls hosting chiral Majorana fermion arise in space, and conventional band theory becomes invalid. Employing percolation theory and the renormalization group method, the authors show that the disordered system still has a stable chiral topological superconductor phase, and exhibits a half-quantized conductance plateau as a feature. The critical exponents and temperature dependence of the conductance plateau and transitions are obtained, which can be tested by experiment.

Illuminating "spin-polarized" Bloch wave-function projection from degenerate bands in decomposable centrosymmetric lattices

Phys. Rev. B 97, 125434 (2018) - Published 29 March, 2018

As previously explored with sophisticated computational methods, projecting out incomplete components of Bloch wave functions yields ‘states’ that appear to be ‘spin polarized’. Here, the consequences and physical relevance of this so-called hidden spin polarization obtained by wave-function truncation is revealed by inspection of analytically solvable models. Importantly, the limitations and shortcomings of this electronic structure decomposition are illuminated using arguments focused on operator commutativity and broken gauge freedom in degenerate wave-function projection. Moreover, it is shown how surface-sensitive measurements using experimental techniques, such as ARPES, are inevitably convoluted by intrinsic spin splitting of the band structure due to broken inversion symmetry at the surface.
