Hubbard-like Hamiltonians for interacting electrons in $s, p$ , and $d$ orbitals

M. E. A. Coury, S. L. Dudarev, W. M. C. Foulkes, A. P. Horsfield, Pui-Wai Ma, and J. S. Spencer

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075101 (2016) - Published 1 February, 2016

The multiorbital Hubbard model Hamiltonian is relevant to a host of strongly correlated materials, but there is no consistently accepted form for it. This manuscript derives the most general model Hamiltonian with $s$ , $p$ , and $d$ -shell electrons and also identifies new terms describing pair hopping and quadrupole effects that were missed previously.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Combined first-principles and model Hamiltonian study of the perovskite series $R MnO_{3}$ $(R = La, \Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu$ , and $Gd)$

Roman Kováčik, Sowmya Sathyanarayana Murthy, Carmen E. Quiroga, Claude Ederer, and Cesare Franchini

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075139 (2016) - Published 19 February, 2016

Understanding the electronic and magnetic properties of 3 $d$ transition-metal perovskites is one of the central issues in solid state theory. The physics at play here, involving electron localization and spin/orbital-ordering, is not easily captured by standard theories. By applying a combination of a variety of first-principles methods (DFT, HSE, GW), effective electronic Hamiltonian and Heisenberg spin Hamiltonian the authors study the manganite family $R$ MnO $_{3}$ ( $R$ =La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, and Gd) characterized by a progressive enhancement of the orthorhombic distortion which causes an $A$ -type to $E$ -type magnetic transition. This study provides a comprehensive and accurate account of the dependence of the electronic structure and Néel temperature on the structural distortions. In particular, it is shown that the Coulomb repulsion and the Jahn-Teller coupling strength remain unchanged along the series, and are not responsible for the observed transition. Rather, the orthorhombic distortions induces a progressive reduction of the nearest-neighbor hopping term (kinetic) and a concomitant attenuation of the FM in-plane exchange interaction: this induces a a gradual destabilization of the $A$ -type AFM ordering. Monte Carlo simulations predict Néel temperatures in very good agreement with experiment.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Fully relativistic multiple scattering calculations for general potentials

H. Ebert, J. Braun, D. Ködderitzsch, and S. Mankovsky

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075145 (2016) - Published 23 February, 2016

Spin-orbit coupling gives rise to many interesting phenomena in solids and at surfaces as, for example, the Rashba splitting or the occurrence of the topological surface states in topological insulators. In addition, many technically important properties such as transverse charge and spin conductivities and magnetodichroic phenomena occur due to spin-orbit coupling. To provide a flexible and accurate basis to deal with these phenomena, the authors worked out a coherent scheme to construct the electronic Green function within multiple scattering theory for a general potential. This includes, in particular, the case of a nonlocal and complex potential to account for correlation effects to set up, for example, the framework of dynamical mean field theory. Various technical issues such as the need to distinguish left- and right-handed solutions and their relation to symmetry are discussed in detail.

Emergence of integer quantum Hall effect from chaos

Chushun Tian, Yu Chen, and Jiao Wang

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075403 (2016) - Published 1 February, 2016

Quantum kicked rotor (QKR) is a standard model of chaos that describes a particle moving on a ring under time-modulated kicking. This paper demonstrates that a large class of spin- $\frac{1}{2}$ quasiperiodic QKR models exhibits a dynamical analog of the integer quantum Hall effect, which is usually associated with two-dimensional electronic systems. Additionally, the authors reveal that the topological theta angle, a fundamental concept in quantum chromodynamics, can emerge in QKR models.

Scattering matrix invariants of Floquet topological insulators

I. C. Fulga and M. Maksymenko

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075405 (2016) - Published 2 February, 2016

The authors show that static and Floquet topological insulators can be described (classified) by a unified-framework scattering theory, even when bulk Floquet bands fail to capture the topological nature of a phase. The paper introduces and characterizes for the first time invariants of weak topological Floquet insulators in two dimensions. This should help motivate research into Floquet weak topological insulators and Floquet topological crystalline insulators, fields which are largely unexplored.

Terahertz ratchet effects in graphene with a lateral superlattice

P. Olbrich, J. Kamann, M. König, J. Munzert, L. Tutsch, J. Eroms, D. Weiss, Ming-Hao Liu (劉明豪), L. E. Golub, E. L. Ivchenko, V. V. Popov, D. V. Fateev, K. V. Mashinsky, F. Fromm, Th. Seyller, and S. D. Ganichev

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075422 (2016) - Published 12 February, 2016

This paper reports on the experimental realization of ratchet effects in graphene, excited by alternating electric fields of terahertz frequency range. Such ratchet effects were previously seen in semiconductors. Two types of graphene lateral superlattices are studied: epitaxially grown and exfoliated graphene with an asymmetric lateral periodic potential. Laser radiation shining on the modulated devices results in the excitation of a direct electric current being sensitive to the radiation’s polarization state. This ratchet current consists of a few linearly independent contributions including the Seebeck thermoratchet effect as well as “linear” and “circular” ratchets. The results are analyzed with a theoretical model. Further development of the theory is required for a quantitative analysis.

Transport in inhomogeneous quantum critical fluids and in the Dirac fluid in graphene

Andrew Lucas, Jesse Crossno, Kin Chung Fong, Philip Kim, and Subir Sachdev

Phys. Rev. B 93, 075426 (2016) - Published 16 February, 2016

The possibility of observing a strongly interacting quantum critical fluid of electrons in a metal has intrigued physicists for a long time. The authors combine insight from string theory and condensed matter physics to develop a hydrodynamic theory of the thermal and electrical conductivity of electron fluids. They use this formalism to explain experimental data from a novel state of Dirac electron fluid in clean samples of graphene near the charge neutrality point, and observe substantially improved quantitative agreement over the existing hydrodynamic theories. This study marks the first quantitative connection between these exotic models of transport and experimentally realizable condensed matter systems.
