Classification of gapless $Z_{2}$ spin liquids in three-dimensional Kitaev models

Kevin O'Brien, Maria Hermanns, and Simon Trebst

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085101 (2016) - Published 1 February, 2016

In quantum magnetism, Kitaev’s honeycomb model is well known for its gapped and gapless spin liquid ground states in which the elementary spin degrees of freedom fractionalize into Majorana fermions and a $Z_{2}$ gauge field. In this paper, the authors discuss the gapless spin liquids arising in three-dimensional Kitaev models and show that the gapless Majorana fermions form metallic states which, depending on the underlying lattice structure, exhibit Fermi surfaces, nodal lines, or Weyl points.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Magnetotransport phenomena related to the chiral anomaly in Weyl semimetals

B. Z. Spivak and A. V. Andreev

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085107 (2016) - Published 4 February, 2016

The authors study the contribution of the chiral anomaly to various magnetotransport coefficients in Weyl semimetals. They do so using quasiclassical transport theory taking into account Berry curvature. In this framework, the authors compute the longitudinal conductivity, thermal conductivity, the spectrum of polaritons, and absorption coefficient for sound waves.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Half-filled Landau level, topological insulator surfaces, and three-dimensional quantum spin liquids

Chong Wang and T. Senthil

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085110 (2016) - Published 5 February, 2016

The half-filled Landau level can support a plethora of exotic strongly correlated states. The authors interconnect a recently proposed Dirac particle theory of the half-filled Landau level with the physics of spin liquids and the surface states of topological insulators. Additionally, they suggest that composite fermions can be viewed as dipolar bound states of charge/vortex composites and show that their transport properties violate the conventional Wiedemann-Franz law.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Variational wave functions for the $S = \frac{1}{2}$ Heisenberg model on the anisotropic triangular lattice: Spin liquids and spiral orders

Elaheh Ghorbani, Luca F. Tocchio, and Federico Becca

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085111 (2016) - Published 5 February, 2016

The fate of magnetic ordering in frustrated systems with competing magnetic interactions is a long-standing question in the field of strong electronic correlation. Frustration can lead either to exotic phases that do not order down to zero temperature, the so-called spin liquids, or to spiral magnetism. In this paper, the authors consider a model for spins on the anisotropic triangular lattice, by using variational Monte Carlo, where they treat on the same ground spin liquids and magnetic states with spiral order. Moreover, they perform a systematic analysis of the spin-liquid states that can be constructed on the anisotropic triangular lattice by means of the fermionic projective symmetry group classification. The results allow for determining a complete phase diagram, as a function of the frustration ratio, encompassing different physical behaviors. They are relevant for the description of materials that are characterized by stacked triangular layers, such as charge-transfer salts and the compounds Cs $_{2}$ CuCl $_{4}$ and Cs $_{2}$ CuBr $_{4}$ .

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

$ν = \frac{1}{2}$ Landau level: Half-empty versus half-full

Ganpathy Murthy and R. Shankar

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085405 (2016) - Published 2 February, 2016

Inspired by the recently proposed Dirac composite fermion picture for half-filled Landau level the authors extend previously developed Hamiltonian formalism to incorporate considerations of particle-hole symmetry. They show that the magnetic translation algebra can be represented in the enlarged space of Dirac fermions, with particle-hole symmetry manifestly defined. A Hartree-Fock approximation then leads to a composite Fermi liquid of Dirac fermions.

EDITORS' SUGGESTION

Extrinsic spin Hall effect from anisotropic Rashba spin-orbit coupling in graphene

H.-Y. Yang, Chunli Huang, H. Ochoa, and M. A. Cazalilla

Phys. Rev. B 93, 085418 (2016) - Published 11 February, 2016

The study of the spin Hall effect in graphene is an active field of research, but its experimental realization is proven to be difficult due to the inherently weak intrinsic spin-orbit interaction. Thus, one needs to rely on extrinsic spin-orbit scattering to be able to probe this effect in graphene. The authors of this paper have reported some progress in this direction. They predict that adatoms on graphene can induce an anisotropic Rashba spin-orbit coupling, and the degree of anisotropy has a noticeable effect on the energy dependence of the spin Hall angle.
