Dark modes and field enhancements in dielectric dimers illuminated by cylindrical vector beams

Tanya Das and Jon A. Schuller

Phys. Rev. B 95, 201111(R) (2017) - Published 22 May, 2017

Dielectric antennas possess a complex multipolar response comprising both electric and magnetic resonances. These various modes can be selectively enhanced or suppressed using illumination beams of varying symmetries. However, such demonstrations are currently limited to single-particle antennas. Here, the authors address this issue with a theoretical study of dielectric dimer antennas illuminated by cylindrical vector beams (CVBs). They excite and study hybridized multipolar resonances in both horizontal and vertical dimer systems and show how the different beam symmetries of CVBs can selectively excite electric and magnetic modes in vertical systems, as well as couple to dark multipolar modes. The authors design an antenna system that yields unprecedented magnetic field enhancement and establishes the dielectric dimer antenna as a useful test bed for further experimental investigation.

Many-body topological invariants in fermionic symmetry-protected topological phases: Cases of point group symmetries

Ken Shiozaki, Hassan Shapourian, and Shinsei Ryu

Phys. Rev. B 95, 205139 (2017) - Published 25 May, 2017

Finding suitable nonlocal order parameters that distinguish various symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases is an important subject in view of experimental and numerical detection of SPT phases. By “simulating” the generating manifold of cobordism group in the operator formalism, the authors here propose nonlocal operations as diagnoses for SPT phases protected by point group symmetries. The nonlocal operations involve “partial point group transformations”, which are obtained by point group transformations restricted to a spatial subregion on a given ground-state wave function. Through analytical and numerical calculations, the authors show that the complex U(1) phase of the ground state expectation value of such partial point group transformations may serve as an order parameter for those SPT phases. The examples in the paper include the Z8 and Z16 invariants of topological superconductors protected by inversion symmetry in (1+1) and (3+1) dimensions, respectively, as well as the lens space topological invariants in (2+1)-dimensional fermionic topological phases.

First-principles analysis of electron transport in BaSnO3

Karthik Krishnaswamy, Burak Himmetoglu, Youngho Kang, Anderson Janotti, and Chris G. Van de Walle

Phys. Rev. B 95, 205202 (2017) - Published 15 May, 2017

Transparent conducting oxides are used in a wide variety of applications, including solar cells and displays. Recently, the perovskite oxide BaSnO3 was demonstrated to be a superior material, with a carrier mobility that is 30 times larger than that of the prototypical perovskite oxide, SrTiO3. This outstanding value has opened up prospects for applications in advanced electronic devices. Using accurate first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport theory, the authors perform a careful and detailed numerical analysis of the LO phonon and ionized impurity scattering mechanisms to elucidate their impact on mobility. They also compute the Hall factor explicitly, enabling a direct comparison to experimental reports of Hall mobilities for bulk and thin films. The analysis provides insights into the nature of the dominant mechanisms that limit mobility in state-of-the-art samples, and will aid the design of perovskite oxides with targeted transport properties.

Experimental metrology to obtain thermal phonon transmission coefficients at solid interfaces

Chengyun Hua, Xiangwen Chen, Navaneetha K. Ravichandran, and Austin J. Minnich

Phys. Rev. B 95, 205423 (2017) - Published 17 May, 2017

Interfaces between solids play a key role in heat conduction by phonons in applications ranging from heat dissipation in light-emitting diodes to waste heat recovery with thermoelectric devices. Despite their importance, our understanding of thermal phonon transport across interfaces lags far behind that of electrons and photons, with basic parameters such as transmission coefficients being largely unknown. In this work, the authors demonstrate an experimental approach that enables the measurement of phonon transmission coefficients at solid interfaces using experiments and ab initio computation. This work provides a unique microscopic window into the microscopic processes governing interfacial transport of terahertz-frequency thermal phonons that could impact numerous applications.

Finding suitable nonlocal order parameters that distinguish various symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases is an important subject in view of experimental and numerical detection of SPT phases. By “simulating” the generating manifold of cobordism group in the operator formalism, the authors here propose nonlocal operations as diagnoses for SPT phases protected by point group symmetries. The nonlocal operations involve “partial point group transformations”, which are obtained by point group transformations restricted to a spatial subregion on a given ground-state wave function. Through analytical and numerical calculations, the authors show that the complex U(1) phase of the ground state expectation value of such partial point group transformations may serve as an order parameter for those SPT phases. The examples in the paper include the Z8 and Z16 invariants of topological superconductors protected by inversion symmetry in (1+1) and (3+1) dimensions, respectively, as well as the lens space topological invariants in (2+1)-dimensional fermionic topological phases.

Phys. Rev. B 95, 205202 (2017) - Published 15 May, 2017

Transparent conducting oxides are used in a wide variety of applications, including solar cells and displays. Recently, the perovskite oxide BaSnO3 was demonstrated to be a superior material, with a carrier mobility that is 30 times larger than that of the prototypical perovskite oxide, SrTiO3. This outstanding value has opened up prospects for applications in advanced electronic devices. Using accurate first-principles calculations and Boltzmann transport theory, the authors perform a careful and detailed numerical analysis of the LO phonon and ionized impurity scattering mechanisms to elucidate their impact on mobility. They also compute the Hall factor explicitly, enabling a direct comparison to experimental reports of Hall mobilities for bulk and thin films. The analysis provides insights into the nature of the dominant mechanisms that limit mobility in state-of-the-art samples, and will aid the design of perovskite oxides with targeted transport properties.

Phys. Rev. B 95, 205423 (2017) - Published 17 May, 2017

Interfaces between solids play a key role in heat conduction by phonons in applications ranging from heat dissipation in light-emitting diodes to waste heat recovery with thermoelectric devices. Despite their importance, our understanding of thermal phonon transport across interfaces lags far behind that of electrons and photons, with basic parameters such as transmission coefficients being largely unknown. In this work, the authors demonstrate an experimental approach that enables the measurement of phonon transmission coefficients at solid interfaces using experiments and ab initio computation. This work provides a unique microscopic window into the microscopic processes governing interfacial transport of terahertz-frequency thermal phonons that could impact numerous applications.
