Based on a unified semiclassical theoretical approach, it is shown that the total anomalous Hall conductivity can be expressed as the sum of three distinct contributions in the presence of these competing spin-orbit interactions, namely an intrinsic contribution determined by the Berry curvature in the momentum space, an extrinsic contribution determined by the modified Bloch band group velocity and an extrinsic contribution determined by spin-orbit-dependent impurity scattering. The characteristics of these competing contributions are discussed in detail in the paper.展开更多

Using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and ab initio calculation, we investigate the electronic structure of Cu_(2)TlX_(2)(X = Se, Te), ternary transition metal chalcogenides with quasi-two-dimensional crystal structure. The band dispersions near the Fermi level are mainly contributed by the Te/Se p orbitals. According to our ab-initio calculation, the electronic structure changes from a semiconductor with indirect band gap in Cu_(2)TlSe_(2) to a semimetal in Cu_(2)TlTe_(2), suggesting a band-gap tunability with the composition of Se and Te. By comparing ARPES experimental data with the calculated results, we identify strong modulation of the band structure by spin–orbit coupling in the compounds. Our results provide a ternary platform to study and engineer the electronic properties of transition metal chalcogenides related to large spin–orbit coupling.展开更多

More specially, we also perform a detailed study of the dependence of soft-core interaction on the Rydberg blockade radius at the point of rotational symmetry breaking. Our results show that under the combined effects of such parameters, the ground state shows a threefold-degenerate magnetized state for ferromagnetic spin interaction, while a variety of lattice phases for antiferromagnetic spin interaction.展开更多

Th...With an extended Su–Schrieffer–Heeger model and Green's function method, the spin–orbit coupling(SOC) effects on spin admixture of electronic states and quantum transport in organic devices are investigated. The role of lattice distortion induced by the strong electron–lattice interaction in organics is clarified in contrast with a uniform chain. The results demonstrate an enhanced SOC effect on the spin admixture of frontier eigenstates by the lattice distortion at a larger SOC,which is explained by the perturbation theory. The quantum transport under the SOC is calculated for both nonmagnetic and ferromagnetic electrodes. A more notable SOC effect on total transmission and current is observed for ferromagnetic electrodes, where spin filtering induced by spin-flipped transmission and suppression of magnetoresistance are obtained.Unlike the spin admixture, a stronger SOC effect on transmission exists for the uniform chain rather than the organic lattices with distortion. The reason is attributed to the modified spin-polarized conducting states in the electrodes by lattice configuration, and hence the spin-flip transmission, instead of the spin admixture of eigenstates. This work is helpful to understand the SOC effect in organic spin valves in the presence of lattice distortion.展开更多

The competition between gradient magnetic field, spin-orbit coupling and rotation leads to a variety of ground-state phase structures. In the weakly rotation regime, as the increase of gradient magnetic field strength, the BECs experiences a phase transition from the unstable phase to the single vortex-line phase. The unstable phase presents the vortex lines structures along the off-diagonal direction. With magnetic field gradient strength increasing, the number of vortex lines changes accordingly. As the magnetic field gradient strength increases further, the single vortex-line phase with a single vortex line along the diagonal direction is formed. The phase diagram shows that the boundary between the two phases is linear with the relative repulsion λ?≥?1 and is nonlinear with λ?展开更多

Due to the unstable nature and heavy atom Cd containing in the Cd F molecule, electronic states of the molecule have not been well studied. In this paper, high accurate ab initio calculations on the Cd F molecule have been performed at the multi-reference configuration interaction level including Davidson correction（MRCI ＋ Q）. Adiabatic potential energy curves（PECs） of the 14 low-lying Λ–S states correlating with the two lowest dissociation limits Cd（~1S_g） ＋ F（~2P_u） and Cd（~3P_u） ＋ F（~2P_u） have been constructed. For the bound Λ–S and ？ states, the dominant electronic configurations and spectroscopic constants are obtained,and the calculated spectroscopic constants of bound states are consistent with previous experimental results. The dipole moments（DMs） of 2 Σ＋ and 2Π are determined, and the spin–orbit（SO） matrix elements between each pair of X2Σ＋, 22Σ＋, 12Π, and 22Π are obtained. The results indicate that the sudden changes of DMs and SO matrix elements arise from the variation of the electronic configurations around the avoided crossing region. Moreover,the Franck–Condon factors（FCFs）, the transition dipole moments（TDMs）, and radiative lifetimes of low-lying states-the ground state X2Σ＋are determined. Finally, the transitional properties of 22Π–X2Σ＋and 22Σ＋–X2Σ＋are studied. Based on our computed spectroscopic information of Cd F, the feasibility and challenge for laser cooling of Cd F molecule are discussed.展开更多

Highly accurate numerical calculations have been carried out using a finite element method. Our results reveal that the interplay between the spin-orbit interaction and the effective magnetic field significantly modifies the band structure, producing additional subband extrema and energy gaps. Competing effects between external field and spin-orbit interactions introduce comp｜ex features in spin texturing owing to the couplings in energy subbands. We obtain that spatia~ modulation of the spin density along the wire width can be considerably modified by the spin-orbit coupling strength, magnetic field and charge carrier concentration.展开更多

Here we investigate the effect of the Rydberg-dressing interaction on the ground-state properties of a Bose–Einstein condensate imposed by Raman-induced spin–orbit coupling. We find that,in the case of SU（2）-invariant s-wave interactions, the gas is only in the plane-wave phase and the zero-momentum phase is absent. In particular, we also predict an unexpected magnetic stripe phase composed of two plane-wave components with unequal weight when s-wave interactions are non-symmetric, which originates from the Rydberg-dressing interaction.展开更多

By using the hyperbolic sine function as the trial function to describe a plane wave bright soliton with a single finite momentum, we have derived the motion equations of soliton's spin and center of mass, and obtained its exact analytical solutions. Our results show that the spin–orbit coupling couples the soliton's spin with its center-of-mass motion, the spin oscillations induced by the exchange of atoms between components result in the periodical oscillation of center-of-mass, and the motion of center of mass of soliton can be viewed as a superposition of periodical and linear motions. Our analytical results have also been confirmed by the direct numerical simulations of Gross–Pitaevskii equations.展开更多

Based on the mean field theory, we obtained the zero temperature phase diagram of the system which exhibits three phases, plane wave（PW） phase, striped wave（SW） phase, and zero momentum（ZM） phase. It was shown that with a growing in-plane field,both SW and ZM phases will eventually turn into the PW phase. Furthermore, we adopted the Bogoliubov theory to study the excitation spectrum as well as the sound speed.展开更多

文摘We study the ground-state phases of two-dimensional rotating spin-orbit coupled spin-1/2 Bose-Einstein condensates(BECs) in a gradient magnetic field. The competition between gradient magnetic field, spin-orbit coupling and rotation leads to a variety of ground-state phase structures. In the weakly rotation regime, as the increase of gradient magnetic field strength, the BECs experiences a phase transition from the unstable phase to the single vortex-line phase. The unstable phase presents the vortex lines structures along the off-diagonal direction. With magnetic field gradient strength increasing, the number of vortex lines changes accordingly. As the magnetic field gradient strength increases further, the single vortex-line phase with a single vortex line along the diagonal direction is formed. The phase diagram shows that the boundary between the two phases is linear with the relative repulsion λ?≥?1 and is nonlinear with λ?

文摘Strong‘spin’–orbit coupled one-dimensional hole gas is achievable in a Ge nanowire in the presence of a strong magnetic field.The strong magnetic field lifts the two-fold degeneracy in the hole subband dispersions,so that the effective low-energy subband dispersion exhibits strong spin–orbit coupling.Here,we study the electrical spin manipulation in a Ge nanowire quantum dot for both the lowest and second lowest hole subband dispersions.Using a finite square well to model the quantum dot confining potential,we calculate exactly the level splitting of the spin–orbit qubit and the Rabi frequency in the electric-dipole spin resonance.The spin–orbit coupling modulated longitudinal g-factor gso is not only non-vanishing but also magnetic field dependent.Moreover,the spin–orbit couplings of the lowest and second lowest subband dispersions have opposite magnetic dependences,so that the results for these two subband dispersions are totally different.It should be noticed that we focus only on the properties of the hole‘spin’instead of the real hole spin.

文摘Interaction between Rydberg atoms can be used to control the properties of interatomic interaction in ultracold gases by weakly dressing the atoms with a Rydberg state. Here we investigate the effect of the Rydberg-dressing interaction on the ground-state properties of a Bose–Einstein condensate imposed by Raman-induced spin–orbit coupling. We find that,in the case of SU（2）-invariant s-wave interactions, the gas is only in the plane-wave phase and the zero-momentum phase is absent. In particular, we also predict an unexpected magnetic stripe phase composed of two plane-wave components with unequal weight when s-wave interactions are non-symmetric, which originates from the Rydberg-dressing interaction.

文摘We have investigated the dynamics of bright solitons in a spin–orbit coupled spin-1 Bose–Einstein condensate analytically and numerically. By using the hyperbolic sine function as the trial function to describe a plane wave bright soliton with a single finite momentum, we have derived the motion equations of soliton's spin and center of mass, and obtained its exact analytical solutions. Our results show that the spin–orbit coupling couples the soliton's spin with its center-of-mass motion, the spin oscillations induced by the exchange of atoms between components result in the periodical oscillation of center-of-mass, and the motion of center of mass of soliton can be viewed as a superposition of periodical and linear motions. Our analytical results have also been confirmed by the direct numerical simulations of Gross–Pitaevskii equations.

文摘We studied the system of pure Rashba spin–orbit coupled Bose gas with an in-plane magnetic field. Based on the mean field theory, we obtained the zero temperature phase diagram of the system which exhibits three phases, plane wave（PW） phase, striped wave（SW） phase, and zero momentum（ZM） phase. It was shown that with a growing in-plane field,both SW and ZM phases will eventually turn into the PW phase. Furthermore, we adopted the Bogoliubov theory to study the excitation spectrum as well as the sound speed.

文摘We numerically investigate the gap solitons in Bose–Einstein condensates(BECs)with spin–orbit coupling(SOC)in the parity–time(PT)-symmetric periodic potential.We find that the depths and periods of the imaginary lattice have an important influence on the shape and stability of these single-peak gap solitons and double-peak gap solitons in the first band gap.The dynamics of these gap solitons are checked by the split-time-step Crank–Nicolson method.It is proved that the depths of the imaginary part of the PT-symmetric periodic potential gradually increase,and the gap solitons become unstable.But the different periods of imaginary part hardly affect the stability of the gap solitons in the corresponding parameter interval.

文摘We present numerical results of a one-dimensional spin–orbit coupled Bose–Einstein condensate expanding in a speckle disorder potential by employing the Gross–Pitaevskii equation.Localization properties of a spin–orbit coupled Bose–Einstein condensate in zero-momentum phase,magnetic phase and stripe phase are studied.It is found that the localizing behavior in the zero-momentum phase is similar to the normal Bose–Einstein condensate.Moreover,in both magnetic phase and stripe phase,the localization length changes non-monotonically as the fitting interval increases.In magnetic phases,the Bose–Einstein condensate will experience spin relaxation in disorder potential.

文摘We study the ferromagnetic transition of a two-component homogeneous dipolar Fermi gas with 1D spin-orbit coupling(SOC) at finite temperature.The ferromagnetic transition temperature is obtained as functions of dipolar constantλd,spin-orbit coupling constant λSOC and contact interaction constant λS.It increases monotonically with these three parameters.In the ferromagnetic phase,the Fermi surfaces of different components can be deformed differently.The phase diagrams at finite temperature are obtained.
