Space Inversion Symmetry Breaking and Pattern Selection in Nonlinear Optics
Pattern formation in nonlinear optical cavities, when an advection-like term is present, is analyzed. This term breaks the space inversion symmetry causing the existence of a regime of convective instabilities, where noise-sustained structures can be found, and changing the pattern orientation and the selected wavevector. The concepts of convective and absolute instability, noise-sustained stru...
متن کاملSpontaneous breaking of rotational symmetry in superconductors.
We show that homogeneous superconductors with broken spin/isospin symmetry lower their energy via a transition to a novel superconducting state where the Fermi surfaces are deformed to a quasiellipsoidal form at zero total momentum of Cooper pairs. In this state, the gain in the condensation energy of the pairs dominates over the loss in the kinetic energy caused by the lowest order (quadrupole...
متن کاملCompositional inversion symmetry breaking in ferroelectric perovskites
Cubic perovskite compounds of the form (A(1/3)A(')(1/3)A(")(1/3))BO3 and A(B(1/3)B(')(1/3)B(")(1/3))O3, in which the differentiated cations form an alternating series of monolayers, are studied using first-principles methods. Such compounds are representative of a possible new class of materials in which ferroelectricity is perturbed by compositional breaking of inversion symmetry. For isovalen...
متن کاملSurface states in superconductors with no inversion symmetry
We consider emergence of the surface bound states for superconductors lacking a center of inversion and compute their energy and the density of states. In such superconductors the Fermi surface is split according to helicity (orientation of electron spin with respect to its momentum), and the superconducting gaps differ in the two helicity bands. Energy and spatial structure of the bound states...
متن کاملRelativistic Crystalline Symmetry Breaking and Anyonic States in Magnetoelectric Superconductors
There exists a connection between the creation of toroidal moments (TM) and the breaking of the one-cell relativistic crystalline symmetry (RCS) associated to any given crystal [1] into which non-trivial magnetoelectric coupling effects (ME) exist [2] . Indeed, in this kind of crystals, any interaction between a charge carrier and an elementary magnetic cell can breaks the RCS of this previous ...
