Topological magnetoelectric effect decay.
We address the influence of realistic disorder and finite doping on the effective magnetic monopole induced near the surface of an ideal topological insulator (TI) by currents that flow in response to a suddenly introduced external electric charge. We show that when the longitudinal conductivity σ(xx)=g(e(2)/h)≠0, the apparent position of a magnetic monopole initially retreats from the TI surfa...
متن کاملTopological properties of microwave magnetoelectric fields.
Collective excitations of electron spins in a ferromagnetic sample dominated by the magnetic dipole-dipole interaction strongly influence the field structure of microwave radiation. A small quasi-two-dimensional ferrite disk with magnetic-dipolar-mode (MDM) oscillation spectra can behave as a source of specific fields in vacuum, termed magnetoelectric (ME) fields. A coupling between the time-va...

متن کاملObservation of the universal magnetoelectric effect in a 3D topological insulator
The electrodynamics of topological insulators (TIs) is described by modified Maxwell's equations, which contain additional terms that couple an electric field to a magnetization and a magnetic field to a polarization of the medium, such that the coupling coefficient is quantized in odd multiples of α/4π per surface. Here we report on the observation of this so-called topological magnetoelectric...
متن کاملAzimuthally unidirectional transport of energy in magnetoelectric fields: topological Lenz’s effect
Magnetic-dipolar modes (MDMs) in a quasi-2D ferrite disc are microwave energy-eigenstate oscillations with topologically distinct structures of rotating fields and unidirectional power-flow circulations. At the first glance, this might seem to violate the law of conservation of an angular momentum, since the microwave structure with an embedded ferrite sample is mechanically fixed. However, an ...
