A macroscopic persistent current generation by merons in a spin density wave ordered state

چکیده

We show that a stable spontaneous current appears in a system of a spin density wave order with merons, vortices in the spin configuration with winding number +1. A meron in the spin density wave order modifies the boundary condition for eigenfunctions around it to a sign-change one. As a consequence, two types of stable current states, one with a clockwise circulation and the other with a counterclockwise one, arise. When a magnetic field is present, one produces a diamagnetic current is chosen. A collection of such currents results in a large diamagnetic current; and if the meron density is sufficiently large, a perfect diamagnetism is realized. The stability of this diamagnetic current is attributed to the topological nature of the merons, and as long as the distribution of the merons remains the same the current will persist even in a macroscopic system.

Multi- Q hexagonal spin density waves and dynamically generated spin-orbit coupling: Time-reversal invariant analog of the chiral spin density wave

We study hexagonal spin-channel (“triplet”) density waves with commensurate M-point propagation vectors. We first show that the three Q = M components of the singlet charge density and charge-current density waves can be mapped to multicomponent Q = 0 nonzero angular momentum order in three dimensions (3D) with cubic crystal symmetry. This one-to-one correspondence is exploited to define a symm...

Addition spectrum, persistent current, and spin polarization in coupled quantum dot arrays: Coherence, correlation, and disorder

The ground-state persistent current and electron addition spectrum in two-dimensional quantum dot arrays and one-dimensional quantum dot rings, pierced by an external magnetic flux, are investigated using the extended Hubbard model. The collective multidot problem is shown to map exactly into the strong-field noninteracting finite-size Hofstadter butterfly problem at the spin polarization trans...

In this study, the effect of four-spin exchanges between the nearest and next nearest neighbor spins of honeycomb lattice on the phase diagram of S=3/2 antiferomagnetic Heisenberg model is considered with two-spin exchanges between the nearest and next nearest neighbor spins. Firstly, the method is investigated with classical phase diagram. In classical phase diagram, in addition to Neel order,...

Transient Spin Density Wave Order Induced in the Normal State of BaFe2As2 by Coherent Lattice Oscillations

We trace the ultrafast dynamics of the spin density wave gap of the pnictide system BaFe2As2 probing resonantly with broadband multi-terahertz pulses. The photoexcitation in the low-temperature ground state leads to a fast suppression of the spin order followed by a slower recovery process. Surprisingly, in the normal state, we observe periodic oscillations of the spin density wave feature at a...
