Inverse Anderson transition caused by flatbands.

چکیده
We propose a new disorder-induced insulator-metal transition of one-electron states, which may be called the "inverse Anderson transition." We first make a highly degenerated localized states by constructing a three-dimensional periodic system possessing only flat dispersion relations. When we introduce a disorder into it, a finite-size scaling of the level statistics shows two clear (localization-delocalization and delocalization-localization) transitions for a wide range of the energy, with increasing the degree of disorder. These transitions are confirmed also by finding the system-size-independent characteristic of the wave function.

Edge currents as a signature of flatbands in topological superconductors.
We study nondegenerate flatbands at the surfaces of noncentrosymmetric topological superconductors by exact diagonalization of Bogoliubov-de Gennes Hamiltonians. We show that these states are strongly spin polarized and acquire a chiral dispersion when placed in contact with a ferromagnetic insulator. This chiral mode carries a large edge current which displays a singular dependence on the exch...
متن کاملFlatbands under correlated perturbations.
Flatband networks are characterized by the coexistence of dispersive and flatbands. Flatbands (FBs) are generated by compact localized eigenstates (CLSs) with local network symmetries, based on destructive interference. Correlated disorder and quasiperiodic potentials hybridize CLSs without additional renormalization, yet with surprising consequences: (i) states are expelled from the FB energy ...
متن کاملGenotyping of Intron 22 and Intron 1 Inversions of Factor VIII Gene Using an Inverse-Shifting PCR Method in an Iranian Family with Severe Haemophilia A
Abstract Background: Haemophilia A (HA) is an X-linked bleeding disorder caused by the absence or reduced activity of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII). Coagulation factors are a group of related proteins that are essential for the formation of blood clots. The aim of this study was to genotype the coagulation factor VIII gene mutations using Inverse Shifting PCR (IS-PCR) in an Iranian family ...
متن کاملObservation of infinite-range intensity correlations above, at, and below the mobility edges of the 3D Anderson localization transition.
We investigate long-range intensity correlations on both sides of the Anderson transition of classical waves in a three-dimensional disordered material. Our ultrasonic experiments are designed to unambiguously detect a recently predicted infinite-range C0 contribution, due to local density of states fluctuations near the source. We find that these C0 correlations, in addition to C2 and C3 contr...
متن کاملFlatband Localization in the Anderson-falicov-kimball Model
Recent studies have shown a new disorder-induced insulator-metal transition (MIT) of one-electron states, called the ”inverse Anderson transition”. The existence of this transition becomes already visible for noninteracting particles when the system has highly degenerated localized states forming a flatband. In a flatband localized states may melt into extended states due to disorder. For weak ...
