Anomalous Hall effect in paramagnetic two-dimensional systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the possibility of observing the anomalous Hall effect in paramagnetic two-dimensional systems. We apply the semiclassical equations of motion to carriers in the conduction and valence bands of wurtzite and zinc-blende quantum wells in the exchange field generated by magnetic impurities and we calculate the anomalous Hall conductivity based on the Berry phase corrections to the carrier velocity. We show that under certain circumstances, this conductivity approaches one-half of the conductance quantum. We consider the effect of an external magnetic field and show that for a small enough field the theory is unaltered.

Observation of anomalous Hall effect in a non-magnetic two-dimensional electron system
Anomalous Hall effect, a manifestation of Hall effect occurring in systems without time-reversal symmetry, has been mostly observed in ferromagnetically ordered materials. However, its realization in high-mobility two-dimensional electron system remains elusive, as the incorporation of magnetic moments deteriorates the device performance compared to non-doped structure. Here we observe systemat...
متن کاملTunable anomalous Hall effect in a nonferromagnetic system.
We measure the low-field Hall resistivity of a magnetically doped two-dimensional electron gas as a function of temperature and electrically gated carrier density. Comparing these results with the carrier density extracted from Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations reveals an excess Hall resistivity that increases with decreasing temperature. This excess Hall resistivity qualitatively tracks the param...
متن کاملTheory of the phonon Hall effect in paramagnetic dielectrics.
Based upon Raman spin-lattice interaction, we propose a theoretical model for the phonon Hall effect in paramagnetic dielectrics, which was discovered recently in an experiment [C. Strohm, G. L. J. A. Rikken, and P. Wyder, Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 155901 (2005).]. The phonon Hall effect is revealed to be a phonon analogue to the anomalous Hall effect in electron systems. The thermal Hall conductivi...
متن کاملIn-plane magnetization-induced quantum anomalous Hall effect.
The quantum Hall effect can only be induced by an out-of-plane magnetic field for two-dimensional electron gases, and similarly, the quantum anomalous Hall effect has also usually been considered for systems with only out-of-plane magnetization. In the present work, we predict that the quantum anomalous Hall effect can be induced by in-plane magnetization that is not accompanied by any out-of-p...
متن کاملAbsence of skew scattering in two-dimensional systems: testing the origins of the anomalous Hall effect.
We study the anomalous Hall conductivity in spin-polarized, asymmetrically confined two-dimensional electron and hole systems, taking into account the intrinsic, side-jump, and skew-scattering contributions to the transport. We find that the skew scattering, principally responsible for the extrinsic contribution to the anomalous Hall effect, vanishes for the two-dimensional electron system if b...
