石墨烯环分数通量周期中的谷极化特征

Signature of valley polarization in fractional flux periodicity of a graphene ring

D. S. L. Abergel, Vadim M. Apalkov, Tapash Chakraborty

摘要:

我们研究了谷极化和库仑相互作用对石墨烯量子环的能谱、持续电流和光吸收的影响。我们表明,相互作用有一个戏剧性的影响的性质的基态作为一个函数的磁通量,并在相反的山谷交换相互作用的情况下,意味着单重态-三重态简并不解除某些状态。由于相互作用而产生的额外的能级交叉(分数通量周期性)直接导致持续电流中的额外步骤和吸收光谱中的复杂结构,这些结构应该是实验上可观察到的。通过改变环的宽度,零场处的基态的性质也可以改变,这在我们讨论的可测量性质中是明显的。

英文摘要:

We have studied the interplay of valley polarization and the Coulomb interaction on the energy spectrum, persistent current, and optical absorption of a graphene quantum ring. We show that the interaction has a dramatic effect on the nature of the ground state as a function of the magnetic flux, and that the absence of the exchange interaction in opposite valleys means that the singlet-triplet degeneracy is not lifted for certain states. The additional level crossings (fractional flux periodicity) due to the interaction directly leads to extra steps in the persistent current and intricate structures in the absorption spectrum that should be experimentally observable. By varying the width of the ring, the nature of the ground state at zero field can be varied as well and this is manifest in the measurable properties we discuss.
