无质量狄拉克费米子输运性质的有限差分方法

Finite difference method for transport properties of massless Dirac fermions

J. Tworzydlo, C. W. Groth, C. W. J. Beenakker

摘要:

我们采用有限差分法求解二维无质量狄拉克方程,在格点规范理论的背景下,在石墨烯片或表面上的拓扑绝缘体的导电计算。离散的狄拉克方程保留了一个单一的狄拉克点(没有“费米子加倍“),避免谷间散射以及三角翘曲,并保持单谷时间反演对称性(=辛对称性)在所有的长度尺度和能量-在牺牲非局部有限差分近似的微分算子。通过计算电导率随样品尺寸的变化,证明了辛对称性,得到了由于反局域化而引起的对数增加。我们还计算了样品到样品的电导波动以及散粒噪声功率,并与分析预测进行比较。

英文摘要:

We adapt a finite difference method of solution of the two-dimensional massless Dirac equation, developed in the context of lattice gauge theory, to the calculation of electrical conduction in a graphene sheet or on the surface of a topological insulator. The discretized Dirac equation retains a single Dirac point (no "fermion doubling"), avoids intervalley scattering as well as trigonal warping, and preserves the single-valley time reversal symmetry (= symplectic symmetry) at all length scales and energies -- at the expense of a nonlocal finite difference approximation of the differential operator. We demonstrate the symplectic symmetry by calculating the scaling of the conductivity with sample size, obtaining the logarithmic increase due to antilocalization. We also calculate the sample-to-sample conductance fluctuations as well as the shot noise power, and compare with analytical predictions.
