URu2Si2的磁场诱导手征隐序

Magnetic-field-induced chiral hidden order in URu2Si2

P. Kotetes, A. Aperis, G. Varelogiannis

摘要:

URu 2Si 2中隐藏有序(HO)的两个最引人注目但尚未解决的表现,一方面与双阶变磁跃迁有关,另一方面与巨大的异常能斯特信号有关。当沿c轴施加磁场时,观察到这两种情况。在这里,我们提供了第一次统一的理解这些令人困惑的现象和相关的场-温度(B-T)相图。我们证明了在有限场的HO相位可以用手征dxy+ idx 2-y2自旋密度波来解释,假设零场HO只包含时间反演对称性保持idx 2-y2分量。我们认为,在场诱导的手征HO的存在下,可以反映在一个独特的非线性B依赖的克尔角,当克尔实验进行有限场。该指纹可以决定HO中可能出现的手性。

英文摘要:

Two of the most striking and yet unresolved manifestations of the hidden order (HO) in URu2Si2, are associated on one hand with the double-step metamagnetic transitions and on the other with the giant anomalous Nernst signal. Both are observed when a magnetic field is applied along the c-axis. Here we provide for the first time a unified understanding of these puzzling phenomena and the related field-temperature (B-T) phase diagram. We demonstrate that the HO phase at finite fields can be explained with a chiral dxy+idx2-y2 spin density wave, assuming that the zero field HO contains only the time-reversal symmetry preserving idx2-y2 component. We argue that the presence of the field-induced chiral HO can be reflected in a distinctive non-linear B-dependence of the Kerr angle, when a Kerr experiment is conducted for finite fields. This fingerprint can be conclusive for the possible emergence of chirality in the HO.
