在多轨道正方晶格系统中寻找拓扑密度波绝缘体

Searching for topological density wave insulators in multi-orbital square lattice systems

Bohm-Jung Yang, Hae-Young Kee

摘要:

研究了二维多轨道系统中平移对称破缺密度波态的拓扑性质,重点研究了正方晶格中的t $_{2g}$轨道。由于d轨道的独特对称性,可以实现具有晶格对称性保护的狄拉克点的节点电荷或自旋密度波态。当在节点密度波态中引入一个具有相反反射对称性的附加序参量时,系统可以完全带隙,从而形成带状绝缘体。其中,拓扑密度波(TDW)绝缘体可以实现时,一个有效的交错的现场电位产生的间隙的一对狄拉克点连接的反演对称,具有相同的拓扑绕组数。我们还提出了一个平均场相图的各种密度波状态,并讨论我们的结果的实验意义。

英文摘要:

We study topological properties of density wave states with broken translational symmetry in two-dimensional multi-orbital systems with a particular focus on t$_{2g}$ orbitals in square lattice. Due to distinct symmetry properties of d-orbitals, a nodal charge or spin density wave state with Dirac points protected by lattice symmetries can be achieved. When an additional order parameter with opposite reflection symmetry is introduced to a nodal density wave state, the system can be fully gapped leading to a band insulator. Among those, topological density wave (TDW) insulators can be realized, when an effective staggered on-site potential generates a gap to a pair of Dirac points connected by the inversion symmetry which have the same topological winding numbers. We also present a mean-field phase diagram for various density wave states, and discuss experimental implications of our results.
