开放系统中拓扑Floquet带的占据

Occupation of topological Floquet bands in open systems

Thomas Iadecola, Titus Neupert, Claudio Chamon

摘要:

Floquet拓扑绝缘体是非相互作用的量子系统,当被时间周期场驱动时,由有效哈密顿量描述,其能带携带非平凡的拓扑不变量。一个长期存在的问题是,是否有可能选择性地填充这些有效能带之一,从而最大限度地提高系统与静态拓扑绝缘体的相似性。我们研究这样的Floquet系统耦合到一个零温度的热库,提供耗散。我们发现,所得到的电子稳态的一般特征在于由一个有限的密度以上的有效基态的激发,即使当驱动有一个小的振幅和/或大的频率。我们讨论了油藏工程在缓解这一问题中的作用。

英文摘要:

Floquet topological insulators are noninteracting quantum systems that, when driven by a time-periodic field, are described by effective Hamiltonians whose bands carry nontrivial topological invariants. A longstanding question concerns the possibility of selectively populating one of these effective bands, thereby maximizing the system's resemblance to a static topological insulator. We study such Floquet systems coupled to a zero-temperature thermal reservoir that provides dissipation. We find that the resulting electronic steady states are generically characterized by a finite density of excitations above the effective ground state, even when the driving has a small amplitude and/or large frequency. We discuss the role of reservoir engineering in mitigating this problem.
