摘要:

手征反常是拓扑非平凡规范场抽运的手征电荷的不守恒现象,已被预言存在于Weyl半金属中。然而,到目前为止,这种效应的实验特征完全依赖于在低温下观察到的负纵向磁阻。在这里,我们报告了场调制的手征电荷泵过程和谷扩散在Cd3As2。除了传统的负磁电阻,我们观察到一个不寻常的非局部响应与负场依赖性高达室温,起源于谷极化的扩散。此外,还发现了平行电场和磁场产生的大的磁光克尔效应。这些新的实验方法提供了一个定量分析的手征异常现象,这是以前无法实现的。室温下操纵拓扑半金属谷极化的能力为理解其基本性质和利用手征费米子开辟了一条全新的途径。

英文摘要:

Chiral anomaly, a non-conservation of chiral charge pumped by the topological nontrivial gauge fields, has been predicted to exist in Weyl semimetals. However, until now, the experimental signature of this effect exclusively relies on the observation of negative longitudinal magnetoresistance at low temperatures. Here, we report the field-modulated chiral charge pumping process and valley diffusion in Cd3As2. Apart from the conventional negative magnetoresistance, we observe an unusual nonlocal response with negative field dependence up to room temperature, originating from the diffusion of valley polarization. Furthermore, a large magneto-optic Kerr effect generated by parallel electric and magnetic fields is detected. These new experimental approaches provide a quantitative analysis of the chiral anomaly phenomenon which is inaccessible previously. The ability to manipulate the valley polarization in topological semimetal at room temperature opens up a brand-new route towards understanding its fundamental properties and utilizing the chiral fermions.
