摘要:

本文用格点蒙特卡罗模拟研究了Dirac半金属中的手征磁效应。我们测量了狄拉克半金属的电导率作为外磁场的函数,平行于$σ_{\parallel}$和垂直于外磁场方向的$σ_{\perp}$。模拟进行了三个制度:半金属相,绝缘体相的发病和深在绝缘体相。在半金属相中,$σ_{\parallel}$随着磁场的增加而增加,而$σ_{\perp}$随着磁场的增加而减少。在绝缘体相的开始观察到类似的行为,但电导率较小,其对磁场的依赖性较弱。最后,在绝缘体相中,电导率$σ_{\parallel, \perp}$接近于零并且不依赖于磁场。换句话说,我们观察到CME电流在半金属相中的表现,CME在绝缘体相开始时的较弱表现。我们没有观察到在绝缘体阶段的日冕物质抛射的签名。我们认为绝缘相CME电流的抑制与发生在绝缘相中的手征对称性破缺和动力学费米子质量的产生有关。

英文摘要:

In this paper Chiral Magnetic Effect (CME) in Dirac semimetals is studied by means of lattice Monte Carlo simulation. We measure conductivity of Dirac semimetals as a function of external magnetic field in parallel $σ_{\parallel}$ and perpendicular $σ_{\perp}$ to the external field directions. The simulations are carried out in three regimes: semimetal phase, onset of the insulator phase and deep in the insulator phase. In the semimetal phase $σ_{\parallel}$ grows whereas $σ_{\perp}$ drops with magnetic field. Similar behaviour was observed in the onset of the insulator phase but conductivity is smaller and its dependence on magnetic field is weaker. Finally in the insulator phase conductivities $σ_{\parallel, \perp}$ are close to zero and do not depend on magnetic field. In other words, we observe manifestation of the CME current in the semimetal phase, weaker manifestation of the CME in the onset of the insulator phase. We do not observe signatures of CME in the insulator phase. We believe that the suppression of the CME current in the insulator phase is connected to chiral symmetry breaking and generation of dynamical fermion mass which take place in this phase.
