“带隙石墨烯”的霍尔粘度和非局域导电性

Hall viscosity and nonlocal conductivity of "gapped graphene"

Mohammad Sherafati, Giovanni Vignale

摘要:

我们计算霍尔粘度和非局部(即,依赖于波矢量$\bm q$)在强垂直磁场存在下“带隙石墨烯”(具有两个谷的非拓扑绝缘体)的霍尔电导率。使用线性响应理论在零温度范围内的狄拉克近似的朗道水平,我们提出了谷和总霍尔粘度和电导率高达$\bm q^2$在所有频率的解析表达式。虽然总霍尔粘度和电导率的最终公式与先前获得的无间隙石墨烯相似,但推导揭示了两个系统之间的显着差异。首先,当费米能级位于导带中最低朗道能级与价带中最高朗道能级之间的间隙中时,霍尔粘度和霍尔电导率都消失。只有当费米能级{ \it不在带隙中}时,才能恢复无带隙石墨烯的常见公式。其次,在有间隙的石墨烯的情况下,不可能(至少在我们目前的方法中)定义一个单谷霍尔粘度:这个量以与间隙大小成比例的强度发散。只有当两个谷都包括在内时,在两个谷中具有相反符号的发散项才抵消,并且恢复了熟悉的结果。与此相反,非局部霍尔电导率在每个谷是有限的。这些结果表明,在$q$依赖性霍尔电导率的小$q$展开中,将霍尔粘度与$q^2$的系数联系起来的Hoyos-Son公式不能应用于每个谷,而只能应用于整个系统。定义“谷霍尔粘度”的问题仍然悬而未决。

英文摘要:

We calculate the Hall viscosity and the nonlocal (i.e., dependent on wave vector $\bm q$) Hall conductivity of "gapped graphene" (a non-topological insulator with two valleys) in the presence of a strong perpendicular magnetic field. Using the linear-response theory at zero temperature within the Dirac approximation for the Landau levels, we present analytical expressions for both valley and total Hall viscosity and conductivity up to $\bm q^2$ at all frequencies. Although the final formulas for total Hall viscosity and conductivity are similar to the ones previously obtained for gapless graphene, the derivation reveals a significant difference between the two systems. First of all, both the Hall viscosity and the Hall conductivity vanish when the Fermi level lies in the gap that separates the lowest Landau level in the conduction band from the highest Landau level in the valence band. It is only when the Fermi level {\it is not} in the gap that the familiar formulas of gapless graphene are recovered. Second, in the case of gapped graphene, it is not possible (at least within our present approach) to define a single-valley Hall viscosity: this quantity diverges with a strength proportional to the magnitude of the gap. It is only when both valleys are included that the diverging terms, having opposite signs in the two valleys, cancel out and the familiar result is recovered. In contrast to this, the nonlocal Hall conductivity is finite in each valley. These results indicate that the Hoyos-Son formula connecting the Hall viscosity to the coefficient of $q^2$ in the small-$q$ expansion of the $q$-dependent Hall conductivity cannot be applied to each valley, but only to the system as a whole. The problem of defining a "valley Hall viscosity" remains open.
