磁场中的高阶拓扑绝缘体

Higher-order topological insulators in a magnetic field

Y. Otaki, T. Fukui

摘要:

Su-Schriffer-Heeger(SSH)模型的二维(2D)推广用作探索高阶拓扑绝缘体(HOTI)的平台。我们研究了这个模型中的磁场,其中内插两个模型研究到目前为止,零通量和$π$通量每个plaquette。我们发现在Hofstadter蝴蝶中,在$π$通量周围出现了一个宽的间隙,它属于Benalcazar-Bernevig-Hughes(BBH)发现的同一HOTI。事实证明,在弱场制度HOTI可以存在,甚至在一个小的差距断开的更广泛的差距周围$π$通量。为了表征HOTI,我们采用纠缠极化(eP)技术,这是有用的,即使在磁场下的基本四个频带分裂成许多朗道水平。

英文摘要:

Two-dimensional (2D) generalization of the Su-Schriffer-Heeger (SSH) model serves as a platform for exploring higher-order topological insulators (HOTI). We investigate this model in a magnetic field which interpolates two models studied so far with zero flux and $π$ flux per plaquette. We show that in the Hofstadter butterfly there appears a wide gap around the $π$ flux, which belongs to the same HOTI discovered by Benalcazar-Bernevig-Hughes (BBH). It turns out that in a weak field regime HOTI could exist even within a small gap disconnected from the wider gap around $π$ flux. To characterize HOTI, we employ the entanglement polarization (eP) technique which is useful even if the basic four bands split into many Landau levels under a magnetic field.
