三维无质量狄拉克费米子的三阶光学非线性

Third order optical nonlinearity of three dimensional massless Dirac fermions

J. L. Cheng, J. E. Sipe, S. W. Wu

摘要:

本文给出了三维无质量Dirac费米子的线性电导率$σ^{(1)}_{3d}(ω)$和三阶光学电导率$σ^{(3)}_{3d}(ω_1,ω_2,ω_3)$的电子贡献的解析表达式。Dirac费米子是与拓扑Dirac半金属和Weyl半金属的低能激发有关的准粒子。虽然无质量狄拉克费米子不存在能隙,但有限的化学势$μ$可以导致一个有效能隙参数,它对带间光跃迁的定性特征起着重要作用.对于三维无带隙线性色散,线性电导率的虚部发散为截止能量的对数函数,而实部与光子频率$ω$呈线性关系,为$\hbarω>2|μ|$。三阶电导率表现出与二维狄拉克费米子非常相似的特征,即,石墨烯,但是单个狄拉克锥的振幅通常在三维中比在二维中小两个数量级。有许多共振与化学势诱导的间隙参数,和发散与带内跃迁。详细讨论了三阶电导率的三次谐波产生,克尔效应和双光子载流子注入,参量频率转换,双色相干电流注入。虽然我们得到的表达式仅限于零温度下的清洁极限,但在有限温度下包括唯象弛豫过程的推广是直接的,并提出。

英文摘要:

We present analytic expressions for the electronic contributions to the linear conductivity $σ^{(1)}_{3d}(ω)$ and the third order optical conductivity $σ^{(3)}_{3d}(ω_1,ω_2,ω_3)$ of three dimensional massless Dirac fermions, the quasi-particles relevant for the low energy excitation of topological Dirac semimetals and Weyl semimetals. Although there is no gap for massless Dirac fermions, a finite chemical potential $μ$ can lead to an effective gap parameter, which plays an important role in the qualitative features of interband optical transitions. For gapless linear dispersion in three dimension, the imaginary part of the linear conductivity diverges as a logarithmic function of the cutoff energy, while the real part is linear with photon frequency $ω$ as $\hbarω>2|μ|$. The third order conductivity exhibits features very similar to those of two dimensional Dirac fermions, i.e., graphene, but with the amplitude for a single Dirac cone generally two orders of magnitude smaller in three dimension than in two dimension. There are many resonances associated with the chemical potential induced gap parameters, and divergences associated with the intraband transitions. The details of the third order conductivity are discussed for third harmonic generation, the Kerr effect and two-photon carrier injection, parametric frequency conversion, and two-color coherent current injection. Although the expressions we derive are limited to the clean limit at zero temperature, the generalization to include phenomenological relaxation processes at finite temperature is straightforward and is presented.
