单层过渡金属二硫属化物的内禀轨道和自旋霍尔效应

Intrinsic orbital and spin Hall effects in monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides

Sayantika Bhowal, S. Satpathy

摘要:

轨道霍尔效应(OHE)是在外加电场存在下轨道矩横向流动的现象。由于在布里渊区中的各个动量点处存在固有轨道矩,具有破缺的反转对称性的固体预期表现出强OHE,所述固有轨道矩在施加的电场存在下在不同方向上流动,从而引起净轨道霍尔电流。在这里,我们提供了一个全面的理解的效果和它的可调性在单层二维过渡金属二硫属化物(TMDC)。金属和绝缘TMDC的研究从全密度泛函计算,有效的$d$带紧束缚模型,以及一个最小的四带模型的谷点,捕捉系统的关键物理。对于OHE的调谐,我们研究了空穴掺杂的作用以及能带参数的变化,其中,e。例如,在一个实施例中,可以通过应变来控制。我们证明了OHE是一个比自旋霍尔效应(SHE)更基本的效应,在自旋轨道耦合的存在下,动量-空间轨道矩诱导自旋矩,导致SHE。这里描述的OHE的物理学与一般具有破缺反转对称性的2D材料相关,甚至超出TMDC,为未来的研究提供了广阔的平台。

英文摘要:

Orbital Hall effect (OHE) is the phenomenon of transverse flow of orbital moment in presence of an applied electric field. Solids with broken inversion symmetry are expected to exhibit a strong OHE due to the presence of an intrinsic orbital moment at individual momentum points in the Brillouin zone, which in presence of an applied electric field, flows in different directions causing a net orbital Hall current. Here we provide a comprehensive understanding of the effect and its tunability in the monolayer 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs). Both metallic and insulating TMDCs are investigated from full density-functional calculations, effective $d$-band tight-binding models, as well as a minimal four-band model for the valley points that captures the key physics of the system. For the tuning of the OHE, we examine the role of hole doping as well as the change in the band parameters, which, e. g., can be controlled by strain. We demonstrate that the OHE is a more fundamental effect than the spin Hall effect (SHE), with the momentum-space orbital moments inducing a spin moment in the presence of the spin-orbit coupling, leading to the SHE. The physics of the OHE, described here, is relevant for 2D materials with broken inversion symmetry in general, even beyond the TMDCs, providing a broad platform for future research.
