Sota Kitamura, Naoto Nagaosa, Takahiro Morimoto

摘要:

强电场作用下绝缘体中载流子的产生可用具有非微扰指数的Landau-Zener隧穿几率公式来描述。尽管它有着悠久的历史和不同的应用和扩展,非平衡稳态和相关的电流响应的产生的载流子的存在下的研究主要限于数值模拟到目前为止。在这里,我们开发了一个框架来计算非平衡格林函数的通用绝缘系统下的直流电场,在存在的费米子水库。利用渐近展开技术,我们得到了一个半定量的格林函数的非微扰贡献的公式。这种形式使我们能够计算的非平衡稳态,这原来是不是简单地由带内电流成比例的隧穿概率的耗散电流响应。我们也适用于目前的形式主义的非中心对称绝缘体,并提出非互易电荷和自旋输运特有的隧穿电子。

英文摘要:

The carrier generation in insulators subjected to strong electric fields is characterized by the Landau-Zener formula for the tunneling probability with a nonperturbative exponent. Despite its long history with diverse applications and extensions, study of nonequilibrium steady states and associated current response in the presence of the generated carriers has been mainly limited to numerical simulations so far. Here, we develop a framework to calculate the nonequilibrium Green's function of generic insulating systems under a DC electric field, in the presence of a fermionic reservoir. Using asymptotic expansion techniques, we derive a semi-quantitative formula for the Green's function with nonperturbative contribution. This formalism enables us to calculate dissipative current response of the nonequilibrium steady state, which turns out to be not simply characterized by the intraband current proportional to the tunneling probability. We also apply the present formalism to noncentrosymmetric insulators, and propose nonreciprocal charge and spin transport peculiar to tunneling electrons.
