周期驱动高阶Weyl半金属的铰链模动力学

Hinge mode dynamics of periodically driven higher-order Weyl semimetals

Somsubhra Ghosh, Kush Saha, K. Sengupta

摘要:

我们研究了离散(方脉冲)和连续(余弦)周期性驱动协议的中间驱动频率制度中的立方晶格上的紧束缚自由费米子哈密顿量建模的二阶拓扑材料的铰链模式的频闪动力学。我们分析了该系统的Floquet相位,并表明其准能谱在特定的驱动频率下在大驱动振幅区几乎是无隙的。远离这些频率,缺口quasienergy频谱支持弱分散Floquet铰链模式。在它们附近,这些铰链模式渗透到体中,并最终变得与体模难以区分。我们提供了一个分析,虽然微扰,表达的Floquet哈密顿Floquet微扰理论(FPT)解释了这种现象,并导致这些特殊的频率的解析表达式。我们还表明,在大驱动振幅制度,零能量铰链模式对应的静态紧束缚哈密顿量显示定性不同的动态在这些特殊的频率。我们讨论了可能的局域态密度测量使用扫描隧道显微镜,可以测试我们的理论。

英文摘要:

We study the stroboscopic dynamics of hinge modes of a second-order topological material modeled by a tight-binding free fermion Hamiltonian on a cubic lattice in the intermediate drive frequency regime for both discrete (square pulse) and continuous (cosine) periodic drive protocols. We analyze the Floquet phases of this system and show that its quasienergy spectrum becomes almost gapless in the large drive amplitude regime at special drive frequencies. Away from these frequencies, the gapped quasienergy spectrum supports weakly dispersing Floquet hinge modes. Near them, these hinge modes penetrate into the bulk and eventually become indistinguishable from the bulk modes. We provide an analytic, albeit perturbative, expression for the Floquet Hamiltonian using Floquet perturbation theory (FPT) which explains this phenomenon and leads to analytic expressions of these special frequencies. We also show that in the large drive amplitude regime, the zero energy hinge modes corresponding to the static tight-binding Hamiltonian display qualitatively different dynamics at these special frequencies. We discuss possible local density of state measurement using a scanning tunneling microscope which can test our theory.
