AI总结:

本文研究拓扑绝缘体表面磁线缺陷诱导的自旋极化一维束缚态,发现其速度和自旋纹理可由面内旋转磁场独立调控,并计算了态密度、自旋积累和电荷电流及其随散射势的阶梯变化规律。

摘要:

我们证明,拓扑绝缘体表面上的磁线缺陷通常支持两个不同的自旋极化和携带电流的一维束缚态分支。我们确定了导致束缚态的磁散射分量。每个分支的速度以及由此决定的自旋纹理,可以通过在表面平面内旋转的磁场独立调节。我们计算了局域总态密度和自旋分辨态密度,以及自旋积累和电荷电流。由束缚态和散射态共同产生的净自旋极化和电流随散射势的静电分量和磁分量呈阶梯式变化,并且可以通过外加场进行调节。我们讨论了束缚态对杂质散射的稳定性。

英文摘要:

We show that a magnetic line defect on the surface of a topological insulator generically supports two distinct branches of spin-polarized and current carrying one-dimensional bound states. We identify the components of magnetic scattering that lead to the bound states. The velocity, and hence spin texture, of each of those branches can be independently tuned by a magnetic field rotated in the plane of the surface. We compute the local net and spin-resolved density of states as well as spin accumulation and charge currents. The net spin polarization and current due to both bound and scattering states vary stepwise as a function of the electrostatic and magnetic components of the scattering potential, and can be tuned by an applied field. We discuss stability of the bound states with respect to impurity scattering.
