AI总结:

本研究揭示了石墨烯超晶格中量子磁振荡与Lifshitz相变的关系,发现源于Aharonov-Bohm干涉的kagomé振荡在低磁场和高温下仍具鲁棒性,为二维晶体中的量子振荡现象提供了新见解。

摘要:

周期性系统具有Hofstadter蝴蝶能谱,该能谱由电子的Brown-Zak微能带产生,当穿过晶格单元胞的磁场磁通与磁通量子相称时形成,并通过磁输运振荡表现出来。量子振荡,如Shubnikov-de Haas效应和Aharonov-Bohm效应,也是具有实空间和倒易空间闭合轨道的电子系统的特征。在此,我们通过追踪石墨烯超晶格中的量子磁振荡与Lifshitz相变的关系,展示了这两种现象之间的复杂联系,这些振荡甚至在相对较低的磁场和远高于液氦温度下依然存在。这些振荡源于回旋轨迹上的Aharonov-Bohm干涉,这些轨迹形成了Lifshitz相变特有的kagomé形网络。与Shubnikov-de Haas振荡不同,kagomé振荡对热展宽具有鲁棒性,即使在Hofstadter蝴蝶能谱因电子散射而受损时也能被检测到。我们预计,kagomé量子振荡在接近Lifshitz相变的旋转对称二维晶体中是普遍存在的。

英文摘要:

Periodic systems feature the Hofstadter butterfly spectrum produced by Brown--Zak minibands of electrons formed when magnetic field flux through the lattice unit cell is commensurate with flux quantum and manifested by magneto-transport oscillations. Quantum oscillations, such as Shubnikov -- de Haas effect and Aharonov--Bohm effect, are also characteristic for electronic systems with closed orbits in real space and reciprocal space. Here we show the intricate relation between these two phenomena by tracing quantum magneto-oscillations to Lifshitz transitions in graphene superlattices, where they persist even at relatively low fields and very much above liquid-helium temperatures. The oscillations originate from Aharonov--Bohm interference on cyclotron trajectories that form a kagomé-shaped network characteristic for Lifshitz transitions. In contrast to Shubnikov - de Haas oscillations, the kagomé oscillations are robust against thermal smearing and they can be detected even when the Hofstadter butterfly spectrum is undermined by electron's scattering. We expect that kagomé quantum oscillations are generic to rotationally-symmetric two-dimensional crystals close to Lifshitz transitions.
