摘要:

我们基于Keldysh形式体系提出了一种关于电荷、自旋和轨道扩散的通用理论。研究结果表明,由于晶体中强烈的轨道混合,金属中轨道角动量的扩散率远低于自旋或电荷的扩散率。此外,我们的理论引入了自旋-轨道极化的概念:通过这一机制,纯轨道(自旋)电流会诱导出纵向自旋(轨道)电流,该过程与铁磁体中的自旋极化同样高效。最后,我们发现即使不存在自旋-轨道耦合,轨道电流也会发生动量交换。该理论确立了对实验具有直接重要性的若干轨道输运关键参数。

英文摘要:

We propose a general theory of charge, spin, and orbital diffusion based on Keldysh formalism. Our findings indicate that the diffusivity of orbital angular momentum in metals is much lower than that of spin or charge due to the strong orbital intermixing in crystals. Furthermore, our theory introduces the concept of spin-orbit polarization by which a pure orbital (spin) current induces a longitudinal spin (orbital) current, a process as efficient as spin polarization in ferromagnets. Finally, we find that orbital currents undergo momentum swapping, even in the absence of spin-orbit coupling. This theory establishes several key parameters for orbital transport of direct importance to experiments.
