Y-kapellasite [Y3Cu9(OH)19Cl8] 是一种受挫反铁磁绝缘体,直到约 2 K 的极低 Néel 温度仍保持顺磁性。我们在该材料的顺磁区进行研究,此时声子是唯一可能的热载流子,报告观测到一个明确来自声子的平面平行热霍尔效应。这相对于 Kitaev 量子自旋液体候选材料 α-RuCl3 和 Na2Co2TeO6 具有优势,因为原则上后者可能涉及其他热载流子 [1-4]。事实上,Y-kapellasite 在约 33 K 以下经历一个结构相变,该相变被归因于氢原子的位置冻结。在此相变温度以上,整体晶体对称性禁止平面平行信号的存在——这与 Na2Co2TeO6 和铜氧化物中的情况相同 [3-5]。这表明局域对称性破缺是声子霍尔效应的根源。在此背景下,Y-kapellasite 相对于 Na2Co2TeO6(具有高浓度的 Na 无序和堆垛层错)和铜氧化物(具有来自掺杂剂和氧空位的高浓度无序)的优势在于其干净的结构,其中可用于局域对称性破缺的唯一自由度是在 33 K 以上随机分布在六个等价位置上的氢原子。这为局域对称性破缺导致广泛绝缘体中声子霍尔效应的一般思想提供了一个具体而明确的案例。
英文摘要:
Y-kapellasite [Y3Cu9(OH)19Cl8] is a frustrated antiferromagnetic insulator which remains paramagnetic down to a remarkably low Néel temperature of about 2 K. Having studied this material in the paramagnetic regime, in which phonons are the only possible heat carriers, we report the observation of a planar parallel thermal Hall effect coming unambiguously from phonons. This is an advantage over the Kitaev quantum spin liquid candidates α-RuCl3 and Na2Co2TeO6 where in principle other heat carriers can be involved [1-4]. As it happens, Y-kapellasite undergoes a structural transition attributed to the positional freezing of a hydrogen atom below about 33 K. Above this transition, the global crystal symmetry forbids the existence of a planar parallel signal - the same situation as in Na2Co2TeO6 and cuprates [3-5]. This points to the notion of a local symmetry breaking at the root of the phonon Hall effect. In this context, the advantage of Y-kapellasite over Na2Co2TeO6 (with high levels of Na disorder and stacking faults) and cuprates (with high levels of disorder coming from dopants and oxygen vacancies) is its clean structure, where the only degree of freedom available for local symmetry breaking is this hydrogen atom randomly distributed over six equivalent positions above 33 K. This provides a specific and concrete case for the general idea of local symmetry breaking leading to the phonon Hall effect in a wide range of insulators.

众所周知,声子可以在多种材料中产生热霍尔效应,尽管其潜在机制仍存在争议。我们研究了自旋冰的金属类似物Pr $_2$和Ir $_2$ O $_7$中的纵向$κ_{xx}$和横向$κ_{xy}$热导率。尽管存在移动电荷载流子,我们发现,无论是$κ_{xx}$和$κ_{xy}$是由声子为主。$κ_{xx}$的$T/H$标度清楚地表明,纵向热流基本上受到顺磁自旋上声子的共振散射的阻碍。在冷却时,共振散射的强烈影响的自旋冰相关的发展和$κ_{xx}$偏离的缩放在各向异性的方式相对于场的方向。引人注目的是,一组$κ_{xx}$和$κ_{xy}$数据清楚地表明,$κ_{xy}$与$κ_{xx}$在其对磁场的响应方面相关,包括$T/H$的成功缩放和其在低温下的失败。这种显著的相关性提供了坚实的证据,自旋-声子散射不仅对阻碍纵向热传导,而且对产生横向响应起着不可或缺的作用。

Observation of planar Hall effect in the magnetic Weyl semimetal Co$_{3}$Sn$_{2}$S$_{2}$
我们报告详细的磁性Weyl半金属Co $_{3}$ Sn $_{2}$ S $_{2}$单晶的磁输运测量。最近,在这种材料中观察到了大的反常霍尔效应和手性反常,这被认为与外尔点之间的大Berry曲率有关(Liu等人,Nature Physics(2018).)。预期由磁性Weyl材料的拓扑能带结构产生的另一效应是平面霍尔效应(PHE)。在这项工作中,我们报告观察到的本征效应在单晶的Co $_{3}$ Sn $_{2}$ S $_{2}$。重要的是,在温度$T \leq 74$ ~K下观察到PHE,该温度远小于铁磁有序温度$T_c = 175$ ~K。结合大的反常霍尔电导率,进一步证明了Co $_3$ Sn $_2$ S $_2$的拓扑特征.
