摘要:

体现量子几何的效应一直是物理学研究的焦点。本研究揭示,量子度量在非线性电自旋响应中发挥关键作用,由此产生量子度量自旋轨道转矩。我们认为,量子度量的增强可发生在能带(反)交叉处,因此在费米能级附近存在节点特征的拓扑金属中,非线性转矩可被放大。将我们的理论应用于具有节线和外尔点特征的磁性Kane-Mele模型与单层CrSBr后,我们证明量子度量转矩主导响应,其幅值因拓扑能带结构而显著增强,甚至超过此前报道的线性转矩,且自身足以驱动磁开关。

英文摘要:

Effects manifesting quantum geometry have been a focus of physics research. Here, we reveal that quantum metric plays a crucial role in nonlinear electric spin response, leading to a quantum metric spin-orbit torque. We argue that enhanced quantum metric can occur at band (anti)crossings, so the nonlinear torque could be amplified in topological metals with nodal features close to Fermi level. By applying our theory to magnetic Kane-Mele model and monolayer CrSBr, which feature nodal lines and Weyl points, we demonstrate that the quantum metric torque dominates the response, and its magnitude is significantly enhanced by topological band structures, which even surpasses the previously reported linear torques and is sufficient to drive magnetic switching by itself.
