AI总结:

本文预测了A型反铁磁单层$\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$具有巨大自发谷极化,通过面外电场打破$PT$对称性引发自旋劈裂实现层锁定反常谷霍尔效应,并证明Janus结构无需外电场即可实现该效应。

摘要:

优于铁磁(FM)材料,反铁磁(AFM)材料没有任何净磁矩,对外部磁扰动具有鲁棒性,且具有超高的动态速度。在 AFM 材料中实现自发谷极化和反常谷霍尔效应(AVHE)对自旋电子学和谷电子学的潜在应用具有重要意义。在此,我们预测了一种具有巨大自发谷极化的 A 型 AFM 单层 $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$。单层 $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ 在动量空间中具有零 Berry 曲率,但在实空间中具有非零的层锁定隐藏 Berry 曲率,这为实现 AVHE 提供了基本条件。由于 $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ 具有空间反演($P$)和时间反演($T$)对称性的联合对称性($PT$ 对称性),自旋是简并的,这阻碍了 AVHE。面外外部电场可用于产生自旋劈裂,原因是引入了层依赖静电势,随后可在 $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ 中实现层锁定 AVHE。此外,当电场方向反转时,自旋劈裂的自旋序也可以反转。事实证明,由于内在内置电场,Janus $\mathrm{Fe_2CFCl}$ 无需外部电场即可实现 AVHE。我们的工作提供了一种具有优异特性以实现 AVHE 的 AFM 单层。

英文摘要:

Superior to ferromagnetic (FM) materials, antiferromagnetic (AFM) materials do not have any net magnetic moment and are robust to external magnetic perturbation with ultra-high dynamic speed. To achieve spontaneous valley polarization and anomalous valley Hall effect (AVHE) in AFM materials is of great significance for potential applications in spintronics and valleytronics. Here, we predict an A-type AFM monolayer $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ with large spontaneous valley polarization. Monolayer $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ has zero Berry curvature in momentum space but non-zero layer-locked hidden Berry curvature in real space, which provides the basic conditions for the realization of AVHE. Because $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$ possesses the combined symmetry ($PT$ symmetry) of spatial inversion ($P$) and time reversal ($T$) symmetry, the spin is degenerate, which prevents the AVHE. An out-of-plane external electric field can be used to produce spin splitting due to the introduction of layer-dependent electrostatic potential, and then layer-locked AVHE can be realized in $\mathrm{Fe_2CF_2}$. Moreover, the spin order of spin splitting can be reversed, when the direction of electric field is reversed. It is proved that the AVHE can be achieved in Janus $\mathrm{Fe_2CFCl}$ without external electric field due to intrinsic built-in electric field. Our works provide an AFM monolayer with excellent properties to realize AVHE.
