Linking Spatial Distributions of Potential and Current in Viscous Electronics
arXiv:1607.00986 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.119.066601
Abstract
Viscous electronics is an emerging field dealing with systems in which strongly interacting electrons behave as a fluid. Electron viscous flows are governed by a nonlocal current-field relation which renders the spatial patterns of current and electric field strikingly distinct. Notably, driven by the viscous friction force from adjacent layers, current can flow against the electric field, generating negative resistance, vorticity and vortices. Moreover, different current flows can result in identical potential distributions. This sets a new situation where inferring the electron flow pattern from the measured potentials presents a nontrivial problem. Using the inherent relation between these patterns through the complex analysis, here we propose a method for extracting the current flows from potential distributions measured in the presence of a magnetic field.
