Dynamical spin susceptibility of spin-valley half-metal
arXiv:2002.05504 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.101.235141
Abstract
A few years ago we predicted theoretically that in systems with nesting of the Fermi surface the spin-valley half-metal has lower energy than the spin density wave state. In this paper we suggest a possible way to distinguish these phases experimentally. We calculate dynamical spin susceptibility tensor for both states in the framework of the Kubo formalism. Discussed phases have different numbers of the bands: four bands in the spin-valley half-metal and only two bands in the spin density wave. Therefore, their susceptibilities, as functions of frequency, have different number of peaks. Besides, the spin-valley half-metal does not have rotational symmetry, thus, in general the off-diagonal components of susceptibility tensor are non-zero. The spin density wave obeys robust rotational symmetry and off-diagonal components of the susceptibility tensor are zero. These characteristic features can be observed in experiments with inelastic neutron scattering.
