Emergent topological phases in an extended Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with Rashba spin-orbit interaction, higher order hopping and domain wall

Abstract

We theoretically investigate emergent topological phases in an extended spin-full Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) model considering Rashba spin-orbit interaction, all possible complex next to next nearest neighbor (NNNN) hopping preserving Chiral symmetry. Our analysis finds exact condition for which the topological phases of both the spin sectors could be independently varied. We show that it necessarily depends on complex NNNN only. We elaborate in detail the emergent topological phases, its criteria through analytic determination of non-trivial gap-closing condition due to the presence of $\cos 2k$ term. We also find that the profile of topological edge modes for finite winding numbers depend non-monotonously on the value of NNNN hopping elucidating competing effect of model parameters. We extend our study to few coupled chains and show explicitly that depending on the parameters all possible winding number ranging from zero to $2N$ could be obtained, where $N$ is the number of chains considered. Finally we incorporate the study of domain wall and remarkably we find that the location of mid-gap zero energy state by changing the values of model parameters. Our study could be of immensely useful for future applications in quantum technology.
