Is the Aharonov-Casher phase geometrical or dynamical?
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band, Yshai Avishai
We consider two two-dimensional (2D) electronic systems in the presence of a perpendicular homogeneous electric field that generates a Rashba spin-orbit interaction (RSOI): a syste…
Aharonov-Casher phase in twisted bilayer graphene
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band, Yshai Avishai
The Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect is a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which the wave function of a particle with a magnetic moment moving in a region subject to an electric field d…
Hysteresis in the complex nonlinear refractive index of a homogeneous and isotropic medium
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band, Yshai Avishai +1
We calculate the permittivity, , for a medium with a quadratic electro-optic effect, modeling it as a Duffing oscillator. The nonlinear refractive index and the…
Atom beam-splitter with internal state selection using spin-dependent optical standing wave potentials
Igor Kuzmenko, Yshai Avishai, Y. B. Band
We propose an atom beam splitter that enables the manipulation of the internal spin state of the atoms in the output beams using a spin-dependent optical potential. The utility of…
The Aharonov-Casher Phase: Considerations Regarding Force, Time-Dependence, and Berry Phase
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band, Yshai Avishai
The relation of the Aharonov-Casher (AC) effect and the force on a particle having a magnetic moment is explored. The general form of the AC Hamiltonian is derived using the Foldy-…
The Aharonov-Casher phase is geometrical and not topological
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band, Yshai Avishai
It is demonstrated that the Aharonov-Casher (AC) phase is a geometric phase that, in general, depends on the details of the closed path taken by a particle with a magnetic moment t…
Exotic Kondo effect in two one dimensional spin 1/2 chains coupled to two localized spin 1/2 magnets
Igor Kuzmenko, Tetyana Kuzmenko, Y. B. Band +1
We study an exotic Kondo effect in a system consisting of two one-dimensional XX Heisenberg ferromagnetic spin chains (denoted by for up and down chains) coupled to…
Geometric Phases in Optics: Polarization of Light Propagating in Helical Optical Fibers
Y. B. Band, Igor Kuzmenko, Yshai Avishai
The geometric phase in optics (GPIO) is directly associated with the polarization of light. We investigate the physical principles underlying the occurrence of the GPIO for a singl…
Effective refractive index of a silicon dioxide with implanted Ag nanoparticles and Er ions
Igor Kuzmenko, Y. Avishai, Y. B. Band
We consider light propagation in a silicon dioxide substrate with implanted ions and silver nanoparticles that are randomly and homogeneously distributed in th…
Klein Bound States in Single-Layer Graphene
Y. Avishai, Y. B. Band
The Klein paradox, first introduced in relation to chiral tunneling, is also manifested in the study of bound-states in single-layer graphene with a 1D square-well potential. We de…
