Coordinate shift in the semiclassical Boltzmann equation and the anomalous Hall effect
N. A. Sinitsyn, Q. Niu, A. H. MacDonald
We propose a gauge invariant expression for the side jump associated with scattering between particular Bloch states. Our expression for the side jump follows from the Born series…
Semiclassical theory of spin transport in spin-orbit coupled systems
Dimitrie Culcer, Jairo Sinova, N. A. Sinitsyn +3
Motivated by recent interest in novel spintronics effects, we develop a semiclassical theory of spin transport that is valid for spin-orbit coupled bands. Aside from the obvious co…
Derivation of the transverse force on a moving vortex in a superfluid
D. J. Thouless, P. Ao, Q. Niu
We describe an exact derivation of the total nondissipative transverse force acting on a quantized vortex moving in a uniform background. The derivation is valid for neutral boson…
Quantized Density Response in Insulators
Q. Niu
The response of particle density to a dilation of a periodic potential in an insulator, with or without a fixed background potential or a magnetic field, is shown to be quantized.…
