Trigonal warping induced terraced spin texture and nearly perfect spin polarization in graphene with Rashba effect
Da-Shuai Ma, Zhi-Ming Yu, Hui Pan +1
Electrical tunability of spin polarization has been a focus in spintronics. Here, we report that the trigonal warping (TW) effect, together with spin-orbit coupling (SOC), can lead…
Quantum anomalous Hall effect in atomic crystal layers from in-plane magnetization
Yafei Ren, Junjie Zeng, Xinzhou Deng +3
We theoretically report that, with \textit{in-plane} magnetization, the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) can be realized in two-dimensional atomic crystal layers with preserved…
Electric field controlled spin- and valley-polarized edge states in silicene with extrinsic Rashba effect
Zhiming Yu, Hui Pan, Yugui Yao
In the presence of extrinsic Rashba spin-orbit coupling, we find that silicene can host a new quantum anomalous Hall state with spin- and valley-polarized edge states, which can be…
Spin-orbit-free Weyl-loop and Weyl-point semimetals in a stable three-dimensional carbon allotrope
Yuanping Chen, Yuee Xie, Shengyuan A. Yang +4
Topological band theory has revolutionized our understanding of electronic structure of materials, in particular, a novel state - Weyl semimetal - has been predicted for systems wi…
Chirality Hall Effect in Weyl Semimetals
Shengyuan A. Yang, Hui Pan, Fan Zhang
We generalize a semiclassical theory and use the argument of angular momentum conservation to examine the ballistic transport in lightly-doped Weyl semimetals, taking into account…
Electric control of topological phase transitions in Dirac semimetal thin films
Hui Pan, Meimei Wu, Ying Liu +1
We investigate the effect of a vertical electric field on a Dirac semimetal thin film. We show that through the interplay between the quantum confinement effect and the field-induc…
