Anisotropic optics and gravitational lensing of tilted Weyl fermions
Viktor Könye, Lotte Mertens, Corentin Morice +4
We show that tilted Weyl semimetals with a spatially varying tilt of the Weyl cones provide a platform for studying analogues to problems in anisotropic optics as well as curved sp…
Horizon physics of quasi-one-dimensional tilted Weyl cones on a lattice
Viktor Könye, Corentin Morice, Dmitry Chernyavsky +3
To simulate the dynamics of massless Dirac fermions in curved spacetimes with one, two, and three spatial dimensions we construct tight-binding Hamiltonians with spatially varying…
Quantum dynamics in 1D lattice models with synthetic horizons
Corentin Morice, Dmitry Chernyavsky, Jasper van Wezel +2
We investigate the wave packet dynamics and eigenstate localization in recently proposed generalized lattice models whose low-energy dynamics mimics a quantum field theory in (1+1)…
Engineering spectral properties of non-interacting lattice Hamiltonians
Ali G. Moghaddam, Dmitry Chernyavsky, Corentin Morice +2
We investigate the spectral properties of one-dimensional lattices with position-dependent hopping amplitudes and on-site potentials that are smooth bounded functions of position.…
Synthetic gravitational horizons in low-dimensional quantum matter
Corentin Morice, Ali G. Moghaddam, Dmitry Chernyavsky +2
We propose a class of lattice models realizable in a wide range of setups whose low-energy dynamics exactly reduces to Dirac fields subjected to (1+1)-dimensional gravitational bac…
Optical conductivity and resistivity in a four-band model for ZrTe from ab-initio calculations
Corentin Morice, Elias Lettl, Thilo Kopp +1
ZrTe is considered a potential candidate for either a Dirac semimetal or a topological insulator in close proximity to a topological phase transition. Recent optical conductivi…
Non-unique connection between bulk topological invariants and surface physics
Corentin Morice, Thilo Kopp, Arno P. Kampf
At the heart of the study of topological insulators lies a fundamental dichotomy: topological invariants are defined in infinite systems, but surface states as their main footprint…
