Chiral electron transport: scattering through helical potentials.
We present a model for the transmission of spin-polarized electrons through oriented chiral molecules, where the chiral structure is represented by a helix. The scattering potential contains a confining term and a spin-orbit contribution that is responsible for the spin-dependent scattering of electrons by the molecular target. The differential scattering cross section is calculated for right- ...
متن کاملSpin chirality induced skew scattering and anomalous Hall effect in chiral magnets
Noncoplanar magnetic orders in magnetic metals give rise to an anomalous Hall effect of unconventional origin, which, by the spin Berry phase effect, is known as the topological Hall effect. This effect is pronounced in the low-temperature limit, where the fluctuation of spins is suppressed. In contrast, we here discuss that the fluctuating but locally correlated spins close to the phase bounda...
متن کاملAnomalous Chiral Fermi Surface
We provide a geometrical argument for the emergence of a Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) term in a Fermi surface threaded by a Berry curvature. In the presence of external fields, the gauged WZW term yields a chiral (triangle) anomaly for the fermionic current at the edge of the Fermi surface. Fermion number is conserved though since Berry curvatures occur always in pairs with opposite (monopole) char...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry in Matter
We provide a schematic view to some general aspects of chiral symmetry in matter using mean-eld arguments. We use a simpliied version of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model to formulate the ideas behind the thermodynamics at work in a variety of models with spontaneously broken chiral symmetry but without connnement. This version of the model is mapped onto chiral random matrix models, with some empha...
متن کاملChiral Symmetry in Matter *
Soft-pion theorems are used to show how chiral symmetry constrains the contributions of low-momentum pions to the quark condensate, the pion decay constant and hadron masses, all of which have been proposed as signals of partial restoration of chiral symmetry in matter. These have contributions of order T 2 for a pion gas or of order mπ for cold nuclear matter, which have different coefficients...
