Topological Hall effect and Berry phase in magnetic nanostructures.
We discuss the anomalous Hall effect in a two-dimensional electron gas subject to a spatially varying magnetization. This topological Hall effect does not require any spin-orbit coupling and arises solely from Berry phase acquired by an electron moving in a smoothly varying magnetization. We propose an experiment with a structure containing 2D electrons or holes of diluted magnetic semiconducto...
متن کاملTopological Aspects of the Non-adiabatic Berry Phase
The topology of the non-adiabatic parameter space bundle is discussed for evolution of exact cyclic state vectors in Berry’s original example of split angular momentum eigenstates. It turns out that the change in topology occurs at a critical frequency. The first Chern number that classifies these bundles is proportional to angular momentum. The non-adiabatic principal bundle over the parameter...
متن کاملSpin gauge fields: From Berry phase to topological spin transport and Hall effects
The paper examines the emergence of gauge fields during the evolution of a particle with a spin that is described by a matrix Hamiltonian with n different eigenvalues. It is shown that by introducing a spin gauge field a particle with a spin can be described as a spin multiplet of scalar particles situated in a non-Abelian pure gauge (forceless) field U (n). As the result, one can create a theo...
متن کاملPolarization transport of transverse acoustic waves: Berry phase and spin Hall effect of phonons
We carry out a detailed analysis of the short-wave semiclassical approximation for the linear equations of the elasticity in a smoothly inhomogeneous isotropic medium. It is shown that the polarization properties of the transverse waves are completely analogous to those of electromagnetic waves and can be considered as spin properties of optical phonons. In particular, the Hamiltonian of the tr...
متن کاملBerry Phase Effects on Electronic Properties
Ever since its discovery, the notion of Berry phase has permeated through all branches of physics. Over the last three decades, it was gradually realized that the Berry phase of the electronic wave function can have a profound effect on material properties and is responsible for a spectrum of phenomena, such as polarization, orbital magnetism, various (quantum/anomalous/spin) Hall effects, and ...
