Insulator/Chern-insulator transition in the Haldane model
We study the behavior of several physical properties of the Haldane model as the system undergoes its transition from the normal-insulator to the Chern-insulator phase. We find that the density matrix has exponential decay in both insulating phases, while having a power-law decay, more characteristic of a metallic system, precisely at the phase boundary. The total spread of the maximally locali...
متن کاملChern insulator with large Chern numbers. Chiral Majorana fermion liquid
In the framework ofHofstadter’s approachwe provide a detailed analysis of a realization of exotic topological states such as the Chern insulator (CI)with largeChern numbers. In a transverse homogeneousmagnetic field a one-particle spectrumof fermions transforms to an intricate spectrum with afine topological structure of the subbands. In aweakmagnetic fieldH for a rationalmagnetic flux, a topol...
متن کاملContinuous Preparation of a Fractional Chern Insulator.
We present evidence of a direct, continuous quantum phase transition between a Bose superfluid and the ν=1/2 fractional Chern insulator in a microscopic lattice model. In the process, we develop a detailed field theoretic description of this transition in terms of the low energy vortex dynamics. The theory explicitly accounts for the structure of lattice symmetries and predicts a Landau forbidd...
متن کاملChern insulator at a magnetic rocksalt interface
Considerable efforts have recently been devoted to the experimental realization of a two-dimensional Chern insulator, i.e., a system displaying a quantum anomalous Hall effect. However, existing approaches such as those based on magnetic doping of topological-insulator thin films have resulted in small band gaps, restricting the effect to low temperatures. We use first-principles calculations t...
متن کاملElectric polarization in a Chern insulator.
We extend the Berry-phase concept of polarization to insulators having a nonzero value of the Chern invariant. The generalization to such Chern insulators requires special care because of the partial occupation of chiral edge states. We show how the integrated bulk current arising from an adiabatic evolution can be related to a difference of bulk polarizations. We also show how the surface char...
