Large-Chern-number quantum anomalous Hall effect in thin-film topological crystalline insulators.
We theoretically predict that thin-film topological crystalline insulators can host various quantum anomalous Hall phases when doped by ferromagnetically ordered dopants. Any Chern number between ±4 can, in principle, be reached as a result of the interplay between (a) the induced Zeeman field, depending on the magnetic doping concentration, (b) the structural distortion, either intrinsic or in...
متن کاملTopological one-way fiber of second Chern number
Optical fiber is a ubiquitous and indispensable component in communications, sensing, biomedicine and many other lightwave technologies and applications. Here we propose topological one-way fibers to remove two fundamental mechanisms that limit fiber performance: scattering and reflection. We design three-dimensional (3D) photonic crystal fibers, inside which photons propagate only in one direc...
متن کاملCharacterization of Topological States on a Lattice with Chern Number
We study Chern numbers to characterize the ground state of strongly interacting systems on a lattice. This method allows us to perform a numerical characterization of bosonic fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states on a lattice where conventional overlap calculation with known continuum case such as Laughlin state, breaks down. We calculate the Chern number by manipulating the twist angles of boun...
متن کاملMeasuring Topological Number of a Chern-Insulator from Quench Dynamics
In this letter we address the issue that whether the topological number of a static Hamiltonian can be measured from a dynamical quench process. We focus on a two-band Chern insulator in twodimension, for instance, the Haldane model, whose quantum state is a pseudo-spin on the Bloch sphere. The dynamical process is described by a mapping from the [kx, ky, t] space to the Bloch sphere, character...
متن کاملLarge Chern Number and Edge Currents in Sr2RuO4.
We show from a weak-coupling microscopic calculation that the most favored chiral superconducting order parameter in Sr2RuO4 has a Chern number of |C|=7. The two dominant components of this order parameter are given by sin(3k(x))+isin(3k(y)) and sin(k(x))cos(k(y))+isin(k(y))cos(k(x)) and lie in the same irreducible representation E(u) of the tetragonal point group as the usually assumed gap fun...
