Low-energy effective Hamiltonian involving spin-orbit coupling in silicene and two-dimensional germanium and tin
Starting from symmetry considerations and the tight-binding method in combination with first-principles calculation, we systematically derive the low-energy effective Hamiltonian involving spin-orbit coupling (SOC) for silicene. This Hamiltonian is very general because it applies not only to silicene itself but also to the low-buckled counterparts of graphene for the other group-IVA elements Ge...

متن کاملUpstanding Rashba spin in honeycomb lattices: Electrically reversible surface spin polarization
The spin-split states subject to Rashba spin-orbit coupling in two-dimensional systems have long been accepted as pointing inplane and perpendicular to the corresponding wave vectors. This is in general true for free-electron model, but exceptions do exist elsewhere. Within the tight-binding model, we unveil the unusual upstanding behavior of those Rashba spins around K̄ and K̄ points in honeycom...
متن کاملSolid-solid transformations in a confined soft sphere fluid.
Grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations are used to investigate the structure of frozen phases in a confined soft sphere (Lennard-Jones) fluid for a bulk state point lying close to the liquid-solid freezing line. The study reveals that the pore fluid not only freezes in the pore, but solid-solid transformations occur in the two, and three-layered structures that form as the pore height is varie...
