Revival resonant scattering, perfect caustics, and isotropic transport of pseudospin-1 particles
We report unusual physics associated with wave scattering in pseudospin-1 systems whose band structure consists of a conventional Dirac cone and a topologically flat band. First, for small scatterer size, we find a surprising revival resonant scattering phenomenon and identify a peculiar type of boundary trapping profile through the formation of unusual vortices as the physical mechanism. Secon...
متن کاملKane Fermion in a Two-Dimensional π-Conjugated Bis(iminothiolato)nickel Monolayer.
Massless Kane fermions revealed in zinc-blende semiconductors have recently gained interest in the broad study of relativistic materials. In particular, two-dimensional (2D) Kane fermions were expected to be hybrids of pseudospin-1 and -1/2 Dirac fermions. Based on first-principles calculations, we demonstrated that 2D Kane fermions can be realized in a recently synthesized metal-organic framew...
متن کاملDynamical Nature of the Nuclear Pseudospin and Its Isospin Asymmetry
Pseudospin symmetry in nuclei is investigated by solving the Dirac equation with Woods-Saxon scalar and vector radial potentials. We relate the pseudospin interaction with a pseudospin-orbit term in a Schroedinger-like equation for the lower component of the Dirac spinor. We show that this term gives a large contribution to the energy splittings of pseudospin partners, so that the near pseudosp...
متن کاملOFFPRINT Spatial distribution of local currents of massless Dirac fermions in quantum transport through graphene nanoribbons
We employ the formalism of bond currents, expressed in terms of the nonequilibrium Green functions, to image the charge flow between two sites of the honeycomb lattice of graphene ribbons of few nanometers width. In sharp contrast to nonrelativistic electrons, current density profiles of quantum transport at energies close to the Dirac point in clean zigzag graphene nanoribbons (ZGNR) differs m...
متن کاملGate-dependent pseudospin mixing in graphene/boron nitride moire superlattices
Electrons in graphene are described by relativistic Dirac–Weyl spinors with a two-component pseudospin1–12. The unique pseudospin structure of Dirac electrons leads to emerging phenomena such as the massless Dirac cone2, anomalous quantum Hall e ect2,3, and Klein tunnelling4,5 in graphene. The capability to manipulate electron pseudospin is highly desirable for novel grapheneelectronics, and it...
