The interaction between the electric field E and spins in multiorbital Mott insulators is studied theoretically. We find a generic coupling mechanism, which works for all crystal lattices and which does not involve relativistic effects. It couples E to the "internal" electric field e originating from the dynamical Berry phase. We discuss several effects of this interaction: (i) an unusual elect...

In this study, spectroscopic properties of the single-walled boron-nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) –a semiconductor channel in molecular diodes and molecular transistors–have been investigated under field-free and various applied electric fields by first principle methods.Our analysis shows that increasing the electric field in boron-nitride nanotube (BNNT) decreases the Highest Occupied Crystal Orbi...

The magnetic properties of fluorine hexahydrates transition metals have been studied. It was found that the presence spin-orbit interaction metal ion has a significant effect on anisotropy properties. Depending direction orbital moment cation with crystal field easy magnetization changes from crystallographic b-axis to c-axis. Keywords: single crystal, anisotropy, Jahn-Teller effect.

We propose and demonstrate a hybrid cavity system in which metal nanoparticles are evanescently coupled to a dielectric photonic crystal cavity using a nanoassembly method. While the metal constituents lead to strongly localized fields, optical feedback is provided by the surrounding photonic crystal structure. The combined effect of plasmonic field enhancement and high quality factor (Q approx...

We develop a magneto-elastic (ME) coupling model for the interaction between the vortex lattice and crystal elasticity. The theory extends the Kogan-Clem’s anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau (GL) model to include the elasticity effect. The anisotropies in superconductivity and elasticity are simultaneously considered in the GL theory frame. We compare the field and angular dependences of the magnetiza...

We have studied the presence of plateaus on the low-temperature magnetization of an antiferromagnetic spin-1 chain, as an external uniform magnetic field is varied. A crystal-field interaction is present in the model and the exchange constants follow a random quenched (Bernoulli or Gaussian) distribution. Using a transfer-matrix technique we calculate the largest Lyapunov exponent and, from it,...
