The Hall Effect01:30

The Hall Effect

2.8K
Edwin H. Hall, in the year 1879, devised an experiment that could be used to identify the polarity of the predominant charge carriers in a conducting material. From a historical perspective, this experiment was the first to demonstrate that the charge carriers in most metals are negative.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges

9.3K
A stationary charge creates and interacts with the electric field, while a moving charge creates a magnetic field.
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...

Atomic Nuclei: Nuclear Spin State Overview

1.2K
NMR-active nuclei have energy levels called 'spin states' that are associated with the orientations of their nuclear magnetic moments. In the absence of a magnetic field, the nuclear magnetic moments are randomly oriented, and the spin states are degenerate. When an external magnetic field is applied, the spin states have only 2 + 1 orientations available to them. A proton with = ½ has two available orientations. Similarly, for a quadrupolar nucleus with a nuclear spin value of...

Atomic Nuclei: Nuclear Magnetic Moment

1.9K
All atomic nuclei are positively charged. When they have a nonzero spin, they behave like rotating charges. As a consequence of their charge and spin, these nuclei generate a magnetic field (B). This, in turn, gives rise to a magnetic moment (μ), which is randomly oriented in the absence of an external magnetic field. When an external magnetic field (B0) is applied, the magnetic moment vectors can align with the field or against it in 2 + 1 orientations. A hydrogen nucleus, which is just a...

Diamagnetism01:26

Diamagnetism

2.5K
Materials consisting of paired electrons have zero net magnetic moments. However, when these materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Such materials are called diamagnets. Diamagnetism is the response of the diamagnets when placed in an external magnetic field.
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets....

Paramagnetism01:30

Paramagnetism

2.6K
Paramagnets are materials with unpaired electrons that possess a finite magnetic moment. In the absence of a magnetic field, these moments are randomly oriented, and thus the net moment is zero. Under an external field, a torque acting on the moments tends to align them along the field's direction. However, the random thermal motion of electrons produces a torque opposite to the external field and tries to disorient the moments. These two competing effects align only a few moments along the...

Area of Science:

  • Condensed Matter Physics
  • Topological Materials Science
  • Quantum Phenomena

Background:

  • The quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) and magnetic skyrmions (SK) are key topological states studied in momentum (K) and real (R) spaces, respectively.
  • Despite significant interest, the interplay and combined phenomena between QAHE and SK remain underexplored.
  • Understanding these interactions is crucial for advancing topological physics and materials.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the potential interplay between the quantum anomalous Hall effect (QAHE) and magnetic skyrmions (SK).
  • To propose and characterize a novel topological state arising from this interplay, termed the RK-joint topological skyrmion (RK-SK).
  • To explore the potential for external field-tunable chiral boundary states (CBSs) within the RK-SK for advanced skyrmion manipulation and topological phase transitions.

Main Methods:

  • Theoretical proposal of the RK-joint topological skyrmion (RK-SK) state.
  • Characterization of the RK-SK by its unique structure: a magnetic skyrmion surrounded by non-trivial chiral boundary states (CBSs).
  • Analysis of the role of external fields in tuning the CBSs and inducing topological phase transitions between momentum and real spaces.

Main Results:

  • The study proposes the existence of an RK-joint topological skyrmion (RK-SK), a novel state resulting from the interplay of QAHE and SK.
  • The RK-SK is characterized by magnetic skyrmions enveloped by non-trivial chiral boundary states (CBSs).
  • External fields are shown to enable tunability of these CBSs, offering new degrees of freedom for skyrmion manipulation and facilitating topological phase transitions.

Conclusions:

  • The interplay between QAHE and SK can lead to the formation of RK-joint topological skyrmions (RK-SKs).
  • The RK-SK state offers novel possibilities for skyrmion manipulation through external field-tunable chiral boundary states.
  • This research opens new avenues for exploring unconventional quantum states and topological phase transitions across different physical spaces.
