Chiral symmetry breaking in monolayer graphene by strong coupling expansion of compact and non-compact U(1) lattice gauge theories

Journal Article Araki, Yasufumi - Annals of Physics (New York)

Research Highlights: > Monolayer graphene is treated by strong coupling expansion of lattice gauge theory. > Spontaneous gap generation is shown in the strong coupling regime. > Results from compact and non-compact gauge formulations are compared. > Dispersion relation of the collective excitations are derived. - Abstract: Due to effective enhancement of the Coulomb coupling strength in the vacuum-suspended graphene, the system may turn from a semimetal into an insulator by the formation of a gap in the fermionic spectrum. This phenomenon is analogous to the spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry in the strong-coupling relativistic field theories. We study thismore »« less

Phonon Dispersion of an Epitaxial Monolayer Film of Hexagonal Boron Nitride on Ni(111)

Journal Article Rokuta, E ; Hasegawa, Y ; Suzuki, K ; ... - Physical Review Letters

Phonon spectra for epitaxial monolayer films of {ital hexagonal } boron nitride (h-BN) on Ni, Pd, and Pt (111) have been measured for the first time by using high resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy. On Ni(111), we have found two remarkable features in the observed dispersion curves: a level splitting at the crossing point of two phonon branches and degeneracy of two optical phonons with in-plane polarization at {ovr {Gamma}} , which means the rumpled structure of the h-BN film and the elimination of electric fields parallel to the film, respectively. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Phonon Polaritons in Monolayers of Hexagonal Boron Nitride

Journal Article Dai, Siyuan ; Fang, Wenjing ; Rivera, Nicholas ; ... - Advanced Materials

Abstract Phonon polaritons in van der Waals materials reveal significant confinement accompanied with long propagation length: important virtues for tasks pertaining to the control of light and energy flow at the nanoscale. While previous studies of phonon polaritons have relied on relatively thick samples, here reported is the first observation of surface phonon polaritons in single atomic layers and bilayers of hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Using antenna‐based near‐field microscopy, propagating surface phonon polaritons in mono‐ and bilayer hBN microcrystals are imaged. Phonon polaritons in monolayer hBN are confined in a volume about one million times smaller than the free‐space photons.more »« less

Quantum kinetic theory of the chiral anomaly

Journal Article Sekine, Akihiko ; Culcer, Dimitrie ; MacDonald, Allan H. - Physical Review. B

We present a general quantum kinetic theory of low-field magnetotransport in weakly disordered crystals that accounts fully for the interplay between electric-field-induced interband coherence, Bloch-state scattering, and an external magnetic field. The quantum kinetic equation we derive for the Bloch-state density matrix naturally incorporates the momentum-space Berry phase effects whose influence on Bloch-state wave-packet dynamics is normally incorporated into transport theory in an ad hoc manner. The Berry phase correction to the momentum-space density of states in the presence of an external magnetic field implied by semiclassical wave-packet dynamics is captured by our theory as an intrinsic density-matrix response tomore »« less
