The Berry phase in ferromagnetic spin systems and anomalous Hall Effect

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

We have shown that the study of topological aspects of the underlying geometry in a ferromagnetic spin system gives rise to an intrinsic Berry phase. This real space Berry phase arises due to the spin rotations of conducting electrons which can be manifested as a further contribution in anomalous Hall effect.
