Nernst effect is the transverse electric field due to a longitudinal thermal gradient in presence of magnetic field. Its magnitude was recently studied up to 33 T in a bismuth single crystal with a magnetic field oriented along the trigonal…
Recent experiments on bismuth have uncovered remarkably rich magnetization structure at fields well beyond the regime in which all carriers are expected to reside in the lowest Landau level. Motivated by these findings, we start from a…
The Zeeman effect lowers the energy of electrons with spin states which are anti-parallel to the applied magnetic field but lifts that of spin parallel states. In quantum spin liquids where the spin and charge degrees of freedom are…
We show that in some trigonal and hexagonal crystals the Zeeman coupling of band electrons with an external magnetic field is strongly anisotropic and necessarily vanishes along the main symmetry axis. This leads to qualitative changes in…
In elemental Bismuth, 10$^5$ atoms share a single itinerant electron. Therefore, a moderate magnetic field can confine electrons to the lowest Landau level. We report on the first study of metallic thermoelectricity in this regime. The main…
The huge spin precession frequency observed in recent experiments with spin-polarized beams of hot electrons shot through magnetized films is interpreted as being caused by Zeeman coupling of the electron spins to the so-called Weiss…
In the presence of spin-orbit coupling two branches of the energy spectrum of 2D electrons get shifted in the momentum space. Application of in-plane magnetic field causes the splitting of the branches in energy. When both, spin-orbit…
In this work fluctuations in the electric field of surface plasmon polaritons undergoing random scattering on a rough metallic surface are considered. A rigorous closed form analytic expression is derived describing second order…
First principles calculations of the O surfaces of Co-ZnO show that substitutional Co ions develop large magnetic moments which long-range coupling depends on their mutual distance. The local spin polarization induced at the O atoms is…
We study electronic properties as a function of the six types of local environments found in the octagonal tiling. The density of states has six characteristic forms, although the detailed structure differs from site to site since no two…
An unexpected finding two decades ago demonstrated that Shockley electron states in noble metal surfaces are spin-polarized, forming a circulating spin texture in reciprocal space. The fundamental role played by the spin degree of freedom…
Because of the long Fermi wavelength of itinerant electrons, the quantum limit of elemental bismuth (unlike most metals) can be attained with a moderate magnetic field. The quantized orbits of electrons shrink with increasing magnetic…
When a foreign atom is placed on a surface of a metal, the surrounding sea of electrons responds screening the additional charge leading to oscillations or ripples. On surfaces, those electrons are sometimes confined to two-dimensional…
The correlated motion of electrons in the presence of strong orbital fluctuations and correlations is investigated with respect to magnetic couplings and excitations in an orbitally degenerate ferromagnet. Introduction of the orbital degree…
The paper considers the semiclassical dynamics of electrons on complex Fermi surfaces in the presence of strong magnetic fields. The reconstructions of the general topological structure of such dynamics are accompanied by the appearance of…
Recently, there has been a revival of interest in mechanisms for changing the spin polarization of an electron beam on transmission through, or reflection from, a magnetic surface. An understanding of these mechanisms would allow the use of…
We calculate the magnetic-field dependence (oscillations) of the Nernst coefficient in bismuth at low temperatures for the case when the magnetic field is directed along the trigonal axis of the crystal. In the calculations we take into…
Metals typically have multiple Fermi surface sheets, and when they enter the superconducting state, some electrons on these sheets may remain uncondensed, or their superconducting pairs can be rapidly destroyed by a magnetic field.…
Whereas bulk bismuth supports very-high mobility, light, Dirac electrons and holes in its interior, its boundaries support a layer of heavy electrons in surface states formed by spin orbit interaction in the presence of the surface electric…
We investigate the temporal evolution of the electronic states at the bismuth (111) surface by means of time and angle resolved photoelectron spectroscopy. The binding energy of bulk-like bands oscillates with the frequency of the $A_{1g}$…
