We propose the semiclassical quantization for complicated electron systems governed by a many-band Hamiltonian. An explicit analytical expression of the corresponding Berry phase is derived. This impact allows us to evaluate the Landau…
We have derived a new set of semiclassical equations for electrons in magnetic Bloch bands. The velocity and energy of magnetic Bloch electrons are found to be modified by the Berry phase and magnetization. This semiclassical approach is…
We develop a semiclassical theory for the dynamics of electrons in a magnetic Bloch band, where the Berry phase plays an important role. This theory, together with the Boltzmann equation, provides a framework for studying transport problems…
Band crossing points, such as Weyl and Dirac points, play a crucial role in the topological classification of materials and guide the exploration of exotic topological phases. The Berry dipole, a three-dimensional band crossing point beyond…
The quasiclassical dynamics is studied for charge carriers moving on the surface of 3D topological insulator of Bi2Te3 type and subjected to static magnetic field. The effects connected to the symmetry changes of electron isoenergetic…
Band geometry plays a substantial role in topological lattice models. The Berry curvature, which resembles the effect of magnetic field in reciprocal space, usually fluctuates throughout the Brillouin zone. Motivated by the analogy with…
We study the energy spectrum of a graphene bilayer in the presence of transverse electric and magnetic fields. We find that the resulting Landau levels exhibit a nonmonotonic dependence on the electric field, as well as numerous level…
Topological properties lie at the heart of many fascinating phenomena in solid state systems such as quantum Hall systems or Chern insulators. The topology can be captured by the distribution of Berry curvature, which describes the geometry…
The theoretical identification of crystalline topological materials has enjoyed sustained success in simplified materials models, often by singling out discrete symmetry operations protecting the topological phase. When band structure…
The Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization rule lies at the heart of the modern semiclassical theory of a Bloch electron in a magnetic field. This rule is predictive of Landau levels and quantum oscillations for conventional metals, as well as for a…
The theory of the shift current is thus far geometrical without being topological. This means that the real-space displacement/shift of a photoexcited quasiparticle depends on the geometric Berry phase, but the Berry phase is not quantized…
We describe the theory of the dynamics of atoms in two-dimensional quasicrystalline optical lattices. We focus on a regime of shallow lattice depths under which the applied force can cause Landau-Zener tunneling past a dense hierarchy of…
We propose a general method by which experiments on ultracold gases can be used to determine the topological properties of the energy bands of optical lattices, as represented by the map of the Berry curvature across the Brillouin zone. The…
We propose to measure band topology via quantized drift of Bloch oscillations in a two-dimensional Harper-Hofstadter lattice subjected to tilted fields in both directions. When the difference between the two tilted fields is large, Bloch…
We report on the study of the non-trivial Berry phase in superconducting multiterminal quantum dots biased at commensurate voltages. Starting with the time-periodic Bogoliubov-de Gennes equations, we obtain a tight binding model in the…
We derive the semiclassical Bloch dynamics with the second-order Berry phase correction in the presence of the slow-varying scalar potential as perturbation. Our mathematical derivation is based on a two-scale WKB asymptotic analysis. For a…
y formally diagonalizing with accuracy $\hbar$ the Hamiltonian of electrons in a crystal subject to electromagnetic perturbations, we resolve the debate on the Hamiltonian nature of semiclassical equations of motion with Berry-phase…
We derive the field correction to the Berry curvature of Bloch electrons, which can be traced back to a positional shift due to the interband mixing induced by external electromagnetic fields. The resulting semiclassical dynamics is…
The weak field magnetoresistance has seen a revived interest due to the distinct role played by the momentum-space Berry curvature of Bloch electrons. While most previous studies in this regard focus on the inter-scattering motion of…
We develop a theory of nonlinear response to an electric field of two-dimensional (2D) fermions with topologically non-trivial wave functions characterized by the Berry phase $\Phi_n = n \pi, n = 1,2,...$. In particular, we find that owing…
