We investigate spin-flip scattering processes of electrons when they pass a chiral interface, which is the boundary between right- and left-handed one-dimensional chain. We construct a minimal $p$-orbital model consisting of the right- and…
We study the current of chiral charge density in a Dirac semimetal with two Dirac points in momentum space, subjected to an externally applied time dependent electric field and in the presence of a magnetic field. Based on the kinetic…
We show that under the effect of an external electric field and a gradient of chemical potential, a topological electric current can be induced in Weyl semimetals without inversion and mirror symmetries. We derive analytic expressions for…
The currents at the terminals of a mesoscopic conductor are evaluated in the presence of slowly oscillating potentials applied to the contacts of the sample. The need to find a charge and current conserving solution to this dynamic current…
Using first principles methods, we investigate topological phase transitions as a function of exchange field in a Bi(111) bilayer. Evaluation of the spin Chern number for different magnitudes of the exchange field reveals that when the time…
Optical forces can be chiral when they exhibit opposite signs for the two enantiomeric versions of a chiral molecule or particle. Such forces could be eventually used to separate enantiomers, which could find application in numerous…
The transmittance of intersection between narrow quantum strips is studied. It is assumed that strip widths are less than the electron wavelength, so that they are tunnel conductors. In this assumption the Schr\"odinger equation is reduced…
Spin-orbit coupling in chiral materials can induce chirality-dependent spin splitting, enabling electrical manipulation of spin polarization. Here, we use first-principles calculations to investigate the electronic states of chiral…
Chiral edge states can transmit energy along imperfect interfaces in a topologically robust and unidirectional manner when protected by bulk-boundary correspondence. However, in continuum systems, the number of states at an interface can…
An exciton beam splitter is designed and computationally implemented, offering the prospect of excitonic interferometry. Exciton interaction between propagation conduits is modeled using a coupling parameter that varies with position. In…
We discussed the possibility that the charged axial currents of matter fields could be non-conserved in electromagnetic interaction at $O(e) $ order. It means that chiral symmetry is broken explicitly by electromagnetic interaction. This…
The existence of chiral edge states, corresponding to the nontrivial bulk-band topology characterized by a non-vanishing topological invariant, and the manipulation of topological transport via chiral edge states promise topological…
Chiral active matter, which breaks both parity symmetry and time-reversal symmetry, is ubiquitous in living systems. Here, we introduce a minimal two-dimensional chiral active lattice gas by incorporating stochastic, biased local rotations.…
We explore the electronic structure and transport properties of a metal on top of a (weakly coupled) two-dimensional topological insulator. Unlike the widely studied junctions between topological non-trivial materials, the systems studied…
The manipulation and movement of Dirac points in the Brillouin zone by the electron-electron interaction is considered within leading order perturbation theory. At the merging point, an infinitesimal interaction is shown to cause opening of…
Temporally varying electromagnetic media have been extensively investigated recently to unveil new means for controlling light. However, spin-dependent phenomena in such media have not been explored thoroughly. Here, we reveal the existence…
The mechanisms of optical activity and quantum transport of twisted bilayer graphene are studied. The formation of unique electron states in the bilayer systems is studied using an effective continuum model. Such states are shown to support…
We investigate quantum transport in a two-dimensional electron system coupled to a chiral molecular potential, demonstrating how molecular chirality and orientation affect charge and spin transport properties. We propose a minimal model for…
In connection with the recent Harvard group experiment on graphene-based four-terminal Josephson junctions containing a grounded loop, we consider biasing at opposite voltages on the quartet line and establish lowest-order perturbation…
We investigate the nonlinear ac transport through a quantum wire with an impurity in the presence of finite range electron-electron interactions. We discuss the influence of the spatial shape of the ac electric field onto transport…
