It has been known for more than a decade that phonons can produce an off-diagonal thermal conductivity in presence of magnetic field. Recent studies of thermal Hall conductivity, $\kappa_{xy}$, in a variety of contexts, however, have…
In a ferromagnet, the spin excitations are the well-studied magnons. In frustrated quantum magnets, long-range magnetic order fails to develop despite a large exchange coupling between the spins. In contrast to the magnons in conventional…
Quite recently, magnon Hall effect of spin excitations has been observed experimentally on the kagome and pyrochlore lattices. Thermal Hall conductivity $\kappa^{xy}$, changes sign as a function of magnetic field or temperature on the…
In a growing number of materials, phonons have been found to generate a thermal Hall effect, but the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Inspired by previous studies that revealed the importance of Tb$^{3+}$ ions in generating the thermal…
The Kitaev quantum spin liquid displays the fractionalization of quantum spins into Majorana fermions. The emergent Majorana edge current is predicted to manifest itself in the form of a finite thermal Hall effect, a feature commonly…
At low temperatures, the thermal conductivity of spin excitations in a magnetic insulator can exceed that of phonons. However, because they are charge neutral, the spin waves are not expected to display a thermal Hall effect in a magnetic…
Phonons are known to generate a thermal Hall effect in certain insulators, including oxides with rare-earth impurities, quantum paraelectrics, multiferroic materials and cuprate Mott insulators. In each case, a special feature of the…
Recently, Jiayi Hu and co-workers reported that they did not resolve any thermal Hall signal in La$_2$CuO$_4$ by `high resolution' measurements, setting an upper bound of $|\kappa_{xy}| <2\times 10^{-3}~$Wm$^{-1}$K$^{-1}$ at 20 K. Two…
We investigated the longitudinal thermal conductivity $\kappa_{xx}$ and thermal hall conductivity $\kappa_{xy}$ in La$_2$CuO$_4$ at temperatures $T$ between 2 and 20 K in magnetic fields $H$ up to 10 T. Within the temperature and field…
We report measurements of the thermal Hall effect in single crystals of both pristine and isotopically substituted strontium titanate. We discovered a two orders of magnitude difference in the thermal Hall conductivity between…
We report detailed measurements of the Onsager-like planar thermal Hall conductivity $\kappa_{xy}$ in $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$, a spin-liquid candidate of topical interest. With the thermal current ${\bf J}_{\rm Q}$ and magnetic field $\bf…
It has become common knowledge that phonons can generate thermal Hall effect in a wide variety of materials, although the underlying mechanism is still controversial. We study longitudinal $\kappa_{xx}$ and transverse $\kappa_{xy}$ thermal…
We study the nature of the debated thermal Hall effect in the candidate Kitaev material $\alpha$-RuCl$_3$. Without assuming the existence of a gapped spin liquid, we show that a realistic minimal spin model in the canted zigzag phase…
We present the experimental observation of a drastically enhanced thermal Hall effect in the topological insulator material TlBi$_{0.15}$Sb$_{0.85}$Te$_2$. Although heat transport is dominated by phonons, moderate magnetic fields generate a…
A surprising "planar" thermal Hall effect, whereby the field is parallel to the current, has recently been observed in a few magnetic insulators, and this has been attributed to exotic excitations such as Majorana fermions or chiral…
Proposed effective Hamiltonians from the literature for the material $\alpha$-RuCl${}_3$ are used to compute the magnon thermal Hall conductivity, $\kappa_{xy}$, using linear spin wave theory for the magnetically ordered state. No model…
The sign and profile of the thermal Hall conductivity $\kappa_{xy}$ gives important insights into the gap structure of multi-band superconductors. With this perspective, we have investigated $\kappa_{xy}$ and the thermal conductivity…
We present theoretically the thermal Hall effect of magnons in a ferromagnetic lattice with a Kekul\'e-O coupling (KOC) modulation and a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). Through a strain-based mechanism for inducing the KOC…
In high-purity crystals of YBa_2Cu_3O_7, the quasiparticle (qp) lifetime \tau and the (weak-field) thermal Hall conductivity \kappa_{xy} undergo dramatic increases below 90K. We present a detailed picture of the behavior of \kappa_{xy} at…
It has recently become clear that phonons generate a sizable thermal Hall effect in cuprates, whether they are undoped, electron-doped or hole-doped (inside the pseudogap phase). At higher doping, where cuprates are reasonably good metals,…
