We propose a novel means to isolate and quantify the effects of Berry force on molecular dynamics using two reasonably strong continuous wave (CW) laser fields with frequencies $\omega$ and $2\omega$. For molecules or materials with three…
The dynamics of a molecule in a magnetic field is significantly different form its zero-field counterpart. One important difference in the presence of a field is the Lorentz force acting on the nuclei, which can be decomposed as the sum of…
By quantizing the semiclassical motion of excitons, we show that the Berry curvature can cause an energy splitting between exciton states with opposite angular momentum. This splitting is determined by the Berry curvature flux through the…
We study theoretically the influence of Berry phase on the real-time dynamics of the single particle focusing on the diffusive dynamics, i.e., the time-dependence of the distribution function. Our model can be applied to the real-time…
We explore the effects of spin-orbit coupling on nuclear wave packet motion near an out-of-equilibrium molecular junction, where nonzero Berry curvature emerges as the antisymmetric part of the electronic friction tensor. The existence of…
We investigate how the Berry force (i.e. the pseudo-magnetic force operating on nuclei as induced by electronic degeneracy and spin-orbit coupling (SOC)) might modify a post-transition state bifurcation (PTSB) reaction path and affect…
We demonstrate that there exist frequency domain Berry curvature in the wave function of photons in dispersive optical systems. This property arises from the frequency dispersion of its dielectric function, which makes Maxwell equations a…
Recently, the topological flat bands and spin Hall effect have been experimentally observed in the AB-stacked MoTe$_2$/WSe$_2$ heterostructures. In this work, we systematically study the Berry curvature effects in moir\'{e} transition metal…
Within the context of very simple avoided crossing, we investigate the investigate the effect of a complex diabatic coupling in determining spin-dependent rate constants and scattering states. We find that, if the molecular geometry is not…
Geometric or Berry phases are fundamental manifestations that appear in many areas of physics. They arise from the geometry of the space describing the properties of multi-component wave fields. An important example for electromagnetic…
The Berry curvature is essential in Born$-$Oppenheimer molecular dynamics, describing the screening of the nuclei by the electrons in a magnetic field. Parts of the Berry curvature can be understood as the external magnetic field multiplied…
We study the magnetic Bloch oscillations performed by a quantum particle moving in a two-dimensional lattice in the presence of a strong (synthetic) magnetic field and a uniform force. An elementary derivation of the Berry curvature effect…
We show that in a layered metal, the angle dependent, finite frequency, interlayer magnetoresistance is altered due to the presence of a non-zero Berry curvature at the Fermi surface. At zero frequency, we find a conservation law which…
A valley-contrasting Berry curvature in bilayer transition metal dichalcogenides with spin-orbit coupling can generate valley magnetization when the inversion symmetry is broken, for example, by an electric field, regardless of…
The diagonal nonadiabatic term arising from the Born--Oppenheimer wave-function ansatz contains contributions from a vector and scalar potential. The former is provably zero when the wave function can be taken to be real valued, and the…
We theoretically study the role of the Berry curvature on neutral and charged excitons in two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides. The Berry curvature arises due to a strong coupling between the conduction and valence bands in…
The Berry connection and curvature are key components of electronic structure calculations for atoms and molecules in magnetic fields. They ensure the correct translational behavior of the effective nuclear Hamiltonian and the correct…
In two-dimensional antiferromagnets, we identify the mixed Berry curvature as the geometrical origin of the nonreciprocal directional dichroism (NDD), which refers to the difference in light absorption with the propagation direction…
An electron spin moving adiabatically in a strong, spatially non-uniform magnetic field accumulates a geometric phase or Berry phase, which might be observable as a conductance oscillation in a mesoscopic ring. Two contradicting theories…
We have studied the spin dependent force and the associated momentum space Berry curvature in an accelerating system. The results are derived by taking into consideration the non relativistic limit of a generally covariant Dirac equation…
