A diversity of spin Hall effects in metallic systems is known to rely on Mott skew scattering. In this work its high-temperature counterpart, phonon skew scattering, which is expected to be of foremost experimental relevance, is…
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…
The spin Hall effect does not generally result in a charge Hall voltage. We predict that in systems with inhomogeneous electron density in the direction perpendicular to main current flow, the spin Hall effect is instead accompanied by a…
Steady current in metals induces a thermal gradient, a phenomenon known as the Peltier effect. The Peltier effect is one of the fundamental phenomena in the thermoelectric properties of materials and is also used in applications such as…
Black phosphorus (BP) is a two-dimensional layered material composed of phosphorus atoms. Recently, it was demonstrated that external perturbations such as an electric field close the band gap in few-layer BP, and can even induce a band…
The quantum Hall (QH) effect in two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) is conventionally observed at liquid-helium temperatures, where lattice vibrations are strongly suppressed and bulk carrier scattering is dominated by disorder.…
The Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interactions are both shown to yield the low temperature spin-Hall effect for strongly localized electrons coupled to phonons. A frequency-dependent electric field ${\bf E}(\omega)$ generates a…
We systematically investigated the geometric, electronic and thermoelectric (TE) properties of bulk black phosphorus (BP) under strain. The hinge-like structure of BP brings unusual mechanical responses such as anisotropic Young's modulus…
We study the thermal drag between two mesoscopic quantum Hall (QH) circuits. Each circuit consists of Ohmic contact perfectly coupled to quantum Hall edge states. The drag is caused by strong capacitive coupling between Ohmic contacts. The…
The effect of grain boundary (GB) structure, size and shape on thermal conductivity of polycrystalline graphene is studied in the framework of the deformation potential approach. Precise analytical expressions for the phonon mean free path…
Topological phononic insulators are the counterpart of three-dimensional quantum spin Hall insulators in phononic systems and, as such, their topological surfaces are characterized by Dirac cone-shaped gapless edge states arising as a…
The ferromagnet-topological insulator-ferromagnet (FM-TI-FM) junction exhibits thermal and electrical quantum Hall effects. The generated Hall voltage and transverse temperature gradient can be controlled by the directions of magnetizations…
Surface phonon-polaritons can carry energy on the surface of dielectric films and thus are expected to contribute to heat conduction. However, the contribution of surface phonon-polaritons (SPhPs) to thermal transport has not been…
We present a systematic theory of the phonon Hall effect in a ballistic crystal lattice system, and apply it on the kagome lattice which is ubiquitous in various real materials. By proposing a proper second quantization for the non-Hermite…
The nonlinear Hall effect (NHE) is a recently discovered member of the Hall effect family in which the Hall voltage shows a nonlinear behavior when a transverse electric field is applied. While the NHE does not require broken time-reversal…
The effect of thermal fluctuation on the spin-chirality-induced anomalous Hall effect in itinerant magnets is theoretically studied. Considering a triangular-lattice model as an example, we find that a multiple-spin scattering induced by…
We study magnon-polaron hybrid states, mediated by Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and magnetoelastic interactions, in a two-dimensional ferromagnetic insulator. The magnetic system consists of both in-plane and flexural acoustic and optical phonon…
The class of layered 3D-topological insulators have shown intriguingly anomalous temperature dependence in their thermal expansion coefficients. It was proposed that stacking faults are the origin of the observed anomalous thermal…
Phonon modes in crystals can have angular momenta in general. It nevertheless cancels in equilibrium when the time-reversal symmetry is preserved. In this paper we show that when a temperature gradient is applied and heat current flows in…
Elucidating the details of the electron-phonon coupling in semiconductors and insulators is a topic of pivotal interest, as it governs the transport mechanisms and is responsible for various phenomena such as spectral-weight transfers to…
