We present a quantum theory of phonon magnetic moment in doped Dirac semimetals. Our theory is based on an emergent gauge field approach to the electron-phonon coupling, applicable to both gapless and gapped systems. We find that the…
Electrons in two-dimensional (2D) Dirac materials carry local band geometric quantities, such as the Berry curvature and orbital magnetic moments, which, combined with electron-phonon coupling, may affect the phonon dynamics in an unusual…
Circularly polarized phonons, characterized by nonzero angular momenta and magnetic moments, have attracted extensive attention. However, a long-standing critical issue in this field is the lack of an approach to accurately calculate phonon…
We investigated the magnetoterahertz response of the Dirac semimetal Cd$_3$As$_2$ and observed a particularly low frequency optical phonon, as well as a very prominent and field sensitive cyclotron resonance. As the cyclotron frequency is…
Coherent coupling of Dirac fermion magneto-excitons with an optical phonon is observed in graphite as marked magnetic-field dependent splittings and anti-crossing behavior of the two coupled modes. The sharp magneto-phonon resonance occurs…
The traditional theory of magnetic moments for chiral phonons is based on the picture of the circular motion of the Born effective charge, typically yielding a small fractional value of the nuclear magneton. Here we investigate the…
A deformation of a graphene sheet changes more than the positions of the atoms. In the low-energy Dirac theory it also produces geometric electron-phonon vertices. One of these vertices acts as an emergent phonon gauge field, $\calA_\mu$,…
In ionic materials, circularly polarized phonons carry orbital magnetic moments that arise from circular motions of the ions, and which interact with other magnetic moments or fields. Here, we calculate the orbital magnetic moments of…
Time-dependent rotational electric polarizations have been proposed to generate temporally varying magnetic moments, for example, through a combination of ferroelectric polarization and optical phonons. This phenomenon has been called…
Any departure from graphene's flatness leads to the emergence of artificial gauge fields that act on the motion of the Dirac fermions through an associated pseudomagnetic field. Here, we demonstrate the tunability of strong gauge fields in…
The phonon induced anomalous Hall or thermal Hall effects have been observed in various systems in recent experiments. However, the theoretical studies on this subject are very scarce and incomplete. In this work, we present a systematic…
We analyze the coupling of elastic lattice deformations to the magnon degrees of freedom of magnon Dirac materials. For a Honeycomb ferromagnet we find that, as it happens in the case of graphene, elastic gauge fields appear coupled to the…
Despite the growing interest in phonon angular momentum (AM) in recent years, current studies remain limited to a few materials due to the constraints imposed by time reversal symmetry on macroscopic phonon AM. In this work, we…
Fermions with one and two Dirac nodes are coupled to in-plane phonons to study a spontaneous transition into the Hall insulating phase. At sufficiently strong electron-phonon interaction a gap appears in the spectrum of fermions, signaling…
The direct, ultrafast excitation of polar phonons with electromagnetic radiation is a potent strategy for controlling the properties of a wide range of materials, particularly in the context of influencing their magnetic behavior. Here, we…
Dirac semimetals associated with bulk Dirac fermions are well-known in topological electronic systems. In sharp contrast, three-dimensional (3D) Dirac phonons in crystalline solids are still unavailable. Here we perform symmetry arguments…
The surface half-quantum Hall effect, a hallmark consequence of axion electrodynamics, can be induced by gapping out the surface states of topological insulators through surface magnetization, and has led to a variety of topological…
We develop a nonadiabatic theory of phonon magnetic moments applicable to both insulators and metals. By relating the phonon magnetic moment to the force-velocity response of ions in a magnetic field, we derive a gauge-invariant expression…
We consider the recently discovered Dirac semimetals with two Dirac points $\pm{\bf K}$. In the presence of elastic deformations each fermion propagates in a curved space, whose metric is defined by the expansion of the effective…
We group materials into five symmetry classes and determine in which of these classes phonons carry angular momentum in the Brillouin zone, away from a high-symmetry point, line, or plane. In some materials phonons acquire angular momentum…
