The classical Hall effect, the traditional means of determining charge-carrier sign and density in a conductor, requires a magnetic field to produce transverse voltages across a current-carrying wire. We show that along curved paths --…
We reexamine the problem of delocalization of two-dimensional electrons in the presence of random magnetic field. By introducing spatial correlations among random fluxes, a well-defined metal-insulator transition characterized by a…
Electric current flows parallel to the outer product of an applied electric field and temperature gradient, a phenomenon we call the nonlinear chiral thermo-electric (NCTE) Hall effect. We present a general microscopic formulation of this…
Symmetry is a cornerstone of condensed matter physics, fundamentally shaping the behavior of electronic systems and inducing the emergence of novel phenomena. The Hall effect, a key concept in this field, demonstrates how symmetry breaking,…
The nonlinear Hall effect has opened the door towards deeper understanding of topological states of matter. It can be observed as the double-frequency Hall voltage response to an ac longitudinal current in the presence of time-reversal…
In most conductors current flow perpendicular to electric field direction (Hall current) can be explained in terms of the Lorentz forces present when charged particles flow in an external magnetic field. However, as established in the very…
The metal-insulator transition (MIT) observed in two-dimensional (2D) systems is apparently contradictory to the well known scaling theory of localization. By investigating the conductance of disordered one-dimensional systems with a finite…
We consider interaction effects in a granular normal metal at not very low temperatures. Assuming that all weak localization effects are suppressed by the temperature we replace the initial Hamiltonian by a proper functional of phases and…
As the dimensions of a conductor approach the nano-scale, quantum effects will begin to dominate its behavior. This entails the exciting possibility of controlling the conductance of a device by direct manipulation of the electron wave…
This work reports a study of the nonlinear Hall Effect (HE) in the semimetallic ferromagnet EuB6. A distinct switch in its Hall resistivity slope is observed in the paramagnetic phase, which occurs at a single critical magnetization over a…
The influence of the interference of electron waves, which were scattered by single impurities, on nonlinear quantum conductance of metallic microconstrictions (as was recently investigated experimentally) is studied theoretically. The…
A detailed comparison is presented of the temperature dependence of the conductivity of dilute, strongly interacting electrons in two-dimensional silicon inversion layers in the metallic regime in the presence and in the absence of a…
We examine the impact of non-magnetic disorder on the electronic states of a multilayer structure comprising layers of both topological and conventional band insulators. Employing the Burkov-Balents model with renormalized tunneling…
A semimagnetic topological insulator -- a heterostructure combining a topological insulator with a ferromagnet -- exhibits a half-quantized Hall effect, characterized by a quantized Hall conductance of $\frac{1}{2}\frac{e^{2}}{h}$ (where…
We study nonperturbative interaction corrections to the thermodynamic quantities of multichannel disordered wires in the presence of the Coulomb interactions. Within the replica nonlinear $\sigma$-model (NL$\sigma$M) formalism, they arise…
A time-dependent electric field gives rise to a stationary non-equilibrium current I^{(2)} around a mesoscopic metal ring threaded by a magnetic flux. We show that this current, which is proportional to the intensity of the field, is…
We have studied the effect of perpendicular magnetic fields and temperatures on the nonlinear electronic transport in amorphous Ta superconducting thin films. The films exhibit a magnetic field induced metallic behavior intervening the…
Interaction driven symmetry breaking in a metallic (doped) Dirac system can manifest in the spontaneous gap generation at the nodal point buried below the Fermi level. Across this transition linear conductivity remains finite making its…
We investigate a transition between a two-dimensional topological insulator conduction state, characterized by a conductance $G=2$ (in fundamental units $e^2/h$) and a Chern insulator with $G=1$, induced by polarized magnetic impurities.…
In this paper, we investigate the effect of noise and disorder on the efficiency of excitation energy transfer (EET) in a $N=5$ sites linear chain with "static" dipole-dipole couplings. In fact, here, the disordered chain is a toy model for…
