  • Week 10: Oct 27, 2016 Preamble to Quantum Hall Effect: Exotic
    Week 10: Oct 27, 2016 Preamble to Quantum Hall Effect: Exotic Phenomenon in Quantum Physics The quantum Hall effect is one of the most remarkable of all quantum-matter phenomena, quite unanticipated by the physics community at the time of its discovery in 1980. This very surprising discovery earned von Klitzing the Nobel Prize in physics in 1985. The basic experimental observation is the quantization of resistance, in two-dimensional systems, to an extreme precision, irrespective of the sample’s shape and of its degree of purity. This intriguing phenomenon is a manifestation of quantum mechanics on a macroscopic scale, and for that reason, it rivals superconductivity and Bose–Einstein condensation in its fundamental importance. As we will see later in this class, that this effect is an example of Berry phase and the “quanta” that appear in the quantization of Hall conductivity are the topological integers that emerge from quantum analog of Gauss-Bonnet theorem. This years Nobel prize to David Thouless is for explaining this exotic quantization in terms of topology. It turns out that the classical and quantum anholonomy are described by the same mathematics. To understand that, we need to introduce the concept of “curvature. As we know, it is the curved space that leads to anholonomy in classical physics. This allows us to define curvature in quantum physics. That is, using the concept of anholonomy in quantum physics, we can define the concept of curvature in quantum physics – that is, in Hilbert space. Curvature leads us to Topological Invariants that tells us that anholonomy may have its roots in topology.

  • Understanding & Applying Hall Effect Sensor Datasheets
    Application Report SLIA086 – July 2014 Understanding & Applying Hall Effect Sensor Datasheets Ross Eisenbeis Motor Drive Business Unit ABSTRACT Hall effect sensors measure magnetic fields, and their datasheet parameters can initially be difficult to understand and apply toward system design. This article provides a baseline of information. Units A magnet produces a magnetic field that travels from the North pole to the South pole. The total amount of field through a 2-dimensional slice is the “flux”, in units of weber. Webers per square meter describes flux density, in units of tesla (T). The unit of gauss (G) also describes flux density, where 1 T = 10000 G. In millitesla, 1 mT = 10 G. Tesla is the official SI unit, and it’s used by TI datasheets, but many other sources use gauss. Practical Concepts The closer you are to a magnet, the higher the flux density. The flux density at the surface of the magnet depends on its material and the magnetization amount. Typical magnets have surface fields between 40 to 600 mT. At a given distance, physically large magnets project a larger flux density. Polarity The symbol “B” is used for flux density. TI Hall sensors use the convention that magnetic fields traveling from the bottom of the device through the top are “positive B”, and fields traveling from the top to the bottom of the device are “negative B”. Only the perpendicular vector component of the magnetic field is sensed by the internal element. N S S N B > 0 mT B < 0 mT Figure 1. Polarity of field directions 1 Digital Hall Sensor Functionality Digital Hall Sensor Functionality Digital Hall sensors have an open-drain output that pulls Low if B exceeds the threshold BOP (the Operate Point).

    Hall effect metamaterials: guiding fields in the unit cell Marc Briane, Rennes, France Christian Kern, KIT, Germany Muamer Kadic, FEMTO-ST, France Graeme Milton, University of Utah Martin Wegener, KIT, Germany Group of Martin Wegener Group of Julia Greer Wegener (2018): Metamaterials are rationally designed composites made of tailored building blocks or unit cells, which are composed of one or more constituent bulk materials. The metamaterial properties go beyond those of the ingredient materials – qualitatively or quantitatively. With an addition: ….The properties of the metamaterial can be mapped onto effective-medium parameters Metamaterials are not new: -Dispersions of metallic particles for optical effects in stained glasses (Maxwell-Garnett, 1904 ) -Bubbly fluids for absorbing sound (masking submarine prop. noise) -Split ring resonators for artificial magnetic permeability (Schelkunoff and Friis, 1952) -Wire metamaterials with artificial electric permittivity (Brown, 1953) -Metamaterials with negative and anisotropic mass densities (Auriault and Bonnet, 1985, 1994) -Metamaterials with negative Poisson’s ratio (Lakes 1987, Milton 1992) What is new is the unprecedented ability to tailor-make structures the explosion of interest, and the variety of emerging novel directions. One can get a similar effect for poroelasticity Qu, et.al 2017 New classes of elastic materials (with Cherkaev, 1995) Like a fluid it only supports one loading, unlike a fluid that loading may be anisotropic. Desired support of a given anisotropic loading is achieved by moving P to another position in the unit cell. KEY POINT is the coordination number of 4 at each vertex: the tension in one double cone connector, by balance of forces, determines uniquely the tension in the other 3 connecting double cones, and by induction the entire average stress field in the material.

Two prominent ones are Prange and Girvin, “The Quantum Hall Effect” • This is a collection of articles by most of the main players circa 1990. The basics are described well but there’s nothing about Chern-Simons theories or the importance of the edge modes. J. K. Jain, “Composite Fermions” • As the title suggests, this book focuses on the composite fermion approach as a lens through which to view all aspects of the quantum Hall effect. It has many good explanations but doesn’t cover the more field theoretic aspects of the subject. There are also a number of good multi-purpose condensed matter textbooks which contain extensive descriptions of the quantum Hall effect. Two, in particular, stand out: Eduardo Fradkin, Field Theories of Condensed Matter Physics • Xiao-Gang Wen, Quantum Field Theory of Many-Body Systems: From the Origin • of Sound to an Origin of Light and Electrons Several excellent lecture notes covering the various topics discussed in these lec- tures are available on the web.

China 4School of Materials Science and Engineering, Beihang University, Beijing 100191, P. R. China Abstract. Non-monotonic dependence of anomalous Hall resistivity on temperature and magnetization, including a sign change, was observed in Fe/Gd bilayers. To understand the intriguing observations, we fabricated the Fe/Gd bilayers and single layers of Fe and Gd simultaneously. The temperature and field dependences of longitudinal resistivity, Hall resistivity and magnetization in these films have also been carefully measured. The analysis of these data reveals that these intriguing features are due to the opposite signs of Hall resistivity/or spin polarization and different Curie temperatures of Fe and Gd single- layer films.

  • Spin Hall Effect
    Spin Hall Effect M. I. Dyakonov Université Montpellier II, CNRS, 34095 Montpellier, France 1. Introduction The Spin Hall Effect originates from the coupling of the charge and spin currents due to spin-orbit interaction. It was predicted in 1971 by Dyakonov and 1,2 Perel. Following the suggestion in Ref. 3, the first experiments in this domain were done by Fleisher's group at Ioffe Institute in Saint Petersburg, 4,5 providing the first observation of what is now called the Inverse Spin Hall Effect. As to the Spin Hall Effect itself, it had to wait for 33 years before it was experimentally observed7 by two groups in Santa Barbara (US) 6 and in Cambridge (UK). 7 These observations aroused considerable interest and triggered intense research, both experimental and theoretical, with hundreds of publications. The Spin Hall Effect consists in spin accumulation at the lateral boundaries of a current-carrying conductor, the directions of the spins being opposite at the opposing boundaries, see Fig. 1. For a cylindrical wire the spins wind around the surface. The boundary spin polarization is proportional to the current and changes sign when the direction of the current is reversed. j Figure 1. The Spin Hall Effect. An electrical current induces spin accumulation at the lateral boundaries of the sample. In a cylindrical wire the spins wind around the surface, like the lines of the magnetic field produced by the current. However the value of the spin polarization is much greater than the (usually negligible) equilibrium spin polarization in this magnetic field. 8 The term “Spin Hall Effect” was introduced by Hirsch in 1999.
