  1. 1. Topological Phase Transitions in Magnetic Nanostructures of Dirac Materials

    Författare :Nezhat Pournaghavi; Carlo M. Canali; Michael Flatté; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Topological insulators; Magnetic materials; Quantum anomalous Hall effect; Topological magneto electric effect; Dirac semimetals; Weyl semimetals; Condensed Matter Physics; Kondenserade materians fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Over the past two decades, the discovery of topological Dirac materials, such as topological insulators and semimetals, has defined a new paradigm in condensed matter physics and established new platforms for realizing spin electronic devices and quantum computing. The novel quantum properties of these materials, which are mainly due to the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling, are invariant under topological transformations, making them more resilient to structural disorder, electromagnetic and thermal fluctuations in comparison to the conventional silicon-based materials.

  3. 2. Linear response theory : from black hole thermalization to Weyl semimetals

    Författare :Jorge Laraña Aragón; Bo Sundborg; Edwin Langman; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Linear response theory is an incredibly powerful calculation tool. We apply this framework in quantum field theory to a variety of models originated from distinct areas in theoretical physics and for different reasons. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Anomaly and Topology : On the axial anomaly, domain wall dynamics, and local topological markers in quantum matter

    Författare :Julia D. Hannukainen; Jens H. Bardarson; Adolfo G. Grushin; Teemu Ojanen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chiral anomaly; axial anomaly; topological phases of matter; Weyl semimetals; magnetic domain walls; local topological markers;

    Sammanfattning : Chiral anomalies and topological phases of matter form the basis of the research presented in this dissertation. The chiral anomaly is considered both in the context of magnetic Weyl semimetals and in the context of non-Hermitian Dirac actions. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Knots and Transport in Topological Matter

    Författare :Marcus Stålhammar; Emil Johansson Bergholtz; Christiane Morais Smith; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Transport; Knots; Topology; non-Hermiticity; Weyl semimetals; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : Topology has manifestations in physics ranging from the field of condensed matter to photonics. This dissertation provides a two-fold study on the impact of topology in Hermitian and non-Hermitian band structures. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Topology Meets Frustration : Exact Solutions for Topological Surface States on Geometrically Frustrated Lattices

    Författare :Flore Kiki Kunst; Emil Bergholtz; Jack Lidmar; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Topology; boundary states; surface states; edge states; Chern insulator; Weyl semimetal; Theoretical Physics; teoretisk fysik;

    Sammanfattning : One of the main features of topological phases is the presence of robust boundary states that are protected by a topological invariant. Famous examples of such states are the chiral edge states of a Chern insulator, the helical edge states of a two-dimensional Z2 insulator, and the Fermi arcs of Weyl semimetals. LÄS MER
