In many previous studies on the plasmonic response, the role of the longitudinal field has been focused almost exclusively on the light-induced plasmonic phenomena, e.g., hot-carrier generation. In our previous study [Phys. Rev. B 105, 165408 (2022)], we have revealed the significant contribution of the transverse electromagnetic field to connect plasmons and electron-hole pairs in nanostructures based on the self-consistent and nonlocal response theory. In this study, we examine how this contribution appears depending on the system parameters, e.g., length and refractive index. The elucidation of roles of coherent coupling between the collective and individual excitations by the transverse field will lead to the principle of controlling bidirectional energy transfer between the plasmons and electron-hole pairs, which could significantly enhance hot-carrier generation efficiency.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139282592","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the allowed intervalley transmission, the difference in the phase of the decay factor prefers only one of the valleys in the output according to the overlapped length. These results suggest that the band gap with no edge state is a new platform of valleytronics.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139307918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although its emergence requires neither spatial inversion nor time-reversal symmetry breakings, unconventional transverse responses between the conjugate physical quantities have been proposed, which are qualitatively different from those in multiferroic systems without both spatial inversion and time-reversal symmetries. We theoretically investigate a general relationship between ferroaxial ordering and its characteristic response tensor. We show that various rotational responses corresponding to an antisymmetric tensor component are related to the ferroaxial ordering based on symmetry analysis. Among them, we propose that second-order nonlinear magnetostriction, where the strain is induced by a second-order magnetic field, is one of the experimental setups to identify the ferroaxial ordering. We show its temperature and magnetic-field-angle dependence by analyzing a fundamental $d$-orbital model under the tetragonal symmetry.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139314787","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Pr$_3$Ru$_4$Sn$_{13}$ has been synthesized by flux growth and characterized by single X-ray, powder X-ray, and powder neutron diffraction measurements. The compound adopts a Yb$_3$Rh$_4$Sn$_{13}$-type structure with a cubic Pm$bar{3}$n. From the magnetization at 1 T, the effective magnetic moment was estimated to be 3.58 $mu _B$ per Pr$^{3+}$, suggesting that the magnetism is mainly contributed by Pr$^{3+}$ ions. The specific heat and magnetization show an anomaly at $T_{N} = 7.5$ ~ K owing to the phase transition. The muon spin rotation and relaxation ($mu$SR) time spectra exhibit clear oscillations below $T_N$. This suggests that the phase is magnetically ordered. The volume fraction of the magnetic phase estimated from the initial asymmetry is around ten percent. In addition, spin fluctuations were observed at low temperatures. These results provide microscopic evidence that the material is closest to the antiferromagnetically quantum critical point with a partial order among Pr$_3$$T_4$Sn$_{13}$ ($T= $ Co, Ru, Rh).","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139322593","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Theoretically and experimentally it has been suggested that the system exhibits characteristics of a three-dimensional Dirac semimetal as a consequence of broken time-reversal symmetry and inversion symmetry. Here, we perform a theoretical calculation of the magnetoconductivity under an in-plane magnetic field and demonstrate that the system displays a planar Hall effect. Our calculations are based on a realistic model for $alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ incorporating interlayer tunneling and the tilt of the Dirac cone. Given that the planar Hall effect is anticipated as a consequence of chiral anomaly, our findings provide support for the classification of $alpha$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ as a three-dimensional Dirac semimetal.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139322459","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To analyze the relaxation process after the photo-excitation of electrons, we employ the nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). We find the backward energy flow during the relaxation, where the direction of energy transfer between electrons and hot-phonons is reversed. To clarify the microscopic mechanism of the backward energy flow, we introduce the approximated energy flows, which are calculated with the gradient and quasiparticle approximations and are related to the nonequilibrium distribution functions. We compare these approximated energy flows with the full energy flows calculated from the nonequilibrium DMFT. We find that, in the weak electron-hot-phonon coupling regime, the full and approximated energy flows are almost the same, meaning that the relaxation dynamics can be correctly understood in terms of the nonequilibrium distribution functions. As the strength of the electron-hot-phonon coupling increases, the approximated energy flow fails to qualitatively reproduce the full energy flow. This indicates that the microscopic origin of the energy flow cannot be solely explained by the nonequilibrium distribution functions. By comparing the energy flows with different levels of approximation, we reveal the role of the gradient and quasiparticle approximations.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139355758","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein we propose a hybrid optimization method, which utilizes the advantages of both types. In this hybrid optimization method, the preprocessing step is performed by solving the non-quantum-annealing Ising machine multiple times. Then sub-Ising models with a reduced size by spin fixing are solved using a quantum annealer. The performance of the hybrid optimization method is evaluated via simulations using Simulated Annealing (SA) as a non-quantum-type Ising machine and D-Wave Advantage as a quantum annealer. Additionally, we investigate the parameter dependence of the proposed hybrid optimization method. The hybrid optimization method outperforms the preprocessing SA and the quantum annealing machine alone in fully connected random Ising models.","PeriodicalId":509167,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Physical Society of Japan","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139370337","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
