Intervalley scattering causes electron migration from the optically populated K valley to the conduction band minimum at $Sigma$. Due to the electron-hole unbalance at the K point a plasma of quasi-free holes develops, which efficiently screens the interaction of the remaining excitons. We show that this plasma screening causes an ultrafast melting of the nonequilibrium consensate and that during melting coherent excitons and quasi-free electron-hole pairs coexist. The time-resolved spectral function does exhibit a conduction and excitonic sidebands of opposite convexity and relative spectral weight that changes in time. Both the dependence of the time-dependent conduction density on the laser intensity and the time-resolved spectral function agree with recent experiments.","PeriodicalId":8465,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86023041","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 this work, we develop a general procedure to compute the gauge fields in higher dimensions associated to low-dimensional systems with periodic (charge- and spin-) density wave modulations. We construct two-dimensional (2D) models with modulations that can be promoted to higher-order topological phases with $U(1)$ and $SU(2)$ gauge fields in 3D. Corner modes in our 2D models can be pumped by adiabatic sliding of the phase of the modulation, yielding hinge modes in the promoted models. We also examine a 3D Weyl semimetal (WSM) gapped by charge-density wave (CDW) order, possessing quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) surface states. We show that this 3D system is equivalent to a 4D nodal line system gapped by a $U(1)$ gauge field with a nonzero second Chern number. We explain the recently identified interpolation between inversion-symmetry protected phases of the 3D WSM gapped by CDWs using the corresponding 4D theory. Our results can extend the search for (higher-order) topological states in higher dimensions to density wave systems.","PeriodicalId":8465,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85768935","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 disorder-free limit, the Wigner crystal Hall angle is independent of crystal velocity, but when disorder is present, we find that Hall angle starts near zero at the depinning threshold and increases linearly with increasing drive before reaching a saturation close to the disorder free value at the highest drives. The drive dependence is the result of a side jump effect produced when the charges move over pinning sites. The magnitude of the side jump is reduced at the higher velocities. The drive dependent Hall angle is robust for a wide range of disorder parameters and should be a generic feature of classical charges driven in the presence of quenched disorder and a magnetic field.","PeriodicalId":8465,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86731250","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}

The neutron data reveal that the scattering is strongly affected by the high density of crystal defects inside the sample, which were created by the severe plastic deformation during the sample preparation. The defects cause a significant spin-misalignment scattering contribution. The corresponding magnetic correlation length, which characterizes the spatial magnetization fluctuations in real space, indicates an average defect size of 11 nm. In the remanent state, the stray fields around the defects cause spin disorder in the surrounding ferromagnetic bulk, with a penetration depth of around 22 nm. The range and amplitude of the disorder is systematically suppressed by an increasing external magnetic field. Our findings are supported by micromagnetic simulations, which, for the particular case of nonmagnetic defects (holes) embedded in a ferromagnetic Ni phase, further highlight the role of localized spin perturbations for the magnetic microstructure of defect-rich magnets such as high-pressure torsion materials.","PeriodicalId":8465,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75796985","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}

Here, we address this challenge by presenting a novel computational methodology for the inverse design of continuous two-dimensional square phononic metamaterials exhibiting C$_{4v}$ and C$_{2v}$ symmetry. This leads to the systematic design of square unit cell topologies exhibiting a double Dirac degeneracy, which enables topologically-protected interface propagation based on the quantum spin Hall effect (QSHE). Numerical simulations prove that helical edge states emerge at the interface between two topologically distinct square phononic metamaterials, which opens the possibility of QSHE-based pseudospin-dependent transport beyond hexagonal lattices.","PeriodicalId":8465,"journal":{"name":"arXiv: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80723839","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}

As an application, we calculate the one-loop optical conductivity of graphene taking into account the presence of ripples. Such ripples are modeled by curvature effects which can be incorporated by taking into account a suitable chemical potential.
