钛酸钡的光学性质及其体积效应

钛酸钡(BaTiO_3, BTO)是铁电物理学和材料学领域具有代表性的研究对象.本文基于准粒子相互作用的GW方法研究BTO材料的光学性质,并研究了等应变情况下的体积效应.第一性计算结果表明,考虑了激子效应的GW (格林函数(G)-库仑势(W))方法得到的激发态性质更接近实验结果.引入等应变调控,发现体积膨胀会导致光学吸收峰红移,体积压缩则光学吸收峰蓝移.同时,探究了体积变化对BTO块材的自发极化和电子结构的影响,发现体积膨胀会使钛原子的d轨道和氧原子的p轨道杂化更显著,进一步导致材料自发极化的增大,而体积压缩对自发极化和dp杂化的影响正好相反.通过比较研究,还发现等应变的体积效应对极化的影响不如等应力体积效应明显.     

Quantum anomalous Hall effect in real materials

Under a strong magnetic field,the quantum Hall(QH) effect can be observed in two-dimensional electronic gas systems.If the quantized Hall conductivity is acquired in a system without the need of an external magnetic field,then it will give rise to a new quantum state,the quantum anomalous Hall(QAH) state.The QAH state is a novel quantum state that is insulating in the bulk but exhibits unique conducting edge states topologically protected from backscattering and holds great potential for applications in low-power-consumption electronics.The realization of the QAH effect in real materials is of great significance.In this paper,we systematically review the theoretical proposals that have been brought forward to realize the QAH effect in various real material systems or structures,including magnetically doped topological insulators,graphene-based systems,silicene-based systems,two-dimensional organometallic frameworks,quantum wells,and functionalized Sb(111) monolayers,etc.Our paper can help our readers to quickly grasp the recent developments in this field.
