Strain-Fluctuation-Induced Near-Quantization of Valley Hall Conductivity in Graphene Systems | Wen-Yu Shan

; | Date: |
15 May 2019 | Abstract: | We develop a theory of the valley Hall effect in high-quality graphene
samples, in which strain fluctuation-induced random gauge potentials have been
suggested as the dominant source of disorder. We find a near-quantized value of
valley Hall conductivity in the band transport regime, which originates from an
enhanced side jump of a Dirac electron when it scatters off the gauge
potential. By assuming a small residue charge density our theory reproduces
qualitatively the temperature- and gap-dependence of the observed valley Hall
effect at the charge neutral point. Our study suggests that the valley Hall
effect in graphene systems represents a new paradigm for the anomalous Hall
physics where gauge disorder plays an important role. | Source: | arXiv, 1905.5952 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
