  1. 44. (I) Magneto-optical Kerr effect and signature of the chiral anomaly in a Weyl semimetal in magnetic field
    Prof. René Côté (Université de Sherbrooke)

    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    One striking property of the Landau level spectrum of a Weyl semimetal (WSM) is the existence of a chiral Landau level in which the electrons propagate unidirectionnaly along the magnetic field. This linearly dispersive level profoundly influences the optical properties of the WSM especially if it originates from a tilted Weyl cone. In this talk, we compare the behavior of the magneto-optical...

  2. 189. (I) Domain and Skyrmion bound states on the surface of magnetic topological insulators
    09/06/2021, 16:50
    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    A 3D topological insulator (TI) hosts an odd number of Dirac cones as its 2D surface states spectrum. The states are exponentially localized to the surface and their (pseudo)spin is locked to the surface momentum direction due to spin-orbit interaction. If the TI is also magnetic there are fixed magnetic moments on the surface, co-existing with the itinerant Dirac electrons. The magnetic...

  3. 361. An Analytical study of the role of lattice conductivity in the enhancement of the thermoelectric figure of merit
    Dr Najeh Jisrawi (King's University College, University of Western Ontario)

    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Oral (Non-Student) / Orale (non-étudiant(e))

    In an earlier study on the Wiedemann–Franz Law and the thermoelectric figure of merit (FoM), we studied the electronic effects in detail. We briefly investigated the role of the lattice thermal conductivity in enhancing the FoM and derived the characteristic equations in the form of an offset-logarithmic function (a special case of the generalized Lambert W function) [1]. This work follows up...

  4. 343. Kerr Nonlinearity and Energy Transport in Quantum Dots and Metallic Nanoparticles
    Ningyan Fang (University of Western Ontario)
    09/06/2021, 16:58
    Theoretical Physics / Physique théorique (DTP-DPT)
    Oral not-in-competition (Graduate Student) / Orale non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Recently, there has been considerable interest to study the nonlinear properties of ensembles of
    metallic nanoparticles and quantum dots [1,2]. Nonlinear optical properties can be used for
    processing the information content of data images, on which the research can potentially induce a
    revolution in electronic as well as photonic nanotechnology and nanomedicine. We have studied
    the energy...
