Scalar Spin Chirality from Dissipative Pumping and Lamb Shift Precession

Circulating currents in triangular triple quantum dots reverse repeatedly with bias even at zero magnetic flux and for a real Hamiltonian, a phenomenon whose origin has remained unclear. We show that dissipative tunneling prepares an orbital pseudospin, while virtual charge fluctuations generate a noncollinear Lamb field that rotates it toward the chiral direction. Bias changes their relative orientation and thereby reverses the current. This reservoir-induced orbital Hanle effect converts a nonchiral orbital polarization into scalar spin chirality, which an exact ground-multiplet identity links to the circulating current. Hierarchical-equations-of-motion calculations show that the low-bias reversal survives beyond the second-order weak-coupling description, while the quadratic growth of chirality after a sudden voltage switch identifies precession. More broadly, time-reversal-odd responses can emerge in open quantum systems from the interplay between dissipative state preparation and coherent precession.

Intrinsic violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law in interacting systems

The Wiedemann-Franz (WF) law dictates a universal ratio between thermal and electrical conductivities, is widely obeyed by Fermi liquid systems. Here, we identify a fundamental yet often overlooked, thermodynamic mechanism for the violation of WF law: the temperature-dependent renormalization of the electronic band structure. We demonstrate that the interaction-induced energy drift $\partialε_k/\partial T$, acts as an effective driving force that fundamentally decouples heat transport from charge transport. We derive a generalized transport relation linking the Lorenz ratio deviation directly to the thermoelectric response. Our findings provide a unified framework for understanding thermal transport in interacting topological phases and suggest the Lorenz ratio as a probe for distinguishing topological robustness from Fermi liquid instabilities.

Non-Markovian quantum Mpemba effect in strongly correlated quantum dots

Harnessing non-Markovian effects has emerged as a resource for quantum control, where a structured environment can act as a quantum memory. We investigate the quench dynamics from specific initial states to equilibrium steady states in strongly correlated quantum dot systems. The distance between quantum states is quantified using the Bures metric, which endows the space of reduced density matrices with a Riemannian geometric structure. Using the numerically exact hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) method, we demonstrate a quantum Mpemba effect arising from non-Markovianity. This effect is characterized by a relaxation slowdown due to information backflow from the bath to the system, which induces a pronounced memory effect. We show that the emergence of the non-Markovian quantum Mpemba effect on the approach to a strongly correlated steady state is determined by the interplay between the initial-state-dependent non-Markovianity and the initial geometric distance between states. Our results underscore the critical role of memory effects in quantum quench dynamics and suggest new pathways for controlling anomalous relaxation in open quantum systems.

General solution for the response of materials under radiation and tilted magnetic field: semi-classical regime

The Berry curvature dipole is well-known to cause Hall conductivity. This study expands on previous results to demonstrate how two- and three-dimensional materials react under a tilted magnetic field in the linear and nonlinear regimes. We show how the Hall effect has a quantum origin by deriving the general form of intrinsic and extrinsic currents in materials under a tilted magnetic field. Our focus is on determining the linear and nonlinear response of two-dimensional materials. We also demonstrate that as the result of the perpendicular component of the magnetic field a current resulted by both velocity and Berry curvature can occur in two-dimensional materials and topological crystalline insulators in second harmonic generation and ratchet responses. The findings of this research may provide insight into the transport characteristics of materials in the semi-classical regime and initiate a new chapter in linear and nonlinear Hall effects.

Magnon Landau-Zener tunnelling and spin current generation by electric field

To control the magnon transport in magnetic systems is of great interest in magnonics. Due to the feasibility of electric field, how to generate and manipulate magnon with pure electrical method is one of the most desired goals. Here we propose that the magnon spin current is generated by applying time-dependent electric field, where the coupling between the magnon and electric field is invoked via Aharonov-Casher effect. In particular, the magnon spin current is dominated by electric field component which perpendicular to the magnetization direction. We apply our theory to 1D ferromagnetic SSH model and show that the generated magnon spin current is closely related to the band geometry. Our findings expands the horizons of magnonics and electric-control-magnon mechanisms.

Magnon spin photogalvanic effect induced by Aharonov-Casher phase

Magnons are electrically neutral bosonic quasiparticles emerging as collective spin excitations of magnetically ordered materials, and play a central role in the next-generation spintronics owing to its obviating Joule heating. A difficult obstacle for quantum magnonics is that the magnons do not couple to the external electric field directly so that a direct electric manipulation via bias or gate voltage as in conventional charge-based devices seems not applicable. In this work, we propose a new mechanism in which magnons can be excited and controlled by electric field of light directly. Since the electric field of light can be tuned in a wide and easy way, the proposal is of great interest in realistic applications. We call it as the magnon spin photogalvanic effect (SPGE), which comes from five contributions: the Drude, Berry curvature dipole (BCD), injection, shift, and rectification, with distinct geometric origins. We further show that the responses to linearly-polarized or circularly-polarized light are determined by band-resolved quantum metric or Berry curvature, the two combined together just comprise of a quantum geometric tensor. The proposed magnon SPGE can be measured by a characterized topological phase transition. We also discuss a breathing kagome-lattice model of ferromagnets and suggest possible candidate materials to implement it.

An intrinsic nonlinear Ohmic current

It is known that intrinsic currents in magnetic metals often appear in the direction perpendicular to the external field for linear and nonlinear responses. Distinct from three kinds of known nonlinear currents, namely, the Drude contribution, the Berry curvature dipole induced current and the Berry connection polarization induced current, here we report a intrinsic nonlinear current with breaking time-reversal symmetry. This new kind of intrinsic nonlinear current from the nontrivial Berry connection polarizability may emerge in the longitudinal or transverse direction, and both are dissipative Ohmic currents. We unveil 66 magnetic point group symmetries that can accommodate such nonlinear current, and possible candidate materials are proposed. This theory is also applied to observe the nonlinear current we proposed in one- and two-dimensional Dirac systems as examples.

Field-induced Berry connection and planar Hall effect in tilted Weyl semimetals

We propose the linear and nonlinear planar Hall effect (PHE) in tilted Weyl semimetals in the presence of an in-plane magnetic and electric field, where the field-induced Berry connection (FBC) plays a key role. We show that the PHE is ascribed to the quantum metric, distinct from the well-known chiral anomaly-induced PHE arising from the Berry curvature. Using a tilting vector to describe the model, we demonstrate the constrains on the linear and nonlinear PHE by the tilting directions. The linear PHE is intrinsic that is determined by the topological properties of energy bands, whereas the nonlinear PHE is extrinsic. The predicted linear and nonlinear PHE are inherently different from others and may shed light on a deeper understanding on transport nature of the tilted Weyl semimetals.

Bias-induced chiral current and topological blockadein triple quantum dots

We theoretically investigate the quantum transport properties of a triangular triple quantum dot (TTQD) ring connected with two reservoirs by means of analytical derivation and accurate hierarchical-equations-of-motion calculation. A bias-induced chiral current in the absence of magnetic field is firstly demonstrated, which results from that the coupling between spin gauge field and spin current in the nonequilibrium TTQD induces a scalar spin chirality that lifts the chiral degeneracy and thus the time inversion symmetry. The chiral current is proved to oscillate with bias within the Coulomb blockade regime, which opens a possibility to control the chiral spin qubit by use of purely electrical manipulations. Then, a topological blockade of the transport current due to the localization of chiral states is elucidated by spectral function analysis. Finally, as a measurable character, the magnetoelectric susceptibility in our system is found about two orders of magnitude larger than that in a typical magnetoelectric material at low temperature.

Long-range Entanglement of Kondo Clouds in Open Triple Quantum Dots

We study entanglement of Kondo clouds in an open triple quantum dots (OTQDs) system based on the dissipaton equation of motion (DEOM) theory. A comprehensive picture of the long-range entanglement of Kondo clouds is sketched by the spectral functions, spin-spin correlation and dot occupancies of OTQDs. We find that for the configuration (N1,N2,N3) = (1, 0, 1), a conduction electrons peak occurs in the spectral function of intermediate QD in Kondo regime. This peak resulting from the overlapping of the two Kondo clouds forming from between the two peripheral QDs and leads, enhances with decreasing temperature and increasing dot-lead coupling. Both the spin-spin correlations between the two adjacent QDs and the two peripheral QDs owns negative values. It also confirms the physical picuture of the overlapping between left and right Kondo clouds via the intermediate QD. Moreover, the transition of the effective electron occupation and the spectral function of intermediate QD in Kondo regime also indicates the entanglement of Kondo clouds enhancing with decreasing temperature and increasing dot-lead coupling. This investigation will be beneficial to detect the Kondo clouds and to further explore Kondo physics in related experiment setups.

Ferromagnetic Phase in Nonequilibrium Quantum Dots

By nonperturbatively solving the nonequilibrium Anderson two-impurity model with the hierarchical equations of motion approach, we report a robust ferromagnetic (FM) phase in series-coupled double quantum dots, which can suppress the antiferromagnetic (AFM) phase and dominate the phase diagram at finite bias and detuning energy in the strongly correlated limit. The FM exchange interaction origins from the passive parallel spin arrangement caused by the Pauli exclusion principle during the electrons transport. At very low temperature, the Kondo screening of the magnetic moment in the FM phase induces some nonequilibrium Kondo effects in magnetic susceptibility, spectral functions and current. In the weakly correlated limit, the AFM phase is found still stable, therefore, a magnetic-field-free internal control of spin states can be expected through the continuous FM--AFM phase transition.

Precise simulation for single-hole spin control in semiconductor quantum dots

The precise simulation of the preparation, control, and readout of a single-hole spin is investigated via hierarchical equations of motion(HEOM) approach. By ionization of a resonantly excited electron-hole pair and tunneling the conduction level electrons into electrodes, a single-hole spin qubit is initialized. SU(2) control is achieved via the combination of Larmor procession of the hole spin in Voigt geometry magnetic field and rotation about the optical axis with a geometric phase induced by a picosecond laser pulse. Read-out of the qubit is implemented through photocurrent. We compared the whole simulation process with experiments, demonstrate the optimal of fidelity due to broadening effect.

Many-body Tunneling and Nonequilibrium Dynamics of Doublons in Strongly Correlated Quantum Dots

Quantum tunneling dominates coherent transport at low temperatures in many systems of great interest. In this work we report a many--body tunneling (MBT), by nonperturbatively solving the Anderson multi-impurity model, and identify it a fundamental tunneling process on top of the well--acknowledged sequential tunneling and cotunneling. We show that the MBT involves the dynamics of doublons in strongly correlated systems. Proportional to the numbers of dynamical doublons, the MBT can dominate the off--resonant transport in the strongly correlated regime. A $T^{3/2}$--dependence of the MBT current on temperature is uncovered and can be identified as a fingerprint of the MBT in experiments. We also prove that the MBT can support the coherent long--range tunneling of doublons, which is well consistent with recent experiments on ultracold atoms. As a fundamental physical process, the MBT is expected to play important roles in general quantum systems.

Long-range Exchange Interaction in Triple Quantum Dots in the Kondo Regime

Long-range interactions in triple quantum dots (TQDs) in Kondo regime are investigated by accurately solving the three-impurity Anderson model. For the occupation configuration of (N1,N2,N3) = (1, 0, 1), a long-range antiferromagnetic exchange interaction (JAF) is demonstrated and induces a continuous phase transition from the separated Kondo singlet (KS) to the long-range spin singlet (LSS) state between edge dots. The expression of JAF is analytically derived and numerically verified, according to which JAF can be conveniently manipulated via gate control of the detuning energy. The long-range entanglement of Kondo clouds are proved to be quite robust at strong inter-dot coupling limit. Under equilibrium condition, it induces an unexpected peak in the spectral function of the middle dot whose singly occupied level keeps much higher than the Fermi level. Under nonequilibrium condition, higher inter-dot tunneling barrier induces an anomalous enhancement of current. These novel features can be observed in routine experiments.

Non-perturbative Theory of Pauli Spin Blockade

Pauli spin blockade (PSB) is a significant physical effect in double quantum dot (DQD) systems. In this paper, we start from the fundamental quantum model of the DQD with the electron-electron interaction being considered, and then systematically study the PSB effect in DQD by using a recently developed non-perturbative method, the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) approach. The physical picture of the PSB is elucidated explicitly and the gate voltage manipulation is described minutely, which are both qualitatively consistent with the experimental measurements. When dotdot exchange interaction is involved, the PSB effect may be lifted by the strong antiferromagnetic exchange coupling.
