摘要

该文基于Kagome晶格的紧束缚模型和Bogoliubov-de Gennes方程,使用数值对角化方法系统地研究了自旋轨道耦合(SOC)作用对Kagome晶格拓扑超导态的影响.通过计算得到的块体Kagome超导体的超导带隙(Egap)和陈数(NC),以及Kagome纳米条带的能谱,深入分析了 Rashba自旋轨道耦合(RSOC)和本征自旋轨道耦合(ISOC)在手性d+id波Kagome超导体中引起的拓扑相变以及边界态发生的演化.结果表明,RSOC可以引起NC从4转变到-2的拓扑相变,并产生新的边界态,同时引发原来的边界态向拓扑平庸的演化.这种能够被ISOC破坏且穿过了零能级的平庸边界态导致了 NC与边界态数目的不对应.在ISOC和RSOC的共同作用下会引起丰富的拓扑相变,但ISOC不能破坏或产生受粒子空穴对称性保护的边界态,因此在边界态上无法反映这些拓扑相变.

Abstract

Based on the tight-binding model of Kagome lattice and Bogoliubov-de Gennes equation,this paper investigates systematically the effect of spin-orbit coupling(SOC)on a topological superconducting(TSC)state of Kagome lattice through the numerical diagonalization method.By calculating the supercon-ducting gap(Egap)and the Chern number(NC)of the Kagome bulk,and the energy spectra of the Kagome nanoribbon,the topological phase transition and the evolution of the edge states induced by Rashba SOC(RSOC)and intrinsic SOC(ISOC)on a chiral d+id wave Kagome superconductor are analyzed.The results indicate that the RSOC can induce a new TSC phase with Nc from-2 to 4,a new topologically pro-tected edge mode emerges,and the original topological edge modes turn into trivial simultaneously.Such zero-energy-crossed trivial edge states can be break by ISOC and cause the mismatch between Nc and the number of edge states.Rich TSC phases emerge when RSOC and ISOC are both presented,but the ISOC cannot break nor induce the particle-hole symmetry protected edge states,thus the topological phase transi-tions cannot be reflected on the edge states.
