We report interlayer electronic transport in CaMnBi$_{2}$ single crystals. Quantum oscillations and angular magnetoresistance suggest coherent electronic conduction and valley polarized conduction of Dirac states. Small cyclotron mass, large mobility of carriers and nontrivial Berrys phase are consistent with the presence of Dirac fermions on the side wall of the warped cylindrical Fermi surface. Similar to SrMnBi$_{2}$ that features an anisotropic Dirac cone, our results suggest that magnetic field-induced changes in the interlayer conduction are also present in layered bismuth-based materials with zero-energy line in momentum space created by the staggered alkaline earth atoms.

In nearly compensated graphene, disorder-assisted electron-phonon scattering or supercollisions are responsible for both quasiparticle recombination and energy relaxation. Within the hydrodynamic approach, these processes contribute weak decay terms to the continuity equations at local equilibrium, i.e., at the level of ideal hydrodynamics. Here we report the derivation of the decay term due to weak violation of energy conservation. Such terms have to be considered on equal footing with the well-known recombination terms due to nonconservation of the number of particles in each band. At high enough temperatures in the hydrodynamic regime supercollisions dominate both types of the interaction). We also discuss the contribution of supercollisions to the heat transfer equation (generalizing the continuity equation for the energy density in viscous hydrodynamics).
Motivated by the increasing number of systems featuring multiple bands at low energy, we address the Boltzmann approach to transport in a multiband weakly disordered non-interacting crystal subject to a small electric field. In general, the multiband structure leads to a considerable complication of the Boltzmann equation. Indeed, even in the presence of elastic impurity scattering one needs to compute for each band and momentum the dressed velocities, which account for scattering events. Here we provide a semi-analytical solution to the Boltzmann equation that reduces such a challenging numerical task to the much simpler numerical computation of a small tensor whose dimension is set by the number of bands at the Fermi level. This approach further allows us to discuss the interplay of symmetry and disorder for different impurity types, including those originating from random-matrix Wigner ensembles. As an example of application we consider the 2D isotropic Rashba metal and we discuss, in a full analytical fashion, how different types of disorder may break the exactness of the relaxation-time approximation and induce transport anisotropy, and may allow one to identify the presence of spin-orbit coupling as deviations of the conductivity from Drude behavior.
By using the first-principles method based on density of functional theory, we study the electronic properties of twisted bilayer graphene with some specific twist angles and interlayer spacings. With the decrease of the twist angle(the unit cell bec omes larger), the energy band becomes narrower and Coulomb repulsion increases, leading to the enhancement of electronic correlation; On the other hand, as the interlayer spacing decreases and the interlayer coupling becomes stronger, the correlation becomes stronger. By tuning the interlayer coupling, we can realize the strongly correlated state with the band width less than 0.01 eV in medium-sized Moire cell of twisted bilayer graphene. These results demonstrate that the strength of electronic correlation in twisted bilayer graphene is closely related to two factors: the size of unit cell and the distance between layers. Consequently, a conclusion can be drawn that the strong electronic correlation in twisted bilayer graphene originates from the synergistic effect of the large size of Moire cell and strong interlayer coupling on its electronic structure.
Moire engineering has recently emerged as a capable approach to control quantum phenomena in condensed matter systems. In van der Waals heterostructures, moire patterns can be formed by lattice misorientation between adjacent atomic layers, creating long range electronic order. To date, moire engineering has been executed solely in stacked van der Waals multilayers. Herein, we describe our discovery of electronic moire patterns in films of a prototypical magnetoresistive oxide La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) epitaxially grown on LaAlO3 (LAO) substrates. Using scanning probe nano-imaging, we observe microscopic moire profiles attributed to the coexistence and interaction of two distinct incommensurate patterns of strain modulation within these films. The net effect is that both electronic conductivity and ferromagnetism of LSMO are modulated by periodic moire textures extending over mesoscopic scales. Our work provides an entirely new route with potential to achieve spatially patterned electronic textures on demand in strained epitaxial materials.
We study theoretically the transport properties of a three-dimensional spin texture made from three orthogonal helices, which is essentially a lattice of monopole-antimonopole pairs connected by Skyrmion strings. This spin structure is proposed for M nGe based on the neutron scattering experiment as well as the Lorentz transmission electron microscopy observation. Equipped with a sophisticated spectral analysis method, we adopt finite temperature Greens function technique to calculate the longitudinal dc electric transport in such system. We consider conduction electrons interacting with spin waves of the topologically nontrivial spin texture, wherein fluctuations of monopolar emergent magnetic field enter. We study in detail the behavior of electric resistivity under the influence of temperature, external magnetic field and a characteristic monopole motion, especially a novel magnetoresistivity effect describing the latest experimental observations in MnGe, wherein a topological phase transition signifying strong correlation is identified.
