3d Transition Metal Adsorption Induced Vally-polarized Anomalous Hall Effect in Germanene

Based on DFT+U and Berry curvature calculations, we study the electronic structures and topological properties of 3d transition metal (TM) atom (from Ti to Co) adsorbed germanene (TM-germanene). We find that valley-polarized anomalous hall effect (VAHE) can be realized in germanene by adsorbing Cr, Mn, or Co atom on its surface. A finite valley hall voltage can be easily detected in its nanoribbon, which is important for valleytronics devices. Moreover, different valley-polarized current and even reversible valley Hall voltage can be archived by shifting the Fermi energy of the systems. Such versatile features of the systems show potential in next generation electronics devices.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure

Two Dimensional Antiferromagnetic Chern Insulator NiRuCl6

Based on DFT and Berry curvature calculations, we predict that quantum anomalous hall effect (QAHE) can be realized in two dimensional anti-ferromagnetic (AFM) NiRuCl6 with zero net magnetic moment. By tuning spin-orbits coupling (SOC), we find that the topological properties of NiRuCl6 come from its energy band reversal. The results indicate that NiRuCl6 behaves as AFM Chern insulator and its spin-polarized electronic structure and strong spin-orbits coupling (SOC) are the origin of QAHE. Considering the compatibility between AFM and insulator, AFM Chern insulator is more suitable to realize high temperature QAHE because generally Neel temperature of AFM systems is more easily improved than Curie temperature of ferromagnetic (FM) systems. Due to the different magnetic coupling mechanism between FM and AFM Chern insulator, AFM Chern insulator provides a new way to archive high temperature QAHE in experiments.Comment: 6 pages, 6 figure

Second order quantum decoherence in the boson system

The second order quantum decoherence (SOQDC)is proposed as a novel description for the loss of quantum coherence only reflected by second order quantum correlations. By calculating the two-time correlation function, the phenomenon of SOQDC is studied in details for a simple model, a two boson system interacting with a reservoir composed of one or many bosons. The second order quantum decoherence effects can be observed in the sketched cavity QED experiment.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, revtex, corrected some typo

PILAE: A Non-gradient Descent Learning Scheme for Deep Feedforward Neural Networks

In this work, a non-gradient descent learning scheme is proposed for deep feedforward neural networks (DNN). As we known, autoencoder can be used as the building blocks of the multi-layer perceptron (MLP) deep neural network. So, the MLP will be taken as an example to illustrate the proposed scheme of pseudoinverse learning algorithm for autoencoder (PILAE) training. The PILAE with low rank approximation is a non-gradient based learning algorithm, and the encoder weight matrix is set to be the low rank approximation of the pseudoinverse of the input matrix, while the decoder weight matrix is calculated by the pseudoinverse learning algorithm. It is worth to note that only few network structure hyperparameters need to be tuned. Hence, the proposed algorithm can be regarded as a quasi-automated training algorithm which can be utilized in autonomous machine learning research field. The experimental results show that the proposed learning scheme for DNN can achieve better performance on considering the tradeoff between training efficiency and classification accuracy.Comment: This work is our effort toward to realize AutoM

Open Type Nodal line Topological Semimetal in Two Dimensional B2C

Topological semimetals, including Dirac semimetals, Weyl semimetals, and nodal line semimetals, receive enormous research interest due to their intrinsic topological nature and fascinating properties. In present work, with the help of density functional theory (DFT), we find that nodal line semimetals and Dirac semimetals can coexist in the low energy electron of two dimensional (2D) monolayer B2C. Intriguingly, besides type-I and type-II Dirac fermions, a kind of open nodal line appears around the Fermi level. The low energy electronic nature of B2C sheet can be described by a tight-binding (TB) model relied on the basis of B-py, pz and C-py, pz states. One of the most merit of the system is that the energy windows of these four types topological semimetals are different that can be easily distinguished in experiments. Moreover, the system provides an excellent platform for studying the interplay between different type semimetals.Comment: 9 pages, 6 figure

A criterion for testing multi-particle NPT entanglement

We revisit the criterion of multi-particle entanglement based on the overlaps of a given quantum state $\rho$ with maximally entangled states. For a system of $m$ particles, each with $N$ distinct states, we prove that $\rho$ is $m$-particle negative partial transpose (NPT) entangled, if there exists a maximally entangled state $|{\rm MES}>$, such that $<{\rm MES}|\rho|{\rm MES}>>{1}/{N}$. While this sufficiency condition is weaker than the Peres-Horodecki criterion in all cases, it applies to multi-particle systems, and becomes especially useful when the number of particles ($m$) is large. We also consider the converse of this criterion and illustrate its invalidity with counter examples.Comment: 4 page

Magnetic structure and domain conversion of quasi-2D frustrated antiferromagnet CuCrO2 probed by NMR

We have carried out 63,65Cu NMR spectra measurements in magnetic field up to about 15.5 T on single crystal of a multiferroic triangular-lattice antiferromagnet CuCrO2. The measurements were performed for perpendicular and parallel orientation of the magnetic field with respect to the c-axis of the crystal, and the detailed angle dependence of the spectra on the magnetic field direction within ab-plane was studied. The shape of the spectra can be well described in the model of spiral spin structure proposed by recent neutron diffraction experiments. When field is rotated perpendicular to crystal c-axis, we observed, directly for the first time, a remarkable reorientation of spin plane simultaneous with rotation of the incommensurate wavevector by quantitatively deducing the conversion of less energetically favorable domain to a more favorable one. At high enough fields parallel to c-axis, the data are consistent with either a field-induced commensurate spiral magnetic structure or an incommensurate spiral magnetic structure with a disorder in the c direction, suggesting that high fields may have influence on interplanar ordering.Comment: 8 pages, 10 figure

Magnetic phases of quasi-two-dimensional antiferromagnet on triangular lattice CuCrO2_2

We have carried out $^{63,65}$Cu NMR spectra measurements in magnetic field up to about 45~T on single crystal of a multiferroic triangular antiferromagnet CuCrO$_2$. The measurements were performed for magnetic fields aligned along the crystal $c$-axis. Field and temperature evolution of the spectral shape demonstrates a number of phase transitions. It was found that the 3D magnetic ordering takes place in the low field range ($H\lesssim15$~T). At higher fields magnetic structures form within individual triangular planes whereas the spin directions of the magnetic ions from neighboring planes are not correlated. It is established that the 2D-3D transition is hysteretic in field and temperature. Lineshape analysis reveals several possible magnetic structures existing within individual planes for different phases of CuCrO$_2$. Within certain regions on the magnetic H-T phase diagram of CuCrO$_2$ a 3D magnetic ordering with tensor order parameter is expected

Second Quantization of Cini Model for High Order Quantum Decoherence in Quantum Measurement

By making the second quantization for the Cini Model of quantum measurement without wave function collapse [M. Cini, Nuovo Cimento, B73 27(1983)], the second order quantum decoherence (SOQD) is studied with a two mode boson system interacting with an idealized apparatus composed by two quantum oscillators. In the classical limit that the apparatus is prepared in a Fock state with a very large quantum number, or in a coherent state with average quantum numbers large enough, the SOQD phenomenon appears similar to the first order case of quantum decoherence.Comment: 12 pages, revtex, 2 figure

Quantum teleportation using cluster states

A protocol of quantum communication is proposed in terms of the multi-qubit quantum teleportation through cluster states (Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{86}, 910 (2001)). Extending the cluster state based quantum teleportation on the basic unit of three qubits (or qudits), the corresponding multi-qubit network is constructed for both the qubits and qudits (multi-level) cases. The classical information costs to complete this communication task is also analyzed. It is also shown that this quantum communication protocol can be implemented in the spin-spin system on lattices.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
