Ultrafast dynamics of indirect exchange interaction and transient spin current generation in a two-dimensional electron gas

2017

We predict that a driven localized magnetic moment coupled to mobile carriers of a metal or semiconductor surface or interface generates a specific dynamics of the carrier spin density as well as a transient spin current. Numerical results illustrate the time-dependent Friedel oscillations and the associated ultrafast Ruderman-Kittel- Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction as well as the spin current generated by the impurity spin flipping. Retardation effects of the indirect exchange interaction of the impurity spins via the conduction electrons are found and discussed. Our results point to an alternative way of controlling the local magnetization on a subpicosecond time scale via appropriate tu…

Two-dimensional electron gas at the LaAlO$_3$/SrTiO$_3$ inteface with a potential barrier

2015

We present a tight binding description of electronic properties of the interface between LaAlO$_3$ (LAO) and SrTiO$_3$ (STO). The description assumes LAO and STO perovskites as sets of atomic layers in the $x$-$y$ plane, which are weakly coupled by an interlayer hopping term along the $z$ axis. The interface is described by an additional potential, $U_0$, which simulates a planar defect. Physically, the interfacial potential can result from either a mechanical stress at the interface or other structural imperfections. We show that depending on the potential strength, charge carriers (electrons or holes) may form an energy band which is localized at the interface and is within the band gaps …

Macroscopic description of the two-dimensionalLaAlO3/SrTiO3interface

2016

We propose a simple analytical model to explain the possible appearance of the metallic conductivity in the two-dimensional (2D) ${\mathrm{LaAlO}}_{3}/{\mathrm{SrTiO}}_{3}$ interface. Our model considers the interface within a macroscopic approach, which is usual for semiconductor heterojunctions and is based on drift-diffusion equations. The solution of these equations allows us to obtain the positions of band edges as a function of distances from the interface. We show that for the 2D metallic conductivity to appear at the interface, the constituting substances should have the same type (either electronic or hole) of conductivity; in the opposite case the possible transition to metallic p…

Time-resolved buildup of twisted indirect exchange interaction in two-dimensional systems

2019

We study theoretically the time-domain dynamics of the spin-dependent Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction between driven magnetic impurities localized in a spin-orbit-coupled two-dimensional system. Particular attention is given to the influence of the spin-orbit coupling (SOC) on the system's dynamical response to a time-dependent precessional motion of the localized magnetic moment. We show that, via the RKKY mechanism, a flip of the spin $z$ component of one localized moment affects all $x,\phantom{\rule{4pt}{0ex}}y$, and $z$ spin components of the other localized moment. The Friedel oscillations and the transient spin current triggered by the time-varying localized spin dep…
