3 Outline 1. Anomalous velocity 2. The valley Hall effect 3. Valley-selective circular dichroism of monolayer MoS2 4. The valley Hall effect in MoS2 transistors 3

4 1. Anomalous velocity

5 Berry curvature parameter set : instantaneous eigenstates of Hamiltonian at each value of i.e. 5

6 Hamiltonian and eigenstates Independent electron approximation periodic potential with Bloch s theorem: -dependent Hamiltonian: band index crystal momentum parameter space: Brillouin zone, 6 : basis function

7 Wave function : changes slowly in time time-dependent Scrhodinger equation: instantaneous eigenstates 7

8 First-order wave function We have an initial condition: For Integrate by parts 8

9 The average velocity Apart from the overall phase factor, velocity operator in the q representation : Berry curvature

10 uniform vector potential With electric field q-space gauge invariant crystal momentum: eigenstates: preserve the translational symmetry,

11 Anomalous velocity Berry curvature: anomalous velocity: transverse to the electric field give rise a Hall current

12 2. The valley Hall effect

13 Symmetry consideration time-reversal sym. spatial inversion sym. time-reversal and spatial inversion symmetry

14 (a) 2-valley structure

15 Valley Hall effect valley index: Valley Hall Effect: valley Hall conductivity valley current: time reversal inversion symmetry

16 Berry curvature of graphene In low energy, 1 80 (ev) (a 2 ) (b) kx ~ ~ ~ ~ ( / a)

17 Valley Hall current Anomalous velocity: Valley Hall current!

18 Pathway to valleytronics It provides a new and standard pathway to potential applications of valleytronics in a broad class of semiconductors.

19 3. Valley-selective circular dichroism of monolayer MoS2 [Ting Cao, Ji Feng, Junren Shi, Qian Niu, Enge Wang,(2012)]

20 Graphene? graphene: inversion symmetry Unprecedented control of the lattice structure on the scale of a single atom is required. Valleytronics in graphene is very difficult

30 Doping dependence of the anomalous Hall conductivity

31 Open question What does cause the observed quick drop of Hall conductance at laser frequency? Inter-corn scattering? What are the relevant sources of scattering present in MoS 2 2, and what are their relative strengths? What are the next steps towards the long standing goal of valleytronics?
