Abstract:
We have learned fundamental magneto-transport effects including ordinary Hall effect and Aharonov–Bohm effect in general physics and in quantum physics, respectively. Our recent works, however, predict these effects can be created artificially in nonmagnetic system in the absence of external magnetic field. In this talk, I will introduce (1) high-order Hall effect can be driven by the nanomembrane corrugations [1,2], and (2) the nontrivial phase naturally occurs in the quantum states of radial superlattices including carbon nanoscroll [3]. I will also introduce the related experimental observations that confirm our predications.
