Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed the quantum-conducting phenomena and exotic optical responses driven by spontaneous symmetry breaking of space-time inversion symmetry for f- and d-electron systems with strong spin-orbit coupling. We have elucidated their mechanism from the microscopic point of view. Especially, we have achieved the following results: (1) the prediction of magneto-current effect in UNi4B showing vortex-like magnetic ordering, which is regards as the ferroic toroidal ordering, (2) the prediction of non-reciprocal magnon in the zig-zag structure corresponding to α-Cu2V2O7, (3) microscopic understanding for peculiar magneto-electric effect observed in Co4Nb2O9, (4) comprehensive understanding of cross correlations based on two-band Hubbard model on the honeycomb lattice. Moreover, we have developed the theoretical framework of argumented multipoles, namely, cluster and hybrid multipoles, which are very useful to analyze a variety of cross-correlated phenomena in s systematic way.
