Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Phonon angular momentum plays an important role as a pseudo-spin degree of freedom in phononic system. According to analogy of electronic system, number of novel phonon responses may emerge by taking this concept into account. Here we report several results such as phononic Rashba state in a chiral magnet, phonon Hall effect in Tb oxides, and nonreciprocal thermal current in a multiferroic.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究によりフォノン角運動量という概念が新奇フォノン物性の理解に極めて重要であることを示した。また、本研究を基軸として例えばトポロジカルなフォノン状態など、いくつもの新奇物性を開拓する道筋が示された。これらの成果によって将来的には新機能を備えた音波や熱デバイスの実現へと繋がると期待される。
