Mochizuki Group

We are theoretically exploring physical phenomena and device functions of materials such as magnets, electrics, superconductors, metals and insulators. Our starting points are microscopic models, which describe kinetics and interactions of electrons in materials based on quantum mechanics. The electrons have charge, spin, and orbital degrees of freedom, which mutually couple and correlate. Taking account of the interplays between these degrees of freedom, we construct mathematical models for the materials and analyze thus constructed models using quantum mechanics, statistical mechanics, quantum field theory, and numerical techniques. In this way, we reveal rich physics behind spectacular phenomena of materials and predict novel physical properties and materials functions. Properties of individual electrons are understood well, which faithfully obey quantum mechanical laws. However, once many electrons gather, the situation is no longer the same as the case of a single electron, because of keen competition and cooperation among them. Assembly of vast amounts of electrons show drastic and rich physical phenomena, e.g., magnetism, phase transitions, superconductivities, colossal magnetoresistance. We attack these inconceivable and spectacular phenomena with pencils, papers, computers, and enthusiasms.

The following paper was published in Physical Review Letters. In this work, we theoretical discovered and clarified collective excitation modes in quadruple-Q magnetic hedgehog lattices in three-dimensional Kondo lattice magnets. Two of the three oscillation modes in the subterahertz regime correspond to translational oscillations of two types of Dirac strings in the unit cell, which are vortex-like magnetization structures connecting magnetic hedgehog and antimagnetic hedgehog, and the modes disappear when the Dirac strings disappear due to hedgehog-antihedgehog pari annihilations under a magnetic field. These important finds will serve as a foundation for fundamental and applied research on the dynamical behaviors of magnetic (anti)hedgehogs that behave as emergent (anti)monopoles in magnetic materials.

Using micromagnetic simulations, we discovered a phenomenon that microwave excitation induces global rotation of the inner skyrmions and elucidated its physical mechanism.

The following paper was published in Nano Letters. In this work, we discovered that when magnetic skyrmions are confined in an obstacle pattern called chiral flower, they exhibit one of the typical active-matter behaviors called chiral swimmer due to the Brownian motion with broken rightward and leftward symmetry in numerical simulations and uncovered a physical mechanism behind it. The discovery of active matter behavior, which is conventionally exhibited only by materialsof biological origin, in skyrmions is expected to lead to new development of the research for active matters.

The following paper was published in Physical Review B. In this paper, we propose versatile and powerful machine learning methods for detecting the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition and the second-order transition in the XXZ model and demonstrate their efficiencies. The XXZ model has three-dimensional spin vectors, which makes it much more difficult to detect phase transitions than the XY and clock models with two-dimensional spin vectors. The proposed methods, called ``temperature identification method" and ``phase classification method", can detect phase transitions in the XXZ model with minimal prior knowledge of the model and prior processing of the data.

In this paper, we studied the electromagnon excitations in a multiferroic material CuO in collaboration with an experimental group in France. This material exhibits a multiferroic phase near the room temperature. We constructed its microscopic spin model that can quantitatively reproduce the observed multi-step magnetoelectric phase transitions. Using this model, we succeeded in fully reproducing the experimental far-infrared spectra of electromagnon excitations in the multiferroic phase at finite temperatures.

We found that a nonequilibrium phase transition from the Floquet Chern-insulator phase to the Floquet normal-insulator phase takes place accompanied by collapse and vanishing of the Dirac points with the same topological magnetic charges when the angle that the elliptical polarization axis makes with the crystallographic axis is 45$^\circ$.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review Applied. In this paper, we theoretically demonstrated that spin-waves propagating in a magnetic skyrmion crystal confined in thin-plate magnets have high potential for application to reservoir-computing devices. We numerically examined several characteristics required for reservoir computings for the skyrmion spin-wave reservoir, i.e., the generalization ability, the short-term memory, and the nonlinearlity by imposing the duration estimate task, the short-term memory task, and the parity check task, respectively, and revealed that the skyrmion spin-wave reservoirs possess high figures of merits for these characteristics. This paper was selected as an Editors' Suggestion.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review Letters. In this paper, we theoretically studied the photoinduced phase transitions in a typical strongly correlated Dirac electron system α-(BEDT-TTF)2I3 irradiated with circularly polarized light. By analyzing an extended Hubbard model with on-site and inter-site Coulomb repulsive interactions using a newly developed theoretical framework which combines real-time dynamics simulations and the Foquet theory, we revealed successive photoinduced phase transitions from the ground-state charge-ordered insulator via the Dirac semimetal to the Chern insulator and its microscopic mechanisms associated with dynamical variations of electronic structures.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review Letters. In this paper, we numerically studied low-energy excitations of magnetic skyrmion crystals in the Kondo-lattice model on a triangular lattice with spatial inversion symmetry and discovered two Goldstone modes associated with charge and spin degrees of freedom and their perfect segregation. Our finding indicates that the charges and spins can be excited separately and selectively in the skyrmion crystals stabilized by interactions mediated by conduction electrons in centrosymmetric magnets.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review B. In this paper, we theoretically predict a possible photoinduced magnetic phase transition from the ferromagnetism to the 120-degree spin order in the Kondo-lattice model on a triangular lattice. A pseudo half-filled electronic structure turns out to stabilize the 120-degree order, which is realized via electron excitations, dynamical localizations, gap opening, relaxations, and reconstruction of the electronic structure under irradiation with light. This work demonstrates that the light irradiation can induce a noncollinear magnetic state as a nonequilibrium steady phase via the general mechanism.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review B. In this paper, we theoretically predict and reveal possible magnetic-topology switching among skyrmion crystals with different topological numbers and nontopological magnesitms by irradiating centrosymmetric Kondo-lattice magnets on a triangular lattice with circularly polarized microwave magnetic fields. In transient processes of these microwave-induced topology switchings, we observe several distinct behaviors of dynamical phase transitions as well as emergence of peculiar topological magnetisms called meron crystals charcterized by skyrmion numbers of half integers.

In contrast to normal materials, crystal volumes of these kinds of magnets are expected to expand upon cooling, which is triggered by the antiferromagnetic phase transition.

The following paper has been published in Physical Review B. In this paper, we theoretically reveal that irradiation by linearly polarized light can induce a pair annihilation of emergent topological magnetic charges with opposite signs in the momentum space of an organic salt α-(BEDT-TTF)2I3, in which a pair of tilted Dirac-cone bands are slightly gapped due to weak charge dispropotionation. This is a theoretical prediction of monopole-antimonopole pair annihilation of 2D version can be realized by photoirradiation in the momentum space of crystalline materials.

It is revealed that spatiotemporal dynamics characterized of different three time scales appear, which are, respectively, governed by the light frequency, the averaged magnitude of gaps at the Dirac points, and the difference of gap amplitudes between the two Dirac points under application of an electric field.
