March APS Meeting, Baltimore, March 13 2006
Introduction
• By mid-1990s, density-functional perturbation theoryallowed calculation of linear response to E-field
• However, it was not known how to:– Calculate polarization itself– Treat finite E-fields
• Analogous problem of calculating orbital magnetizationalso unsolved
![Page 8: Berry Phases and Curvatures in Electronic-Structure Theoryzhiwu/research/slides/B09_berry1.pdf · March APS Meeting, Baltimore, March 13 2006 Berry Phases and Curvatures in Electronic-Structure](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022041018/5ecce19db68d9d184141e342/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
March APS Meeting, Baltimore, March 13 2006
Introduction
• Solutions of these problems are now in hand– Modern theory of polarization (1993)– Treatment of finite E-fields (2002)– Orbital magnetization (2005)
• Solutions rely heavily on two crucial ingredients:– Wannier functions– Berry phases and related quantities

Theory of orbital magnetization
T. Thonhauser, D. Ceresoli, D. Vanderbilt, and R. Resta,Phys. Rev. Lett. 95, 137205 (2005).
• Context:
– Ferromagnetic insulators– Single-particle approximation
– Vanishing magnetic field• Used Wannier representation to derive a
formula for the orbital magnetization

Summary and Prospects
• Berry phases are everywhere!• We discussed:
– Electric polarization– Electric fields– Anomalous Hall coefficient– Orbital magnetization
• Other “hot topics”:– Multiferroics and magnetoelectric effects– Single graphene sheets– Spin Hall effect and spin injection
• More Berry phases lurking around the corner?

Electric Fields: The Hitch
• There is a hitch!• For given E-field, there is a limit on k-point sampling• Length scale LC = 1/Dk• Meaning: LC = supercell dimension
Nk = 8
Lc = 8a
• Solution: Keep Dk > 1/Lt = e/Eg

Orbital Magnetization
K = M x n
Is M a bulk property?
Is K only apparently asurface property?
Definition:If K is predetermined at all surfaces in such away that K = M x n for some vector M, thenM is the bulk magnetization.

Orbital Magnetization
Clarification:
• Microscopic M(r) defined via — x M(r) = J(r)
• M(r) ill-defined: M(r) fi M(r) + M0 + —h
• Therefore, cannot define M as cell average of M(r)
Just as: P is not, even in principle, a functionalof the bulk charge density distribution r(r)
Conclusion: M is not, even in principle, a functionalof the bulk current distribution J(r)
(Hirst, RMP, 1997)

Strong reasons to expect bulk M
• Nearsightedness:Surface current depends onlyon local environment
• Stationary quantum state:dr/dt = 0
• Conservation of charge:—⋅J = 0
