Topological phase transitions in a honeycomb ferromagnet with unequal Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions (2306.02505v2)

Abstract: This theoretical research is devoted to study topological phase transitions in a two-dimensional honeycomb ferromagnetic lattice with unequal Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions for the two sublattices. With the help of a first-order Green function formalism, we analyze the influence of magnon-magnon interaction on the magnon band topology. It is found that the existence of the antichiral Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction can led to a tilting of the renormalized magnon bands near the Dirac momenta. Then, the renormalized magnon band gaps at Dirac points have different widths. Through changing the temperature, we can observe the renormalized magnon band gap closing-reopening phenomenon, which corresponds to the topological phase transition. Our results show that the critical temperature of the topological phase transition is related to the strength of the antichiral Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction.
