Semiclassical Theory of Magnetic Energy Levels and Magnetic Susceptibility of Bloch Electrons

Roth, Laura M.·1966·Physical Review

Abstract

In this paper the semiclassical condition for the quantization of magnetic energy levels of Bloch electrons is extended to one order higher in the magnetic field. The result enables us to make a calculation of the magnetic susceptibility of Bloch electrons which includes both the de Haas-van Alphen effect and the steady susceptibility. While the basic calculation is made for fairly simple closed orbits, the results have been extended to include spin splitting, self-intersecting orbits, and open orbits, but omitting consideration of banding of magnetic levels and magnetic breakdown. Possible new oscillations due to self-intersecting orbits are discussed.

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • β can be shown to be equivalent to the Berry's phase experienced by an electron as it travels around a closed loop in momentum space.

    “Mikitik and Sharlai, 1999 showed that the expressions of Roth, 1966 could be recast in a form such that β can be shown to be equivalent to the Berry's phase experienced by an electron as it travels around a closed loop in momentum space (Mikitik and Sharlai, 1999).”

  • For arbitrary dispersions other values of β can occur, which can be calculated with knowledge of the Bloch functions.

    “However, it was shown by Roth, 1966 that for arbitrary dispersions other values can occur, which can be calculated with knowledge of the Bloch functions.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
