We present a systematic microscopic derivation of the semiclassical Boltzmann equation for band structures with the finite Berry curvature based on Keldysh technique of nonequilibrium systems. In the analysis, an ac electrical driving field is kept up to quadratic order, and both cases of small and large frequencies corresponding to intra- and interband transitions are considered. In particular, this formulation is suitable for the study of nonlinear Hall effect and photogalvanic phenomena. The role of impurity scattering is carefully addressed. Specifically, in addition to previously studied side-jump and skew-scattering processes, quantum interference diffractive contributions are now explicitly incorporated within the developed framework. This theory is applied to multifold fermions in topological semimetals, for which the generic formula for the skew scattering rate from the Pancharatnam phase is obtained along with the corresponding anomalous Hall conductivity.

拓扑半金属中异常和非线性霍尔效应的量子动力学

我们基于非平衡系统的Keldysh技术,对具有有限Berry曲率的能带结构的半经典Boltzmann方程进行了系统的微观推导。在分析中,交流电驱动场保持为二次方,并且考虑了对应于频带内和频带间过渡的小频率和大频率两种情况。特别地,该公式适合于研究非线性霍尔效应和光电流现象。杂质散射的作用已得到认真解决。具体而言,除了先前研究的侧跳和偏斜散射过程之外,现在,已将量子干涉衍射贡献明确纳入了已开发的框架。该理论适用于拓扑半金属中的多重费米子,
