Abstract: | |||||
In this paper, the chiral Hall effect of strained Weyl semimetals without any external magnetic field is proposed. The electron-phonon coupling emerges in the low-energy fermionic particle through a pseudogauge potential. We show, by using chiral kinetic theory, that the chiral Hall effect emerges as a response of a real time-varying electric field in the presence of the structural distortion and
it leads to a spatial chirality and charges separation in the system. We also show that the coupling of the electrons to acoustic phonons as a gapless excitation leads to emerging an optical absorption peak at ω = ωel where ωel is defined as a characteristic frequency associated to the pseudomagnetic field.
