| contents | It has been recently established that a nonlinear valley current could be generated through traveling a surface acoustic wave (SAW) in two-dimensional Dirac materials. So far, the SAW-driven valley currents have been attributed to warping Fermi surface or Berry phase effect. Here, we demonstrate that tilt mechanism can also lead to a nonlinear valley Hall current (VHC) when propagating SAW in materials with the tilted Dirac cone placed on a piezoelectric substrate. It's found that the nonlinear VHC exhibits a $\sinθ$ dependence on the orientation of tilt with respect to SAW. In addition, this tilt-induced nonlinear acoustic VHC shows independence on the relaxation time, distinguishing from the contributions from the Berry phase or trigonal warping. Remarkably, the magnitude of the nonlinear acoustic VHC from tilt mechanism in the uniaxially strained graphene is two orders larger than those reported in MoS$_2$ stemmed from the Berry phase effect and the warping effect. |
