摘要
In this work, we investigate the localization of a five-dimensional (5D) free massless Elko spinor field on de Sitter thick branes that are generated by a canonical or phantom scalar field. It is shown that the zero mode of Elko field cannot be localized on the de Sitter brane. In order to circumvent this problem, we employ a nonminimal coupling term in the 5D Elko spinor field action and find that the Elko field can be localized on the de Sitter brane with this mechanism.
