Axionic charged black branes with arbitrary scalar nonminimal coupling

In this paper, we construct four-dimensional charged black branes of a nonminimally coupled and self-interacting scalar field. In addition to the scalar and Maxwell fields, the model involves two axionic fields homogeneously distributed along the two-dimensional planar base manifold providing in turn a simple mechanism of momentum dissipation. Interestingly enough, the horizon of the solution can be set at two different positions, whose locations depend on the axionic parameter, and in both cases there exists a wide range of values of the nonminimal coupling parameter yielding physical acceptable solutions. For one of our solutions, the allowed nonminimal coupling parameters take discrete values and it turns out to be extremal since its has zero temperature. A complete analysis of the thermodynamical features of the solutions is also carried out. Finally, thanks to the mechanism of momentum dissipation, the holographic DC conductivities of the solutions are computed in term of the black hole horizon data, and we analyze the effects of the nonminimal coupling parameter on these conductivities. For example, we notice that for the non extremal solutions, there always exists a nonminimal coupling (which is greater than the conformal one in four dimensions) yielding perfect conductivity in the sense that the conductivity is infinite. Even more astonishing, the conductivity matrix for the extremal solutions has a Hall effect-like behavior.
