Abstract

We investigate the Hall effect in two different theoretical models of strongly correlated systems: a system made of weakly coupled Luttinger liquids, in the presence of umklapp scattering, and the 2D triangular lattice, with nearest-neighbor hopping and a local Hubbard interaction. In the first model we use a memory function approach to compute the Hall coefficient as a function of temperature and frequency in the presence of umklapp scattering. We find a power-law correction to the free-fermion value (band value), with an exponent depending on the Luttinger parameter $K_ρ$. At sufficiently high temperature or frequency the Hall coefficient approaches the band value. We discuss the applications to Hall experiments made in quasi 1D organic compounds. In the second model, the complete temperature and doping dependencies of the high-frequency Hall coefficient $\RH$ are evaluated analytically and numerically for small, intermediate, and strong interactions using various approximation schemes. We find that $\RH$ follows the semiclassical $1/qn^*$ law near T=0, but exhibits a striking $T$-linear behavior with an interaction- and doping-dependent slope at high temperature. We compare our results with Hall measurements performed in cobaltates.

Hall map and breakdown of Fermi liquid theory in the vicinity of a Mott insulator

Ilia Khait, Sauri Bhattacharyya, Abhisek Samanta +1 more

The Hall coefficient exhibits anomalous behavior in lightly doped Mott insulators. For strongly interacting electrons its computation has been challenged by analytical and numerical obstacles. We calculate the leading contributions in the recently derived thermodynamic formula for the Hall coefficient. We obtain its doping and temperature dependence for the square lattice tJ-model at high temperatures. The second order corrections are evaluated to be negligible. Quantum Monte Carlo sampling extends our results to lower temperatures. We find a divergence of the Hall coefficient toward the Mott limit and a sign reversal relative to Boltzmann equation's weak scattering prediction. The Hall current near the Mott phase is carried by a low density of spin-entangled vacancies, which should constitute the Cooper pairs in any superconducting phase at lower temperatures.

Umklapp process and resistivity in one-dimensional fermion systems

Thierry Giamarchi

The influence of umklapp scattering on the resistivity of an interacting-one-dimensional-fermion system (Luttinger liquid) is studied. By using a renormalization-group calculation and a memory-function approximation for the conductivity, it is possible to obtain its frequency and temperature dependence at arbitrary filling. At high temperature the conductivity behaves as a power law of the temperature with an exponent depending on the interactions. Away from half filling there is a crossover between this behavior and an exponential increase of the conductivity. At half filling, the low-temperature conductivity behaves as ${\mathit{e}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Delta}}/\mathit{T}}$, where \ensuremath{\Delta} is the gap in the charge spectrum. It is argued that to get such behavior other scattering processes or phase-breaking processes are needed since in the presence of only electron-electron scattering the conductivity should, strictly speaking, be infinite at every finite temperature, even at half filling. Finally some results on the exponents of correlation functions and on the weight of the Drude peak obtained previously for the Hubbard model are shown to be generic features of any Luttinger liquid.

Antiferromagnets and Luttinger Liquids: Two Strongly Correlated Systems

Ann Elisabet Mattsson

Strongly correlated systems show a variety of intriguing properties and have been extensively studied over the years. In this thesis two strongly correlated systems are discussed: the two-dimensional antiferromagnet and the Luttinger liquid. The Luttinger liquid has attracted much interest as a paradigm of non-Fermi liquid behavior. In the first part of the thesis, basic properties of Fermi liquids are briefly described while those of Luttinger liquids are considered in more detail. The differences in spectral properties of Luttinger liquids and Fermi liquids are discussed, as are the consequences for photoemission experiments. In this context Luttinger liquids with boundaries, treated in Papers I, II, and III, are introduced. The exact single-electron Green's function at finite temperature is calculated with bosonization methods, for both periodic and finite open-boundary systems. The corresponding local spectral density is analyzed. For a system with open boundaries, the well-known zero temperature bulk behavior always crosses over to a boundary dominated regime for small energies, while at finite temperature the low energy behavior becomes quadratic. For a periodic finite-size system we also calculate the Coulomb-blockade-like oscillations and study their dependence on interaction and temperature. The two-dimensional antiferromagnet has attracted much attention due to its connection to the undoped phase of the ceramic high-temperature superconductors. In the second part of the thesis including Papers IV and V, the two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet defined on the triangular and the honeycomb lattices is studied. We use the Schwinger-boson mean-field theory to investigate the stability of the ground state with respect to frustration. For the honeycomb lattice model we find an increased Néel stability as compared to the classical case. The dynamic structure factor is considered for various temperatures and the spin-wave velocity and the susceptibility are presented as functions of frustration for spin S=1/2. In the case of the intrinsically frustrated triangular lattice model we obtain, in the limit of infinite spin, results in complete agreement with the linear spin-wave theory. In contrast to the latter, however, two of the three modes acquire a mass for finite spin. The origin of this effect is discussed.

Hall Coefficient in the doped Mott Insulator

Pinaki Majumdar, H. R. Krishnamurthy

We compute the (zero frequency) Hall coefficient $R_H$, and the high frequency Hall constant $R_H^*$ for the strong coupling Hubbard model away from half-filling, in the $d=\infty$/ local approximation, using the new iterated perturbation scheme proposed by Kajueter and Kotliar. We find quantitative agreement of our $R_H^*$ with the QMC results obtained in two dimensions by Assaad and Imada [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 74}, 3868 (1995)]. However while the {\it sign} of $R_H$ is quite accurately reproduced by $R_H^*$ the doping dependence of its magnitude at large U is not. We report results for the complete temperature $(T)$, doping $(x)$ and $U$ dependence of $R_H$ and $R_H^*$ and discuss their possible relevance to doped cuprates.

QUANTUM HALL EDGE PHYSICS AND ITS ONE-DIMENSIONAL LUTTINGER LIQUID DESCRIPTION

Orion Ciftja

We describe the relationship between quantum Hall edge states and the one-dimensional Luttinger liquid model. The Luttinger liquid model originated from studies of one-dimensional Fermi systems, however, it results that many ideas inspired by such a model can find applications to phenomena occurring even in higher dimensions. Quantum Hall systems which essentially are correlated two-dimensional electronic systems in a strong perpendicular magnetic field have an edge. It turns out that the quantum Hall edge states can be described by a one-dimensional Luttinger model. In this work, we give a general background of the quantum Hall and Luttinger liquid physics and then point out the relationship between the quantum Hall edge states and its one-dimensional Luttinger liquid representation. Such a description is very useful given that the Luttinger liquid model has the property that it can be bosonized and solved. The fact that we can introduce a simpler model of noninteracting bosons, even if the quantum Hall edge states of electrons are interacting, allows one to calculate exactly various quantities of interest. One such quantity is the correlation function which, in the asymptotic limit, is predicted to have a power law form. The Luttinger liquid model also suggests that such a power law exponent should have a universal value. A large number of experiments have found the quantum Hall edge states to show behavior consistent with a Luttinger liquid description. However, while a power law dependence of the correlation function has been observed, the experimental values of the exponent appear not to be universal. This discrepancy might be due to various correlation effects between electrons that sometimes are not easy to incorporate within a standard Luttinger liquid model.

Explicit mapping between a two-dimensional quantum Hall system and a one-dimensional Luttinger liquid. II. Correlation functions

Mats Horsdal, Jon Magne Leinaas

We study a model of a quantum Hall system with the electrons confined to a narrow, linear channel. The system is mapped to a one-dimensional (1D) system which in the low-energy approximation has the form of a Luttinger liquid with different interactions between particles of equal and of opposite chiralities. In a previous paper (Part I) [M. Horsdal and J. M. Leinaas, Phys. Rev. B 76, 195321 (2007)], we studied this mapping at the microscopic level, and examined how the interaction in the two-dimensional (2D) system renormalizes 1D Luttinger liquid parameters. We follow up this study here and derive the low-energy form of the 2D electron correlation function by applying the mapping from the 1D correlation function. The derived expression has a natural separation in a bulk part, which is not modified by interactions, and an edge part, which is modified. We study the effect of interactions on the electron density and on the asymptotic form of the correlation function. The asymptotic parameter is found to be consistent with the expected value from the Luttinger liquid theory, but deviations from the asymptotic form are found in a rather wide intermediate interval. We suggest some questions of interest for further study.
