Abstract

Momentum-dependent excitation spectra of the two-dimensional Hubbard model on a square lattice have been investigated at zero temperature on the basis of the full self-consistent projection operator method in order to clarify nonlocal effects of electron correlations on the spectra. Intersite antiferromagnetic correlations are found to cause shadow bands and enhance the Mott-Hubbard splittings near the half-filling. Furthermore, nonlocal excitations are shown to move the critical doping concentration δ h *, at which the singular quasiparticle peak is located just on the Fermi level, from δ h * = 0.153 (the single-site value) to δ h * = 0.123. The latter suggests the occurrence of an instability such as the stripe at δ h * = 1/8.

Nonlocal Excitation Spectra in Two-Dimensional Doped Hubbard Model

Yoshiro Kakehashi, Peter Fulde

Single-particle excitation spectra of the two-dimensional Hubbard model on the square lattice near half filling and at zero temperature are investigated on the basis of the self-consistent projection operator method. The method guarantees a high accuracy of the spectra with high energy and high momentum resolutions. It takes into account long-range intersite correlations as well as the strong on-site correlations. Effects of nonlocal excitations are clarified by comparing the results with those of the single-site approximation. The calculated spectra verify the quantum Monte-Carlo results for finite temperatures. The spectra at the Fermi level yield a hole-like Fermi surface in the underdoped region and an electron-like Fermi surface in the overdoped region. From a numerical analysis of the momentum dependent effective mass and self-energy, it is concluded that a marginal Fermi-liquid like state persists even at finite doping concentrations in the strongly correlated region because a van Hove singularity is pinned to the Fermi surface. It is also found that a kink structure appears in the quasiparticle energy band in the same region. The kink is shown to be caused by a mixing between the quasiparticle band and an excitation band with strong short-range antiferromagnetic correlations. These results suggest an explanation for some of the unusual properties of the normal state in high-$T_{\rm c}$ cuprates.

Non local theory of excitations applied to the Hubbard model

Y Kakehashi, T Nakamura, P Fulde

We propose a nonlocal theory of single-particle excitations. It is based on an off-diagonal effective medium and the projection operator method for treating the retarded Green function. The theory determines the nonlocal effective medium matrix elements by requiring that they are consistent with those of the self-energy of the Green function. This arrows for a description of long-range intersite correlations with high resolution in momentum space. Numerical study for the half-filled Hubbard model on the simple cubic lattice demonstrates that the theory is applicable to the strong correlation regime as well as the intermediate regime of Coulomb interaction strength. Furthermore the results show that nonlocal excitations cause sub-bands in the strong Coulomb interaction regime due to strong antiferromagnetic correlations, decrease the quasi-particle peak on the Fermi level with increasing Coulomb interaction, and shift the critical Coulomb interaction U C2 for the divergence of effective mass towards higher energies at least by a factor of two as compared with that in the single-site approximation.

Full Self-Consistent Projection Operator Approach to Nonlocal Excitations in Solids

Yoshiro Kakehashi, Tetsuro Nakamura, Peter Fulde

A self-consistent projection operator method for single-particle excitations is developed. It describes the nonlocal correlations on the basis of a projection technique to the retarded Green function and the off-diagonal effective medium. The theory takes into account long-range intersite correlations making use of an incremental cluster expansion in the medium. A generalized self-consistent coherent potential is derived. It yields the momentum-dependent excitation spectra with high resolution. Numerical studies for the Hubbard model on a simple cubic lattice at half filling show that the theory is applicable in a wide range of Coulomb interaction strength. In particular, it is found that the long-range antiferromagnetic correlations in the strong interaction regime cause shadow bands in the low-energy region and sub-peaks of the Mott-Hubbard bands.

The t − t ′− t ″− U Hubbard model and Fermi-level peak

A Sherman

Abstract Using the strong-coupling diagram technique, low-temperature spectral properties of the two-dimensional fermionic Hubbard model are considered for strong and moderate Hubbard repulsions U . The electron hopping to the nearest, second and third neighbors is taken into account with hopping constants t , t ′ = − 0.3 t and t ″ = 0.2 t , respectively. The nonzero values of t ′ and t ″ lead to strong asymmetry in magnetic properties with respect to the hole and electron doping—for U = 8 t strong antiferromagnetic correlations are retained up to the electron concentration n ¯ ≈ 1.25 , while they are destroyed completely at n ¯ ≈ 0.87 . When the temperature is decreased to T ≲ 0.1 t , in a wide range of electron concentrations there appear narrow and intensive peaks at the Fermi level (FL) in densities of states. For U ≲ 6 t the peaks are seen even at half-filling, while for larger U they arise as the FL leaves the Mott gap. The peaks are connected with a narrow band emerging at low temperatures. We identify states forming the band with spin-polaron excitations—bound states of correlated electrons and mobile spin excitations. Obtained low-temperature spectral functions are used for interpreting the peak-dip-hump structure observed in the photoemission of Nd 2− x Ce x CuO 4 . In the case of hole doping, the calculated Fermi contour contains arcs near nodal points with pseudogaps near antinodal points, while for electron doping the spectral intensity is suppressed at hot spots, in agreement with experimental observations in cuprate perovskites.
