Cooperative effect of doping and temperature on the polaronic band structure in strongly correlated electron systems with strong electron-phonon interaction

Abstract

In this work we investigate doping and temperature dependences of electronic structure of system with strong electronic correlations and strong electron-phonon interaction modeling cuprates in the frameworks of the three-band p-d-Holstein model by a polaronic version of the generalized tight binding (GTB) method. Within this approach the electronic structure is formed by polaronic quasiparticles constructed as excitations between initial and final polaronic multielectron states. Doping and temperature effects are taken into account by occupation numbers of local excited polaronic states and variations in the magnitude of spin-spin correlation functions. Both effects are manifested in the reconstruction of band structure, Fermi contours, density of states and redistribution of the spectral weight over the Hubbard polaron subbands. Doping leads to transformation of Fermi contour from small hole pockets around k=(pi/2,pi/2) with inhomogeneous spectral weight distribution at small hole concentration to large contour around k=(pi,pi) in the overdoped compound as a result of two quantum phase transitions. In the system with phonon subsystem and EPI doping results in the top of the valence band splitting off and new polaron subbands appearance. Temperature increasing in the system with doped holes and moderate EPI leads to formation of the flatband around k=(pi,pi) and transfer of the spectral weight to the splitted off top of the valence band.

These effects are in a qualitative agreement to the temperature dependence of the ARPES spectra observed in the undoped HTSC cuprates.

Polaronic approach to strongly correlated electron systems with strong electron-phonon interaction

I. A. Makarov, Elena I. Shneyder, P. A. Kozlov +1 more

The three-band $p\text{\ensuremath{-}}d$ model of strongly correlated electrons interacting with optical phonons via diagonal and off-diagonal electron-phonon interactions is considered within the cluster perturbation theory. In the beginning, the exact diagonalization of the Hamiltonian of a ${\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$ cluster results in the construction of local polaronic eigenstates $\left|p\right\ensuremath{\rangle}$ with hole numbers ${n}_{h}=0,1,2$ per unit cell. The intercluster hoppings and interactions are exactly written in terms of Hubbard operators ${X}_{f}^{pq}=\left|p\right\ensuremath{\rangle}\ensuremath{\langle}q|$ determined via the multielectron polaronic eigenstates $\left|p\right\ensuremath{\rangle}$ at site $\mathbf{f}$. The Fermi-type single-electron quasiparticle dispersion and spectral weight are calculated for the undoped antiferromagnetic parent insulator like ${\mathrm{La}}_{2}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$. The quasiparticle dispersion of Hubbard polarons is determined by a hybridization of the Hubbard fermion subbands with local Franck-Condon resonances so the main polaronic effect of the quasiparticle band structure is a splitting of the Hubbard bands on the number of Hubbard polaron subbands. Increasing of the EPI constant results in an increase of splitting, decrease of the subband width, transfer of the spectral weight to high-energy multiphonon excitations, and subsequent localization of the charge carriers. Herewith, the effect of such renormalization for the conduction band and the valence one differs depending on the ratio of the diagonal and off-diagonal EPI. In the framework of the GTB method, the Franck-Condon broadening of the spectral function of polaronic excitations is also reproduced for strongly correlated systems with strong electron-phonon interaction.

Evolution of the pseudogap band structure in a system of electron-correlated lattice polarons

Elena I. Shneyder, M. V. Zotova, A. V. Dudarev +2 more

The evolution of the role of lattice vibrations in the formation of the pseudogap state in strongly correlated electron systems has been investigated concerning changes in the electron-phonon coupling parameters and the concentration of doped charge carriers. We apply the polaronic version of the generalized tight-binding method to analyze the band structure of a realistic multiband two-dimensional model that incorporates the electron-lattice contributions of both Holstein and Peierls types. It has been demonstrated that the emergence of polaronic effects begins with the modulation of spectral function intensity. However, within a specific region of the phase diagram, a significant transformation of the electron band structure and pseudogap state occurs. It results from coherent polaron excitations that create a partially flat band near the Fermi level. This process leads to a change in the topology of the Fermi surface and the emergence of corresponding features in the density of states.

Polaronic Quasiparticles in a Strongly Correlated Electron Band

Winfried Koller, Alex C. Hewson, David M. Edwards

We show that a strongly renormalized band of polaronic quasiparticle excitations is induced at the Fermi level of an interacting many-electron system on increasing the coupling of the electrons to local phonons. We give results for the local density of states at zero temperature both for the electrons and phonons. The polaronic quasiparticles satisfy Luttinger's theorem for all regimes considered, and their dispersion shows a kink similar to that observed experimentally in copper oxides. Our calculations are based on the dynamical mean field theory and the numerical renormalization group for the hole-doped Holstein-Hubbard model and large on-site repulsion.

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.
