High-Frequency Analysis of Effective Interactions and Bandwidth for Transient States after Monocycle Pulse Excitation of Extended Hubbard Model

Abstract

Using a high-frequency expansion in periodically driven extended Hubbard models, where the strengths and ranges of density-density interactions are arbitrary, we obtain the effective interactions and bandwidth, which depend sensitively on the polarization of the driving field. Then, we numerically calculate modulations of correlation functions in a quarter-filled extended Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor interactions on a triangular lattice with trimers after monocycle pulse excitation. We discuss how the resultant modulations are compatible with the effective interactions and bandwidth derived above on the basis of their dependence on the polarization of photoexcitation, which is easily accessible by experiments. Some correlation functions after monocycle pulse excitation are consistent with the effective interactions, which are weaker or stronger than the original ones. However, the photoinduced enhancement of anisotropic charge correlations previously discussed for the three-quarter-filled organic conductor $α$-(bis[ethylenedithio]-tetrathiafulvalene)$_2$I$_3$ [$α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$] in the metallic phase is not fully explained by the effective interactions or bandwidth, which are derived independently of the filling.

Photoinduced Enhancement of Anisotropic Charge Correlations on Triangular Lattices with Trimers

Kenji Yonemitsu

To explore nontrivial photoinduced modulations of charge correlations, we theoretically study photoinduced dynamics in quarter-filled extended Hubbard models with competing intersite repulsive interactions on triangular lattices with trimers, where the end points are crystallographically equivalent. The exact diagonalization method is used and the time-dependent Schrödinger equation is numerically solved during and after photoexcitation. Time-averaged double occupancy and intersite density-density correlations can be interpreted as due to effective on-site and intersite repulsive interactions, respectively, relative to transfer energies. In the case where the intersite repulsive interactions compete with each other, the anisotropy of their effective interactions can be enhanced with the help of the trimers, irrespective of whether the trimers are linear or bent. In particular, in the case where the arrangement of the trimers is close to that in $α$-(bis[ethylenedithio]-tetrathiafulvalene)$_2$I$_3$ [$α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$] in the metallic phase, the effective on-site repulsion is enhanced relative to the transfer energies. The relevance of this theoretical finding to the experimentally observed optical freezing of charge motion is discussed.

Photoexcitation of the one-dimensional extended Peierls–Hubbard model at quarter-filling

Yupeng Li, Yu-Chang 羽畅 Liu 刘, Yu-Zhuo 玉卓 Zhao 赵 +2 more

Abstract Utilizing the time-dependent Lanczos method, we investigate the photoexcitation dynamics of the one-dimensional (1D) extended Peierls–Hubbard model at quarter filling. In equilibrium, it is well established that introducing the nearest-neighbour interaction V into the 1D Peierls–Hubbard model can lead to the formation of Mott–Hubbard excitons, which exhibit a characteristic frequency in the optical conductivity that is lower than the Mott gap. Ultrafast photoexcitation of this model gives rise to a transient metallic state for V < 2, characterized by several features, including a zero-frequency Drude peak in the post-pump optical conductivity, an increase in the density of charge carriers, and enhanced electron hopping between dimers. In contrast, when V ≥ 2, this metallic state is no longer observed, as photoinduced carriers bind to form excitons, thereby inhibiting metallic behavior. These results highlight a parallel between the optical excitation of the 1D extended Peierls–Hubbard model at quarter filling and that of the 1D extended Hubbard model at half filling, suggesting a universal mechanism governing their photoinduced responses.

Phase Separation Induced by Symmetric Monocycle Optical Pulse in Extended Hubbard Models

Hiroki Yanagiya, Yasuhiro Tanaka, Kenji Yonemitsu

Many-electron dynamics induced by a symmetric monocycle electric-field pulse of large amplitude is theoretically investigated in one- and two-dimensional half-filled extended Hubbard models on regular lattices (i.e., without dimerization) using the exact diagonalization method for small systems and the Hartree-Fock approximation for large systems. The formation of a negative-temperature state and the change from repulsive interactions to effective attractive interactions are shown to be realized for a wide region of the field amplitude and the excitation energy. For a nonnegligible intersite repulsive interaction, the numerical results are consistent with the fact that the phase separation between charge-rich and charge-poor regions is caused by the corresponding effective attraction.

Photoinduced High-Frequency Charge Oscillations in Dimerized Systems

Kenji Yonemitsu

Photoinduced charge dynamics in dimerized systems is studied on the basis of the exact diagonalization method and the time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a one-dimensional spinless-fermion model at half filling and a two-dimensional model for $κ$-(bis[ethylenedithio]tetrathiafulvalene)$_2$X [$κ$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$X] at three-quarter filling. After the application of a one-cycle pulse of a specifically polarized electric field, the charge densities at half of the sites of the system oscillate in the same phase and those at the other half oscillate in the opposite phase. For weak fields, the Fourier transform of the time profile of the charge density at any site after photoexcitation has peaks for finite-sized systems that correspond to those of the steady-state optical conductivity spectrum. For strong fields, these peaks are suppressed and a new peak appears on the high-energy side, that is, the charge densities mainly oscillate with a single frequency, although the oscillation is eventually damped. In the two-dimensional case without intersite repulsion and in the one-dimensional case, this frequency corresponds to charge-transfer processes by which all the bonds connecting the two classes of sites are exploited. Thus, this oscillation behaves as an electronic breathing mode. The relevance of the new peak to a recently found reflectivity peak in $κ$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$X after photoexcitation is discussed.

Charge and spin excitation spectra in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

Satoshi Nishimoto, Tomonori Shirakawa, Y. Ohta

We calculate spin and charge excitation spectra of the one-dimensional (1D) quarter-filled Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor $t$ and next-nearest-neighbor ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ hopping integrals using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group technique. We consider a case where $t$ $(>0)$ is much smaller than ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ $(>0)$. First, we examine the accuracy of our method based on comparison between our result and exact noninteracting spectrum. Next, we investigate the spectra with the on-site Coulomb interaction. We find that the spin and charge excitation spectra are essentially the same as those of the 1D quarter-filled Hubbard (and $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$) model for the two 1D chains along the hopping integral ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$. However, the hopping integral $t$ $(<{t}^{\ensuremath{'}})$ plays a crucial role in the short-range correlations and low-energy excitaions; ferromagnetic correlation between electrons on neighboring sites is enhanced and pairing correlation between the electrons is induced. Consequently, a spin-triplet superconducting state may be derived.

Quarter-Filled Extended Hubbard Model at Strong Coupling

W. F. Lee, Hua Lin

We apply a perturbation approach to study the quarter-filled extended Hubbard model at strong coupling limit. An effective Hamiltonian up to sixth order in t/U and t/V (t defines electron hopping, U defines on-site Coulomb interaction, and V defines nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction) for one-dimensional chains was obtained. The spin-spin correlation functions were involved, which can be obtained after comparing to the ground state energy numerically obtained from the phase diagram.
