Abstract

Using determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulations, we systematically study the doping dependence of the crossover from one to two dimensions and its impact on the magnetic properties of the Hubbard model. A square lattice of chains is used, in which the dimensionality can be tuned by varying the interchain coupling ${t}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$. The dynamical spin structure factor and static quantities, such as the static spin susceptibility and nearest-neighbor spin correlation function, are characterized in the one- and two-dimensional limits as a benchmark. When the dimensionality is tuned between these limits, the magnetic properties, while evolving smoothly from one to two dimensions, drastically change regardless of the doping level. This suggests that the spin excitations in the two-dimensional Hubbard model, even in the heavily doped case, cannot be explained using the spinon picture known from one dimension. The DQMC calculations are complemented by cluster perturbation theory studies to form a more complete picture of how the crossover occurs as a function of doping and how doped holes impact magnetic order.

Numerical investigation of spin excitations in a doped spin chain

We study the doping evolution of spin excitations in a one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard model and its downfolded spin Hamiltonians, by using exact diagonalization combined with cluster perturbation theory. In all models we observe hardening (softening) of spin excitations upon electron (hole) doping, which are reminiscent of recent experiments on two-dimensional (2D) cuprate materials. We also find that the three-site and even higher-order terms are crucial for the low-energy effective spin models to reproduce the magnetic spectra of doped Hubbard systems at a quantitative level. To interpret the numerical results, we further employ a strong coupling slave-boson mean-field theory. The mean-field theory provides an intuitive understanding of the overall compact support of dynamic spin structure factors, including the shift of zero-energy modes and change of spin excitation bandwidth with doping. Our results can serve as predictive benchmarks for future inelastic x-ray or neutron scattering experiments on doped 1D antiferromagnetic Mott insulators.

Doping evolution of spin and charge excitations in the Hubbard model

Y. F. Kung, Elizabeth Nowadnick, Chunjing Jia +4 more

To shed light on how electronic correlations vary across the phase diagram of the cuprate superconductors, we examine the doping evolution of spin and charge excitations in the single-band Hubbard model using determinant quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC). In the single-particle response, we observe that the effects of correlations weaken rapidly with doping, such that one may expect the random phase approximation (RPA) to provide an adequate description of the two-particle response. In contrast, when compared to RPA, we find that significant residual correlations in the two-particle excitations persist up to 40% hole and 15% electron doping (the range of dopings achieved in the cuprates). These fundamental differences between the doping evolution of single- and multiparticle renormalizations show that conclusions drawn from single-particle processes cannot necessarily be applied to multiparticle excitations. Eventually, the system smoothly transitions via a momentum-dependent crossover into a weakly correlated metallic state where the spin and charge excitation spectra exhibit similar behavior and where RPA provides an adequate description.

Spinon confinement: Dynamics of weakly coupled Hubbard chains

Marcin Raczkowski, Fakher F. Assaad

Using large-scale determinant quantum Monte Carlo simulations in combination with the stochastic analytical continuation, we study two-particle dynamical correlation functions in the anisotropic square lattice of weakly coupled one-dimensional (1D) Hubbard chains at half filling and in the presence of weak frustration. The evolution of the static spin structure factor upon increasing the interchain coupling is suggestive of the transition from the power-law decay of spin-spin correlations in the 1D limit to long-range antiferromagnetic order in the quasi-1D regime and at $T=0$. In the numerically accessible regime of interchain couplings, the charge sector remains gapped. The low-energy momentum dependence of the spin excitations is well described by the linear spin-wave theory with the largest intensity located around the antiferromagnetic wave vector. This magnon mode corresponds to a bound state of two spinons. At higher energies the spinons deconfine and we observe signatures of the two-spinon continuum which progressively fade away as a function of interchain hopping.

Systematic analysis of a spin-susceptibility representation of the pairing interaction in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Thomas Maier, Alexandru Macridin, Mark Jarrell +1 more

A dynamic cluster quantum Monte Carlo algorithm is used to study a spin-susceptibility representation of the pairing interaction for the two-dimensional Hubbard model with an on-site Coulomb interaction equal to the bandwidth for various doping levels. We find that the pairing interaction is well approximated by $\frac{3}{2}\overline{U}{(T)}^{2}\ensuremath{\chi}(K\ensuremath{-}{K}^{\ensuremath{'}})$, with an effective temperature and doping dependent coupling $\overline{U}(T)$ and the numerically calculated spin susceptibility $\ensuremath{\chi}(K\ensuremath{-}{K}^{\ensuremath{'}})$. We show that at low temperatures, $\overline{U}$ may be accurately determined from a corresponding spin-susceptibility based calculation of the single-particle self-energy. We conclude that the strength of the $d$-wave pairing interaction, characterized by the mean-field transition temperature, can be determined from a knowledge of the dressed spin susceptibility and the nodal quasiparticle spectral weight. This has important implications with respect to the questions of whether spin fluctuations are responsible for pairing in the high-${T}_{c}$ cuprates.

Magnetic susceptibility and simulated neutron signal in the two-dimensional Hubbard model

J. P. F. LeBlanc, Shaozhi Li, Xi Chen +4 more

We compute dynamic spin susceptibilities in the two-dimensional Hubbard model using the method of dual fermions, and we provide a comparison to lattice Monte Carlo and cluster dynamical mean-field theory. We examine the energy dispersion identified by peaks in $\mathrm{Im}\ensuremath{\chi}(\ensuremath{\omega},q)$, which define spin modes, and we compare the exchange scale and magnon dispersion to neutron experiments on the parent ${\mathrm{La}}_{2}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$ cuprate. We present the evolution of the spin excitations as a function of Hubbard interaction strengths and doping, and we explore the particle-hole asymmetry of the spin excitations. We also study the correlation lengths and the spin excitation dispersion peak structure, and we find a Y-shaped dispersion similar to neutron results on doped ${\mathrm{HgBa}}_{2}{\mathrm{CuO}}_{4+\ensuremath{\delta}}$.

Magnetic susceptibility of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

Adriana Moreo

Using quantum Monte Carlo techniques we study the magnetic susceptibility of the Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice for values of the coupling U/t ranging from 4 to 20, and as a function of temperature and doping. For U/t=4 the magnetic susceptibility has a maximum at half filling and decreases with doping, in qualitative agreement with recent random-phase-approximation calculations. However, for U/t=10 the susceptibility increases with hole doping near half filling resembling the experimental results obtained for ${\mathrm{La}}_{2\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{Sr}}_{\mathit{x}}$${\mathrm{CuO}}_{4}$. At low electronic density the temperature dependence of the susceptibility is compatible with that of a Fermi liquid.
