Abstract

We study the ground state of 1D Holstein single polaron with next nearest neighbour electron hopping (NNN), employing a variational approximation based on exact diagonalization. Our investigation reveals that, depending upon the sign and magnitude of the NNN hopping integral with respect to nearest neighbour hopping, the polaron band minima may occur at non-zero kGS. We compare the present scenario with the SSH polarons, where a similar feature is also observed, albeit, due to very different mechanism. Our initial investigation of triplet bipolarons, in presence of an attractive extended Hubbard interactions, further substantiates the differences between the present model and the SSH model.

Polaron and bipolaron formation in the Hubbard-Holstein model: Role of next-nearest-neighbor electron hopping

G. De Filippis, V. Cataudella, Giuseppe Iadonisi +3 more

The influence of next-nearest-neighbor electron hopping ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ on the polaron and bipolaron formation in a square Hubbard-Holstein model is investigated within a variational approach. The results for electron-phonon and electron-electron correlation functions show that a negative value of ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ induces a strong anisotropy in the lattice distortions favoring the formation of nearest-neighbor intersite bipolaron. The role of ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}},$ electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions is briefly discussed in view of the formation of charged striped domains.

Particularities of polaron formation in the extended Holstein model with next nearest neighbor transfer

Monodeep Chakraborty, Jayita Chatterjee, Holger Fehske

Employing a largely unbiased variational exact diagonalization technique, we analyze the consequences of longer-ranged electron hopping and electron-phonon interaction on polaron formation in one dimension. Having at our disposal the accurate ground-state energy and wave function, we calculate and discuss various physical quantities, such as the renormalized band structure, effective mass, wave-function renormalization factor, phonon dressing, and Drude weight, characterizing the properties of the polaronic quasiparticle. We demonstrate that the electron-phonon coupling affects the relative strength of the nearest neighbor (NN) and next nearest neighbor (NNN) hopping processes in a dynamic way. Most notably we observe that the minimum of the polaron band, occurring at a finite momentum for large negative ratio between NN and NNN transfer, jumps to zero momentum as the electron-phonon coupling exceeds a critical one, thereby causing a rather sharp polaron transition in the one-dimensional extended Holstein model. The signatures of this transition are seen in the effective mass and polaron mobility, and therefore should be easily detectable by transport measurements.

The Effect of Next-Nearest Neighbour Hopping in the One, Two, and Three Dimensional Holstein Model

Carl J. Chandler, Christian G. Prosko, F. Marsiglio

Allowing a single electron to hop to next-nearest neighbours (NNN) in addition to the closest atomic sites in the Holstein model, a modified Trugman method is applied to exactly calculate the effect on the polaronic effective mass in one, two, and three dimensions, building on the previous study of the one-dimensional NNN Holstein model. We also present perturbative calculations and a heuristic scaling factor for the coupling strength and ion frequency to nearly map the NNN Holstein model back onto the original Holstein model. When account is taken of the modified electronic bandwidth near the electron energy, we find that including NNN hopping effectively increases the polaron effective mass.

Single-particle spectral function of the Holstein-Hubbard bipolaron

Martin Hohenadler, Markus Aichhorn, Wolfgang von der Linden

The one-electron spectral function of the Holstein-Hubbard bipolaron in one dimension is studied using cluster perturbation theory together with the Lanczos method. In contrast to other approaches, this allows one to calculate the spectrum at continuous wave vectors and thereby to investigate the dispersion and the spectral weight of quasiparticle features. The formation of polarons and bipolarons, and their manifestation in the spectral properties of the system, is studied for the cases of intermediate and large phonon frequencies, with and without Coulomb repulsion. A good agreement is found with the most accurate calculations of the bipolaron band dispersion available. Pronounced deviations of the bipolaron band structure from a simple tight-binding band are observed, which can be attributed to next-nearest-neighbor hopping processes.

Formation of bipolarons in the Holstein Hubbard model in one, two and three dimensions

Shreekantha Sil

In this paper we have studied the properties of a two-fermion system interacting with the phonon field in the framework of the Holstein Hubbard model in one, two and three dimensions. We have chosen the modified Lang-Firsov variational wave function with on-site and nearest-neighbour lattice distortion for the phonon subsystem to obtain an effective electronic Hamiltonian. This effective electronic Hamiltonian is then solved exactly to obtain the binding energy and effective mass of the bipolaron. We investigated the stability of the bipolaronic phase by comparing the ground-state energy of a bipolaron and two free polarons. We observed a critical repulsive on-site Hubbard interaction U c below which the bipolaronic phases are stable for a fixed electron-phonon coupling g . In the absence of on-site repulsion, bipolaronic phases are stable over the entire range of electron-phonon coupling for one dimension, whereas there is a critical electron-phonon coupling g c for formation of a stable bipolaron in two and three dimensions.
