Abstract

We explore the two-dimensional extended Hubbard model on the triangular lattice in the high doping regime. On-site and nearest-neighbour repulsive interactions are treated in a non-perturbative way by means of Extended Dynamical Mean Field Theory. We compute the low-temperature phase diagram, displaying a metallic phase and a symmetry-broken phase for strong intersite repulsions. We describe the correlation effects on both single-particle and two-particle observables in the metallic phase. Whereas single-particle spectra feature a Hubbard satellite typical of strongly correlated systems, local susceptibilities remain close to their non-interacting limit, even for large on-site repulsions. We argue that this behaviour is typical of the strongly doped case. We also report a region in parameter space with negative static local screening.

Two-dimensional extended Hubbard model: doping, next-nearest neighbor hopping and phase diagrams

A. Sherman

Abstract Using the strong coupling diagram technique, we investigate the extended Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice. This approach allows for charge and spin fluctuations and a short-range antiferromagnetic order at nonzero temperatures. The model features the first-order phase transition to states with alternating site occupations (SAO) at the intersite repulsion v = v c . In this work, we show that doping decreases v c . For a nonzero next-nearest neighbor hopping t ′ , less mobile carriers produce a stronger fall in v c . For half-filling and t ′ = 0 , we consider phase diagrams for a fixed temperature T, on-site U, and intersite repulsions. The diagrams contain regions of SAO, Mott insulator, and several metallic states distinguished by their densities of states. Two of them are characterized by a dip and a peak at the Fermi level. The dip originates from the Slater mechanism for itinerant electrons, while the peak to bound states of electrons with localized magnetic moments. The existence of these two metallic regions in the phase diagram is a manifestation of the Pomeranchuk effect. The boundary between these regions reveals itself as a kink in the curve v c (T) and as a maximum in the T dependence of the double occupancy D. Our calculated D for different values of v, U, and T are in semiquantitative agreement with Monte Carlo results.

Extended dynamical mean-field study of the Hubbard model with long-range interactions

Li Huang, Thomas Ayral, Silke Biermann +1 more

Using extended dynamical mean-field theory and its combination with the $GW$ approximation, we compute the phase diagrams and local spectral functions of the single-band extended Hubbard model on the square and simple cubic lattices, considering long-range interactions up to the third nearest neighbors. The longer-range interactions shift the boundaries between the metallic, charge-ordered insulating, and Mott insulating phases, and lead to characteristic changes in the screening modes and local spectral functions. Momentum-dependent self-energy contributions enhance the correlation effects and thus compete with the additional screening effect from longer-range Coulomb interactions. Our results suggest that the influence of longer-range intersite interactions is significant, and that these effects deserve attention in realistic studies of correlated materials.

Doping-driven metal-insulator transitions and charge orderings in the extended Hubbard model

Konrad Jerzy Kapcia, S. Robaszkiewicz, Massimo Capone +1 more

We perform a thorough study of the extended Hubbard model featuring local and nearest-neighbor Coulomb repulsion. Using the dynamical mean-field theory we investigated the zero-temperature phase diagram of this model as a function of the chemical doping. The interplay between local and nonlocal interactions drives a variety of phase transitions connecting two distinct charge-ordered insulators, i.e., half filled and quarter filled, a charge-ordered metal and a Mott-insulating phase. We characterize these transitions and the relative stability of the solutions and we show that the two interactions conspire to stabilize the quarter-filled charge-ordered phase.

Charge instabilities of the two-dimensional Hubbard model with attractive nearest neighbour interaction

Raymond Frésard, Kevin Steffen, Thilo Kopp

Attractive non-local interactions jointly with repulsive local interaction in a microscopic modelling of electronic Fermi liquids generate a competition between an enhancement of the static charge susceptibility–ultimately signalling charge instability and phase separation–and its correlation induced suppression. We analyse this scenario through the investigation of the extended Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice, using the spin rotation invariant slave-boson representation of Kotliar and Ruckenstein. The quasiparticle density of states, the renormalised effective mass and the Landau parameter F s 0 are presented, whereby the positivity of F s 0 – 1 constitutes a criterion for stability. Van Hove singularities in the density of states support possible charge instabilities. A (negative) next-nearest neighbour hopping parameter t' shifts their positions and produces a tendency towards charge instability even for low filling whereas the t' -controlled particle-hole asymmetry of the correlation driven effective mass is small. A region of instability on account of the attractive interaction V is identified, either at half filling in the absence of strong electronic correlations or, in the case of large on-site interaction U , at densities far from half filling.

Charge ordering and correlation effects in the extended Hubbard model

Hanna Terletska, Tianran Chen, Emanuel Gull

We study the half-filled extended Hubbard model on a two-dimensional square lattice using cluster dynamical mean-field theory on clusters of size 8--20. We show that the model exhibits metallic, Mott-insulating, and charge-ordered phases, and determine the location of the charge-ordering phase-transition line and the properties of the phases as a function of temperature, local interaction, and nearest-neighbor interaction. We find strong nonlocal correlations outside the charge-ordered phase and a pronounced screening effect in the vicinity of the phase transition, where nonlocal interactions push the system towards metallic behavior. In contrast, correlations in the charge-ordered phase are mostly local to the unit cell. Finally, we demonstrate how strong nonlocal electron-electron interactions can increase electron mobility by turning a charge-ordered insulator into a metal. We analyze finite-size effects and the convergence of our data to the thermodynamic limit. Control of all sources of errors allows us to assess the regime of applicability of simpler approximation schemes for systems with nonlocal interactions.

Slave spins away from half filling: Cluster mean-field theory of the Hubbard and extended Hubbard models

Syed R. Hassan, Luca de’ Medici

A slave-spin representation of fermion operators has recently been proposed for the half-filled single and multiband Hubbard model. We show that with the addition of a gauge variable, the formalism can be extended to finite doping. We solve the resulting spin problem using the cluster mean-field approximation. This approximation takes short-range correlations into account by exact diagonalization on the cluster, whereas long-range correlations beyond the size of clusters are treated at the mean-field level. In the limit where the cluster has only one site and the interaction strength $U$ is infinite, this approach reduces to the Gutzwiller approximation. There are some qualitative differences when the size of the cluster is finite. We first compute the critical $U$ for the Mott transition as a function of a frustrating nearest-neighbor interaction on lattices relevant for various correlated systems, namely, the cobaltates, the layered organic superconductors and the high-temperature superconductors. For the triangular lattice, we also study the extended Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor repulsion. In addition to a uniform metallic state, we find a $\sqrt{(3)}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}\sqrt{(3)}$ charge density wave in a broad doping regime, including commensurate ones. We find that in the large $U$ limit, intersite Coulomb repulsion $V$ strongly suppresses the single-particle weight of the metallic state.
