Abstract

By the example of the Hubbard model we analytically and numerically examine the formating and coexisting of localized electron--electron pairs (doublons) and localized electron--hole pairs (Frenkel--type excitons) . Here we demonstrate that at a variation of the on-site Coulomb repulsion U there occurs a quantum transition from the doublon to the exciton regime that is conditioned by the low-energy effective hybridization of the valence and conductivity subbands. We calculate momentum distribution functions and electronic spectrum functions for different U, which reveal topologically nontrivial behaviour at the Fermi level.

Quantum Phase Transitions in 2D--dimensional paramagnetic half--filled Hubbard model

N. I. Chashchin

We investigate the quantum phase transitions in strongly correlated electronic systems at $T=0^0K$ by the example of the 2D Hubbard model. The model for numerical calculations were formalized in terms of the integral equations previously obtained for the half--filled paramagnetic Hubbard model by means of the variational derivatives technique and subsequent Legendre transformation. For principal results we submit in series the momentum distribution functions $n(k)$ which display distinct attributes for the incipient regimes: the pure doublon phase, the metal phase, Weyl semimetal phase, and Weyl excitonic insulator phase at the sequential increasing the onsite Coulomb interaction $U$.

Optical Spectra and Exciton in Correlated Insulators in Electron–Hole Systems

Yuh Tomio, Tetsuo Ogawa

We study the optical properties of an electron–hole two-band Hubbard model with interactions of electron–electron (hole–hole) repulsion U and electron–hole attraction U '. In the case of two types of correlated insulators at half filling, viz. , the Mott–Hubbard type and the biexciton type, interband linear absorption/gain spectra including excitonic effects are calculated analytically using two-site dynamical mean-field theory and ladder approximation. We show that an exciton-like peak structure emerges because of an “exciton” in the sea of correlated fermions when U ' is larger than a certain critical value. The binding energy of the photoinduced excitonic bound state and the spectral intensity are evaluated as a function of U '. The emergence and absence of the exciton-like peak suggests that there are two different insulating mechanisms in the Mott–Hubbard insulating state of the electron–hole system: one is attributable to only U and the other is attributable to both U and U '; the latter is called the excitonic Mott–Hubbard insulating state. The intrinsic difference of the mechanisms cannot be captured from only single-particle properties such as the density of states, but it appears clearly in optical properties reflecting two-particle correlations.

Ground state of the one-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model

N. I. Chashchin

We investigate the ground state (T = 0 K) of the one-dimensional symmetrical (n = 1) Hubbard model formalized in terms of the system of integral equations, which we previously obtained using the method of the generating functional of Green’s functions with the subsequent Legendre transformation. In a wide range of variations in the parameter of Coulomb interaction U, the following characteristics of the system have been calculated: the electron density of states, the electron band spectrum, the number of doubly occupied lattice sites, the localized magnetic moment, the correlator of the square of the longitudinal component of spin at a site,<S Z 2>, and the internal energy of the system. It has been shown that, for all U > 0, the model yields two solutions, i.e., an antiferromagnetic insulator and a paramagnetic insulator, in which there are no single-electron quasi-particles at the Fermi level. The energy of the paramagnetic solution in the region of U < 1.1 is considerably less than that of the antiferromagnetic solution for the case of U > 1.1, we have the opposite situation.

Excitons in the One-Dimensional Hubbard Model: A Real-Time Study

K. A. Al-Hassanieh, Fernando Agustín Reboredo, Adrian E. Feiguin +2 more

We study the real-time dynamics of a hole and doubly occupied site pair, namely, a holon and a doublon, in a 1D Hubbard insulator with on-site and nearest-neighbor Coulomb repulsion. Our analysis shows that the pair is long-lived and the expected decay mechanism to underlying spin excitations is actually inefficient. For a nonzero intersite Coulomb repulsion, we observe that part of the wave function remains in a bound state. Our study also provides insight on the holon-doublon propagation in real space. Because of the one-dimensional nature of the problem, these particles move in opposite directions even in the absence of an applied electric field. The potential relevance of our results to solar cell applications is discussed.

Anderson-Mott transition in a disordered Hubbard chain with correlated hopping

Francesca Battista, Alberto Camjayi, Liliana Arrachea

We study the ground-state phase diagram of the Anderson-Hubbard model with correlated hopping at half-filling in one dimension. The Hamiltonian has a local Coulomb repulsion $U$ and a disorder potential with local energies randomly distributed in the interval $(\ensuremath{-}W,+W)$ with equal probability, acting on the singly occupied sites. The hopping process which modifies the number of doubly occupied sites is forbidden. The hopping between nearest-neighbor singly occupied and empty sites or between singly occupied and doubly occupied sites has the same amplitude $t$. We identify three different phases as functions of the disorder amplitude $W$ and Coulomb interaction strength $U>0$. When $U<4t$ the system shows a metallic phase: (i) only when no disorder is present $W=0$ or an Anderson-localized phase, (ii) when disorder is introduced $W\ensuremath{\ne}0$. When $U>4t$ the Anderson-localized phase survives as long as disorder effects dominate on the interaction effects, otherwise a Mott-insulator phase (iii) arises. Phases (i) and (ii) are characterized by a finite density of doublons and a vanishing charge gap among the ground state and the excited states. Phase (iii) is characterized by the vanishing density of doublons and a finite gap for the charge excitations.

Electronic dynamic Hubbard model: Exact diagonalization study

J. E. Hirsch

A model to describe electronic correlations in energy bands is considered. The model is a generalization of the conventional Hubbard model that allows for the fact that the wave function for two electrons occupying the same Wannier orbital is different from the product of single-electron wave functions. We diagonalize the Hamiltonian exactly on a four-site cluster and study its properties as a function of band filling. The quasiparticle weight is found to decrease and the quasiparticle effective mass to increase as the electronic band filling increases, and spectral weight in one- and two-particle spectral functions is transferred from low to high frequencies as the band filling increases. Quasiparticles at the Fermi energy are found to be more ``dressed'' when the Fermi level is in the upper half of the band (hole carriers) than when it is in the lower half of the band (electron carriers). The effective interaction between carriers is found to be strongly dependent on band filling becoming less repulsive as the band filling increases and attractive near the top of the band in certain parameter ranges. The effective interaction is most attractive when the single-hole carriers are most heavily dressed, and in the parameter regime where the effective interaction is attractive, hole carriers are found to ``undress,'' hence become more like electrons, when they pair. It is proposed that these are generic properties of electronic energy bands in solids that reflect a fundamental electron-hole asymmetry of condensed matter. The relation of these results to the understanding of superconductivity in solids is discussed.
