Abstract

We study the three-band Hubbard model for the cuprate superconductors using Quantum Monte Carlo simulations and the fluctuation exchange approximation including a self-consistent many-body renormalization of the single-particle propagator. The energy dispersion of the low-lying one-particle excitations is in very good agreement with spectroscopic measurements for a hole doping concentration δ = 0.25 of the CuO2 planes. At the same doping, we examine the spin susceptibility yielding a non-ordered phase with short-range incommensurate fluctuations near the antiferromagnetic wave vector. In the superconducting regime, the interaction vertex for the pairing correlation function in the extended s-wave channel shows a maximum for δ = 0.20, resembling the dependence of transition temperature Tc on doping.

QUANTUM MONTE CARLO SIMULATIONS FOR THE THREE-BAND HUBBARD MODEL

G. Dopf, Alejandro Muramatsu, Werner R. Hanke

We present in this article results of Quantum Monte Carlo simulations for the three-band Hubbard model obtained both with the grand canonical approach as well as with the T =0 formalism. A direct comparison of Quantum Monte Carlo results with experimental values for the charge-transfer gap leads to a set of parameters for the three-band Hubbard model that consistently describes salient features of the high- T c superconductors. We find long-range antiferromagnetic order in the undoped case as well as an incommensurate structure for a doping concentration of δ≈0.20. Moreover the magnetic susceptibility as a function of doping δ is in a qualitative agreement with experiments. Concerning dynamical properties, we have evaluated the spectral density [Formula: see text]. The dispersion of the state with the lowest excitation energy is in very good agreement with experimental photoemission and inverse photoemission experiments for a doping concentration of δ=0.25. In the superconducting regime, we find that the interaction vertex for the pairing correlation function in the extended s-channel shows a maximum for δ~0.20, resembling the dependence of T c on doping. This feature is not present for other symmetries of the order parameter or in other parameter regions.

Self-consistent weak-coupling study of the three-band CuO2 model

John Luo, N. E. Bickers

The ``fluctuation-exchange'' approximation, a Baym-Kadanoff theory used previously to treat the one-band Hubbard model, is used to investigate a three-band model for the ${\mathrm{CuO}}_{2}$ planes in the cuprate superconductors. Attention is restricted to (a) nearest-neighbor copper-oxygen hopping and (b) a Hubbard-like Coulomb interaction on copper sites only. Orbital-occupancy factors are shown to be in good agreement with previous quantum simulation studies. An instability eigenvalue analysis confirms that, as in the one-band model, the most likely channel for superconductivity is a ${\mathit{d}}_{\mathit{x}}^{2}$-${\mathit{y}}^{2}$ singlet. The scale for onset of exponentially long-ranged antiferromagnetic correlations is compared with results for the one-band model, and the role of hybridization in reducing the effective Coulomb interaction is studied using a transformation to Wannier states.

Pairing correlations in the cuprates: A numerical study of the three-band Hubbard model

Peizhi Mai, Giovanni Balduzzi, Steven Johnston +1 more

We study the three-band Hubbard model for the copper oxide plane of the high-temperature superconducting cuprates using determinant quantum Monte Carlo and the dynamical cluster approximation (DCA) and provide a comprehensive view of the pairing correlations in this model using these methods. Specifically, we compute the pair-field susceptibility and study its dependence on temperature, doping, interaction strength, and charge-transfer energy. Using the DCA, we also solve the Bethe-Salpeter equation for the two-particle Green's function in the particle-particle channel to determine the transition temperature to the superconducting phase on smaller clusters. Our calculations reproduce many aspects of the cuprate phase diagram and indicate that there is an ``optimal'' value of the charge-transfer energy for the model where ${T}_{c}$ is largest. These results have implications for our understanding of superconductivity in both the cuprates and other doped charge-transfer insulators.

Correlated-Electron Systems and High-Temperature Superconductivity

Takashi Yanagisawa, Mitake Miyazaki, Yamaji K.

We present recent theoretical results on superconductivity in correlated-electron systems, especially in the two-dimensional Hubbard model and the three-band d-p model. The mechanism of superconductivity in high-temperature superconductors has been extensively studied on the basis of various electronic models and also electron-phonon models. In this study, we investigate the properties of superconductivity in correlated-electron systems by using numerical methods such as the variational Monte Carlo method and the quantum Monte Carlomethod. The Hubbard model is one of basic models for strongly correlated electron systems, and is regarded as the model of cuprate high temperature superconductors. The d-p model is more realistic model for cuprates. The superconducting condensation energy obtained by adopting the Gutzwiller ansatz is in reasonable agreement with the condensation energy estimated for YBa2Cu3O7. We show the phase diagram of the ground state using this method. We have further investigated the stability of striped and checkerboard states in the under-doped region. Holes doped in a half-filled square lattice lead to an incommensurate spin and charge density wave. The relationship of the hole density x and incommensurability δ, δ~x, is satisfied in the lower doping region, as indicated by the variationalMonte Carlocalculations for the two-dimensional Hubbard model. A checkerboard-like charge-density modulation with a roughly period has also been observed by scanning tunneling microscopy experiments in Bi2212 and Na-CCOC compounds. We have performed a variational Monte Carlo simulation on a two-dimensional t-t′-t″- U Hubbard model with a Bi-2212 type band structure and found that the period checkerboard spin modulation, that is characterized by multi Q vectors, is indeed stabilized. We have further performed an investigation by using a quantumMonte Carlomethod, which is a numerical method that can be used to simulate the behavior of correlated electron systems. We present a new algorithm of the quantum Monte Carlo diagonalization that is a method for the evaluation of expectation value without the negative sign problem. We compute pair correlation functions and show that pair correlation is indeed enhanced with hole doping.

Fluctuating charge-density-wave correlations in the three-band Hubbard model

Peizhi Mai, Benjamin Cohen-Stead, Thomas Maier +1 more

The high-temperature superconducting cuprates host unidirectional spin- and charge-density-wave orders that can intertwine with superconductivity in nontrivial ways. While the charge components of these stripes have now been observed in nearly all cuprate families, their detailed evolution with doping varies across different materials and at high and low temperatures. We address this problem using nonperturbative determinant quantum Monte Carlo calculations for the three-band Hubbard model. Using an efficient implementation, we can resolve the model's fluctuating spin and charge modulations and map their evolution as a function of the charge transfer energy and doping. We find that the incommensurability of the charge modulations is decoupled from the spin modulations and decreases with hole doping, consistent with experimental measurements at high temperatures. These findings support the proposal that the high-temperature charge correlations are distinct from the intertwined stripe order observed at low-temperature and in the single-band Hubbard model.

Anomalous low-doping phase of the Hubbard model

C. Gröber, R. Eder, Werner R. Hanke

We present results of a systematic quantum Monte Carlo study for the single-band Hubbard model. Thereby we evaluated single-particle spectra (PES and IPES), two-particle spectra (spin and density correlation functions), and the dynamical correlation function of suitably defined diagnostic operators, all as a function of temperature and hole doping. The results allow us to identify different physical regimes. Near half-filling we find an anomalous ``Hubbard-I phase,'' where the band structure is, up to some minor modifications, consistent with the Hubbard-I predictions. At lower temperatures, where the spin response becomes sharp, additional dispersionless ``bands'' emerge due to the dressing of electrons/holes with spin excitations. We present a simple phenomenological fit that reproduces the band structure of the insulator quantitatively. The Fermi surface volume in the low-doping phase, as derived from the single-particle spectral function, is not consistent with the Luttinger theorem, but qualitatively in agreement with the predictions of the Hubbard-I approximation. The anomalous phase extends up to a hole concentration of $\ensuremath{\approx}15%,$ i.e., the underdoped region in the phase diagram of high-${T}_{c}$ superconductors. We also investigate the nature of the magnetic ordering transition in the single-particle spectra. We show that the transition to a spin-density wave-like band structure is not accomplished by the formation of any resolvable ``precursor bands,'' but rather by a (spectroscopically invisible) band of spin-3/2 quasiparticles. We discuss implications for the ``remnant Fermi surface'' in insulating cuprate compounds and the shadow bands in the doped materials.
