Hall conductivity and Fermi surface in highly correlated systems

Horacio E. Castillo, C. A. Balseiro

Published Jan 6, 1992• 34 citations
Publisher

Abstract

We calculate exactly the one-particle spectral densities and Hall conductivity for the two-dimensional Hubbard model in the large-U limit, for two different finite clusters. The Fermi surface obtained from the one-particle spectral functions is consistent with Luttinger's theorem, but the Hall conductivity changes from electronlike for a dilute system to holelike for a nearly half-filled system, indicating the deconfinement of charge and spin excitations in a two-dimensional system.

Hall Coefficient for the Two-Dimensional Hubbard Model

Fakher F. Assaad, Masatoshi Imada

We calculate with quantum Monte Carlo methods the Hall coefficient ${R}_{H}$ for the 2D Hubbard model at small hole doping near half filling. In the weak coupling regime ${R}_{H}$ is electronlike. In the strong coupling regime, where the mapping to the $t$- $J$ model is justified, ${R}_{H}$ is electronlike with small amplitude in the temperature regime $T>U$, $T<J$ and holelike in the temperature regime $J<T<U$. Our results are consistent with the picture of a Mott transition driven by the divergence of the effective mass as opposed to the vanishing of the number of charge carriers.

Broken Luttinger theorem in the two-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard model

Ian S. Osborne, Thereza Paiva, Nandini Trivedi

One of the fundamental questions about high-temperature cuprate superconductors is the size of the Fermi surface underlying the superconducting state. By analyzing the single-particle spectral function for the Fermi-Hubbard model as a function of repulsion $U$ and chemical potential $\ensuremath{\mu}$, we find that the Fermi surface in the normal state undergoes a transition from a large Fermi surface matching the Luttinger volume as expected in a Fermi liquid, to a Fermi surface that encloses fewer electrons that we dub the ``Luttinger breaking'' phase, as the Mott insulator is approached. This transition into a non-Fermi-liquid phase that violates the Luttinger count occurs at a critical density in the absence of any other broken symmetry. We obtain the Fermi-surface contour from the spectral weight ${A}_{\mathbf{k}}(\ensuremath{\omega}=0)$ and from an analysis of the singularities of the Green's function $\mathrm{Re}\phantom{\rule{0.16em}{0ex}}{G}_{\mathbf{k}}(E=0)$, calculated using determinantal quantum Monte Carlo and analytic continuation methods. We discuss our numerical results in connection with experiments on Hall measurements, scanning tunneling spectroscopy, and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

SINGLE-PARTICLE AND OPTICAL EXCITATIONS IN DOPED MOTT- HUBBARD INSULATORS

W. Stephan, Peter Horsch

Recent numerical results for the single-particle spectral function and optical conductivity of the two-dimensional Hubbard and t−J models are reviewed. Already for two holes in systems of sixteen to twenty sites (≥ 10% doping) a large electronic Fermi surface, compatible with Luttinger’s theorem, is observed. The full single-particle Green’s function is examined, and is shown to exhibit quasiparticle-like behavior, with dispersion consistent with the band structure of the non-interacting limit, and band width scaling approximately as J for J smaller than t. The optical conductivity of the Hubbard and t−J models is shown to have many features in common with recent experiments on copper oxide superconductors. The importance of the often neglected 3-site terms which arise in the derivation of the t−J model from the Hubbard model for optical properties is discussed.

Spectral properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

V. Zlatić, K. D. Schotte, Gudrun Schliecker

The self-energy of the hole-doped two-dimensional (2D) Hubbard model is calculated to second order in the interaction U and the ensuing renormalization of the spectral properties and of the Fermi surface is discussed. In uncorrelated systems the square-shaped Fermi surface separates the Fermi surface closed around the \ensuremath{\Gamma} point (with more holes than particles) from the Fermi surface closed around the Z point (with more particles than holes). In a correlated system a topological change from a Fermi surface centered around the \ensuremath{\Gamma} point to a Fermi surface closed around a Z point is induced, either by increasing the interaction or by diminishing the concentration of holes. The shape of the renormalized spectral function ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathbf{p}}$(\ensuremath{\omega}) is momentum dependent. Using ${\mathit{A}}_{\mathbf{p}}$(\ensuremath{\omega}) we evaluate dispersion of single-particle excitations. At low energies the band of quasiparticles with reduced bandwidth is clearly seen. At high energies and far away from the Fermi surface the spectra acquire an additional peak that describes excitations in the Hubbard band. The dispersion in Hubbard bands is weaker along the \ensuremath{\Gamma}-Z, than \ensuremath{\Gamma}-X or X-Z direction. The density of states of a correlated system, as given by the perturbation theory, remains logarithmically singular but the singular weight is reduced with respect to the uncorrelated one. In addition, the correlations transfer the spectral weight out of the low-energy region, where only a narrow Kondo-like structure seems to remain. The spectral properties of the 2D Hubbard model obtained by the truncated perturbation expansion resemble in many ways the recent experimental data on metallic cuprates.

Exact Results for Highly Correlated Electron Systems in One Dimension

P. Schlottmann

One-dimensional conductors are a long-standing topic of research with direct applications to organic conductors and mesoscopic rings. The discovery of the ceramic high-temperature superconductors has revitalized the interest in low-dimensional charge and spin fluctuations of highly correlated electron systems. Several mechanisms proposed to explain the high-T c superconductors invoke properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model, but probably also some one-dimensional aspects are relevant. Numerous one-dimensional models for correlated electrons have been studied with various approximate, asymptotically exact and exact methods. These results lead to the concept of Luttinger liquid for interacting electron gases without excitation gaps (metallic systems). Characteristic of Luttinger liquids are the charge and spin separation, marginal Fermi liquid properties, e.g. the absence of quasiparticles in the vicinity of the Fermi surface, nonuniversal power-law singularities in the one-particle spectral function and the related absence of a discontinuity in the momentum distribution at the Fermi level, the power-law decay of correlation functions for long times and large distances, persistent currents in finite rings, etc. Due to the peculiarities of the phase space in one dimension some of the models have sufficient conserved currents to be completely integrable. We review exact results derived within the framework of Bethe's ansatz for integrable one-dimensional models of correlated electrons. The Bethe-ansatz method is presented by explicitly showing the steps leading to the solution of the N-component electron gas interacting via a δ-function potential (repulsive and attractive interaction), which is probably the simplest model of correlated electrons. Emphasis is given to the procedure to extract the groundstate properties, the classification of states, the excitation spectrum, the thermodynamics and finite size effects, such as critical exponents of correlation functions and persistent currents. The method is then applied to numerous other models, e.g. (i) a two-band model involving attractive and repulsive potentials and crystalline fields splitting the bands, (ii) the traditional Hubbard chain with attractive and repulsive U, (iii) the degenerate Hubbard model with repulsive U, which displays a metal–insulator transition at a finite U, (iv) a two-band Hubbard model with repulsive U, (v) the traditional supersymmetric t–J model (vi) a two-band supersymmetric t–J model with band-splitting and (vii) the N-component supersymmetric t–J model. Finally, results for models with long-range interactions, in particular r-2 and sinh -2(r) potentials, are briefly reviewed.

Self-energy and Fermi surface of the two-dimensional Hubbard model

R. Eder, Kazuhiro Seki, Y. Ohta

We present an exact diagonalization study of the self-energy of the two-dimensional Hubbard model. To increase the range of available cluster sizes we use a corrected $t$-$J$ model to compute approximate Green's functions for the Hubbard model. This allows to obtain spectra for clusters with 18 and 20 sites. The self-energy has several ``bands'' of poles with strong dispersion and extended incoherent continua with $k$-dependent intensity. We fit the self-energy by a minimal model and use this to extrapolate the cluster results to the infinite lattice. The resulting Fermi surface shows a transition from hole pockets in the underdoped regime to a large Fermi surface in the overdoped regime. We demonstrate that hole pockets can be completely consistent with the Luttinger theorem. Introduction of next-nearest-neighbor hopping changes the self-energy strongly and the spectral function with nonvanishing next-nearest-neighbor hopping in the underdoped region is in good agreement with angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy in the cuprates.
