Thermodynamics of a spinless, extended Falicov-Kimball model on a triangular lattice

Abstract

The exact numerical diagonalization technique with canonical Monte-Carlo algorithm is used to study the phase transitions from low temperature (ordered) phase to high temperature (disordered) phase of spinless Falicov-Kimball model on a triangular lattice with correlated hopping (t'). The low temperature (regular, striped, bounded and segregated) phases persist up to a finite critical temperature (Tc). With increasing the correlated hopping the critical temperature decreases in regular, striped and bounded phases and exotically increases in segregated phase.

Thermodynamic studies of spin-1/2 Falicov-Kimball model (FKM) on a triangular lattice

Sant Kumar, Umesh K. Yadav, Tulika Maitra +1 more

Thermodynamic properties of the spin-dependent Falicov-Kimball model are studied on a triangular lattice for one-fourth filled case. Numerical diagonalization and Monte-Carlo simulation are used to study the thermodynamic properties. Continuous phase transitions are observed at finite temperature. We have observed that critical temperature (Tc) increases with the increase in on-site Coulomb correlation IJ. The second order nature of die transition is also revealed from the temperature dependence of specific heat.

Ground state properties of spinless extended Falicov-Kimball model on a triangular lattice with finite magnetic field

Umesh K. Yadav

Combined effects of correlated electron hopping, electron correlations and orbital magnetic field are studied on ground state properties of spinless Falicov-Kimball model (FKM). Results are obtained for finite size triangular lattice with periodic boundary conditions using numerical diagonalization and Monte-Carlo simulation techniques. It is found that the ground state configurations of electrons strongly depend on correlated electron hopping, onsite Coulomb interaction and orbital magnetic field. Several interesting configurations e.g. regular, segregated, axial and diagonal striped and hexagonal phases are found with change in correlated hopping and magnetic field. Study of density of states reveals that magnetic field induces a metal to insulator transition accompanied by segregated phase to an ordered phase. These results are applicable to the systems of recent interest like GdI2, NaTiO2 and MgV2O4 and can also be seen experimentally in cold atomic set up.

Phase transitions in the two‐dimensional Falicov–Kimball model on the triangular lattice

Hana Čenčariková, Pavol Farkašovský

Abstract A recently developed numerical method, based on the modification of exact diagonalization calculations, is used to study the ground‐state properties of the spinless Falicov–Kimball model on the triangular lattice. The phase diagram as well as the valence and metal–insulator transitions are analysed and compared with results of the conventional Falicov–Kimball model on the square lattice. It is shown that the different cluster geometry leads to various changes in basic characteristics of the model. In particular, the triangular lattice destroys the symmetry of the phase diagram as well as the valence transitions, and stabilizes the new types of spatial charge ordering – the axial stripes and the phase separated distributions of localized f ‐electrons. Studying the conducting properties of the Falicov–Kimball model on the triangular lattice, the Mott‐Hubbard transition has been observed. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Thermodynamics of the three-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model

Martin Žonda, Pavol Farkašovský, Hana Čenčariková

The finite-temperature properties of the three-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model are studied in the symmetric case using the classical Monte-Carlo method. Analysing the temperature dependence of the specific heat C V,N we have found that the system exhibits the phase transition from the low-temperature ordered phase to the high-temperature disordered phase. The critical temperature of the phase transition is calculated numerically from the position of the maximum of C V,N and it is shown that its value in the three-dimensional case is considerably enhanced in comparison to the two-dimensional case. In addition, the temperature dependence of the itinerant electron density of states (DOS) is analysed. For very low-temperatures we have observed a formation of fine structure inside the principal gap that transforms to a pseudo-gap at higher temperatures and becomes temperature independent for sufficiently large temperatures. In this temperature region we have calculated DOS for different Coulomb interactions and found the Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transition.

Next-Nearest-Neighbor Hopping in the Falicov-Kimball Model

Katarzyna Czajka, Maciej M. Maśka

Results of Monte Carlo simulations for the spinless Falicov-Kimball model with the next-nearest-neighbor hopping are presented.We find the critical value of the next-nearest-neighbor hopping integral, below which the low temperature configuration of the localized particles is the same as in the presence of only the nearest-neighbor hopping.Beyond this critical value the localized particles form horizontal or vertical stripes.

Electronic phase transitions in the spinless falicov-kimball model with correlated hopping

Pavol Farkašovský, Štefan Gál

The extrapolation of small-cluster exact-diagonalization calculations is used to examine the influence of correlated hopping on valence and metal-insulator transitions in the one-dimensional Falicov-Kimball model. It is shown that in the half-filled band case the ground-state phase diagram as well as the picture of valence and metal-insulator transitions found for the conventional Falicov-Kimball model (without correlated hopping) are strongly changed when the correlated hopping term is added. The effect of correlated hopping is so strong that it can induce the insulator-metal transition. Outside half-filling correlated hopping stabilizes the segregated phase in the ground-state, however, the nature of the ground-state remains qualitatively unchanged.
