Conductivity in one-dimensional highly correlated electron systems

Abstract

The dc conductivity for the t-J model is exactly obtained at t=J and for the Hubbard model in one dimension. Our calculation is carried out for arbitrary band filling by use of the finite-size-scaling method based on the Bethe-ansatz solution under twisted boundary conditions. The effective transport mass defined as the inverse of the conductivity serves as a sensitive probe of the metal-insulator transition. The effective mass is extremely enhanced near half-filling both for the t-J model at t=J and the repulsive Hubbard model, which is a direct evidence of the metal-insulator transition due to the electron correlation. We observe that the large antiferromagnetic coupling J in the t-J model increases the effective mass. On the other hand, the conductivity in the attractive Hubbard model exhibits quite different properties from the repulsive models.

Luttinger liquid properties of highly correlated electron systems in one dimension

Norio Kawakami, Sung-Kil Yang

An exact description is given of the long-distance behaviour of the one-dimensional t-J model at t=J. The authors employ the Bathe ansatz method and the finite-size scaling technique in conformal field theory. The charge and spin degrees of freedom are separated, and described by two independent c=1 conformal theories. The critical exponents for the charge, spin, electron and superconducting correlation functions are obtained for arbitrary band filling. The authors then make detailed comparison of the t-J model with the repulsive Hubbard model with emphasis on the Luttinger liquid properties. Analysing the electron filling dependence they observe the enhancement of the superconducting correlations compared with the highly correlated Hubbard model. The effect of the external magnetic field at and near half-filling is also discussed.

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.

Correlation functions in the one-dimensionalt-Jmodel

Norio Kawakami, Sung-Kil Yang

The critical exponents for the charge, spin, electron, and superconducting correlation functions of the one-dimensional t-J model at t=J are obtained for arbitrary band filling. Our method is based on the Bethe-ansatz solution and the finite-size scaling analysis in conformal field theory. The long-distance behavior of the model belongs to the same universality class as the repulsive Hubbard model. Near half-filling the exponents take the values expected in the strong-correlation limit of the Hubbard model. In the low-density limit the exponents are those of the noninteracting system.

Finite-temperature charge transport in the one-dimensional Hubbard model

Fengping Jin, Robin Steinigeweg, Fabian Heidrich‐Meisner +2 more

We study the charge conductivity of the one-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model at finite temperature using the method of dynamical quantum typicality, focusing at half filling. This numerical approach allows us to obtain current autocorrelation functions from systems with as many as 18 sites, way beyond the range of standard exact diagonalization. Our data clearly suggest that the charge Drude weight vanishes with a power law as a function of system size. The low-frequency dependence of the conductivity is consistent with a finite dc value and thus with diffusion, despite large finite-size effects. Furthermore, we consider the mass-imbalanced Hubbard model for which the charge Drude weight decays exponentially with system size, as expected for a nonintegrable model. We analyze the conductivity and diffusion constant as a function of the mass imbalance and we observe that the conductivity of the lighter component decreases exponentially fast with the mass-imbalance ratio. While in the extreme limit of immobile heavy particles, the Falicov-Kimball model, there is an effective Anderson-localization mechanism leading to a vanishing conductivity of the lighter species, we resolve finite conductivities for an inverse mass ratio of $\ensuremath{\eta}\ensuremath{\gtrsim}0.25$.

Nature of carriers in one-dimensional correlated electron systems

Hiroki Tsuchiura, Masao Ogata, Yukio Tanaka +1 more

Electron densities at the edge site in one-dimensional Hubbard model and t-J model are studied by using the Bethe ansatz solutions and exact diagonalization method. It is found that the boundary is electron-attractive, or equivalently hole-repulsive, near half-filling. We propose a new criterion to determine whether the carriers in a strongly correlated system are electron-like or hole-like depending on the electronic behavior at the boundary.
