Polaronic Band Structure of Holstein Model

Shaolong Wan, K. Wang

Published Feb 1, 2000• 6 citations
Publisher

Abstract

A new concise approach is presented for analytic study of the properties of the Holstein model. New analytic results for the polaronic band structure and phonon distribution, of the Holstein molecular crystal model, are given in one dimension. And all analytic results given are in accordance with the known numerical research results.

Analytic Study on Some Properties of the Holstein Model

Shaolong Wan, Wang Ke-Lin

A new ansatz is presented for analytic study of the properties of the Holstein model. New analytic results for the polaronic band structure, ground state energy, phonon distribution, hopping probability of electron, and effective masses, of the Holstein molecular crystal model, are given in one dimension. All the analytic results obtained are in accord with the numerical results completed recently and valid both in the adiabatic and nonadiabatic regimes, and accurate enough in the region of validity.

Analysis of Polaron Band Formation with the One-Dimensional Holstein Model

Ge Ming, Gan Qin, Shaolong Wan

We present an analytic result of the polaronic band structure by using the one-dimensional Holstein model on an infinite lattice. The single-phonon effect is used to investigate the ground state properties, such as the polaronic band structure, ground state energy, phonon distribution and effective mass, which agree with the numerical and analytic results obtained recently in the region from the weak coupling to the intermediate coupling.

Polaron band formation in the Holstein model

Gerhard Wellein, Holger Fehske

We present numerical exact results for the polaronic band structure of the Holstein molecular crystal model in one and two dimensions. The use of a direct Lanczos diagonalization technique, preserving the full dynamics and quantum nature of phonons, allows us to analyze in detail the renormalization of both quasiparticle bandwidth and dispersion by the electron-phonon interaction. For the two-dimensional case some of our exact data are compared with the results obtained in the framework of a recently developed finite-cluster strong-coupling perturbation theory.

A new perspective on the Holstein polaron problem

W. Stephan

The single-polaron band structure of the Holstein model in one and two dimensions is studied using a new form of resummed strong-coupling perturbation theory. Well converged results are obtained for phonon frequencies of the order of the hopping integral and strong to intermediate electron-phonon coupling. The polaron band structure at intermediate coupling is shown to deviate markedly from that of a nearest-neighbor tight-binding model, and is in fact similar in shape to the prediction of weak-coupling self-consistent perturbation theory.

Phonon spectral function of the Holstein polaron

Jan Loos, Martin Hohenadler, Andreas Alvermann +1 more

The phonon spectral function of the one-dimensional Holstein model is obtained within weak and strong-coupling approximations based on analytical self-energy calculations.The characteristic excitations found in the limit of small charge-carrier density are related to the known (electronic) spectral properties of Holstein polarons such as the polaron band dispersion.Particular emphasis is laid on the different physics occurring in the adiabatic and antiadiabatic regimes, respectively.Comparison is made with a cluster approach exploiting exact numerical results on small systems to yield an approximation for the thermodynamic limit.This method, similar to cluster perturbation theory, confirms the analytical findings, and yields accurate results also in the intermediate-coupling regime.
