Theory of the quasi-one-dimensional electron gas with strong "on-site" interactions

Abstract

It is shown that a quasi-one-dimensional system with strong attractive or repulsive coupling between electrons on the same site is equivalent to a Bose gas with hard core and longer-range interactions and to a Heisenberg-Ising magnet. Interchain and intrachain hopping and coupling are included and the equivalences are derived by elementary degenerate perturbation theory. Electronic correlation functions are derived from known pseudomagnetic ones and are used to discuss the circumstances in which superconductivity, charge- or spin-density wave transitions occur in the coupled chains.

Theory of the quasi-one-dimensional electron gas with strong "on site" interaction

Michael Fowler

A quasi-one-dimensional system with strong attraction between electrons on the same site is analyzed in terms of an equivalent weakly interacting array of Heisenberg-Ising spin chains. The single-chain ground-state properties and elementary excitation spectrum are discussed. It is shown that for certain ranges of the coupling constants, gapless excitations rather widely believed to be present do not in fact exist. Some inadequacies in a recent derivation of a mean-field ordering temperature for interacting spin chains are pointed out, and a new derivation is given. The application of this technique to the quasi-one-dimensional electron system is discussed.

Phase Transitions of A Quasi-One-Dimensional Fermi Gas

T. Sugiyama

Phase transitions of a quasi-one-dimensional Fermi gas are studied by the use of the renormalization group method for the fermion system without the bosonization. Intrachain backward and forward scatterings, pair electron hopping between different chains and exchange scattering of electrons in different chains are taken account of. Pair electron hopping gives rise to the singlet and triplet superconductor phase transitions. Electron exchange scattering gives rise to the spin density wave and charge density wave transitions. Calculation is made by the use of the one-dimensional dispersion. Following Menyhárd's method (Ref. 1) for the model with interchain backward scattering only, the change of the fluctuation from the one-dimensional region to the three-dimensional region is described. The transition temperatures are given by the bare couplings at high temperatures.

One-dimensional optical lattices and impenetrable bosons

Miguel A. Cazalilla

We study the limit of large on-site repulsion of the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model at low densities, and derive a strong-coupling effective Hamiltonian. By taking the lattice parameter to zero, the Hamiltonian becomes a continuum model of fermions with attractive interactions. The leading corrections to the internal energy of a hard-core-boson (Tonks) gas as well as the (finite temperature) pair correlations of a strongly interacting Bose gas are calculated. We explore the possibility of realizing, in an optical lattice, a Luttinger liquid with stronger density correlations than the Tonks gas. A quantum phase transition to a charge-density-wave Mott insulator is also discussed.

Magnetic excitation spectra of strongly correlated quasi-one-dimensional systems: Heisenberg versus Hubbard-like behavior

Alberto Nocera, N. D. Patel, Jaime A. Fernandez-Baca +2 more

We study the effects of charge degrees of freedom on the spin excitation dynamics in quasi-one-dimensional magnetic materials. Using the density matrix renormalization group method, we calculate the dynamical spin structure factor of the Hubbard model at half electronic filling on a chain and on a ladder geometry, and compare the results with those obtained using the Heisenberg model, where charge degrees of freedom are considered frozen. For both chains and two-leg ladders, we find that the Hubbard model spectrum qualitatively resembles the Heisenberg spectrum---with low-energy peaks resembling spinonic excitations---already at intermediate on-site repulsion as small as $U/t\ensuremath{\sim}2--3$, although ratios of peak intensities at different momenta continue evolving with increasing $U/t$ converging only slowly to the Heisenberg limit. We discuss the implications of these results for neutron scattering experiments and we propose criteria to establish the values of $U/t$ of quasi-one-dimensional systems described by one-orbital Hubbard models from experimental information.

Strongly interacting quantum gases in one-dimensional traps

Li Yang, Liming Guan, Han Pu

Under second-order degenerate perturbation theory, we show that the physics of $N$ particles with arbitrary spin confined in a one-dimensional trap in the strongly interacting regime can be described by superexchange interaction. An effective spin-chain Hamiltonian (non-translationally-invariant Sutherland model) can be constructed from this procedure. For spin-1/2 particles, this model reduces to the non-translationally-invariant Heisenberg model, where a transition between Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (AFM) and ferromagnetic (FM) states is expected to occur when the interaction strength is tuned from the strongly repulsive to the strongly attractive limit. We show that the FM and the AFM states can be distinguished by two different methods: the first is based on their distinct responses to a spin-dependent magnetic gradient, and the second is based on their distinct momentum distributions. We confirm the validity of the spin-chain model by comparison with results obtained from several unbiased techniques.

Weak-coupling phase diagram of the extended Hubbard model with correlated-hopping interaction

G. I. Japaridze, A. P. Kampf

A one-dimensional model of interacting electrons with on-site U, nearest-neighbor V, and correlated-hopping interaction ${T}^{*}$ is studied at half filling using the continuum-limit field theory approach. The ground-state phase diagram is obtained for a wide range of coupling constants. In addition to the insulating spin- and charge-density wave phases for large U and V, respectively, we identify bond-located ordered phases corresponding to an enhanced Peierls instability in the system for ${T}^{*}>0, |U\ensuremath{-}2V|<{8T}^{*}/\ensuremath{\pi}$ and to a staggered magnetization located on bonds between sites for ${T}^{*}<0, |U\ensuremath{-}2V|<8|{T}^{*}|/\ensuremath{\pi}.$ The general ground-state phase diagram including insulating, metallic, and superconducting phases is discussed.
