Photoexcited states of two-dimensional strongly correlated electron systems

Abstract

The effective Hamiltonian of the Hubbard model for multiphoton excited states is derived assuming a strong Coulomb repulsion. Diagonalizing the effective Hamiltonian exactly, the lowest energy one-photon excited state is calculated in the two-dimensional Hubbard model at half-filling, and its physical properties are investigated. For $t/U<~0.0165,$ where t is the magnitude of the transfer integral between the nearest-neighbor sites and U is an on-site Coulomb repulsion energy, ferromagnetic spin order is photogenerated from the antiferromagnetic ground state, and, for $t/U>~0.0166,$ antiferromagnetic spin order survives one-photon excitation. Photoinjected opposite charges are unbound because of strong electron correlation for $t/U<~0.08,$ and bound for $t/U>~0.08.$ The probability that the photoinjected opposite charges are on nearest-neighbor sites is strongly suppressed through all the correlation regions including this charge-bound region. We see a tendency toward spin-charge separation, but the coupling is not small in the one-photon excited state. The local spin structure around the bound positive and negative charges injected by photoexcitation is quite different from that induced by two-hole doping; this result suggests that multiphoton excitation will generate an electronic order which differs from that generated by doping.

Photoinduced superconducting states in strongly correlated electron systems

Akira Takahashi, Hiroki Gomi, Masaki Aihara

We theoretically investigate the properties of multiphoton excited states in strongly correlated two-dimensional electron systems. The effective Hamiltonian of the Hubbard model for the multiphoton excited states is derived assuming strong Coulomb repulsion. Diagonalizing the effective Hamiltonian exactly, the lowest energy state in two-photon excited manifold is calculated in the 20 site two-dimensional square lattice at half filling. Analysis of correlation functions suggests that the antiferromagnetic spin order characteristic of the half filled ground state is destroyed by two-photon excitation, and two different d-wave superconducting states and a spiral spin state are photogenerated.

Photogenerated States in a Highly Correlated Electron System

M. Aihara, Akira Takahashi, H. Gomi

We study the properties of photogenerated states of strongly correlated electron systems (SCES) with using the 'excited-state' t-J Hamiltonian. The lowest energy state in the two-photon excited manifold is calculated for the 20 site two-dimensional square lattice at half filling. The analysis of the off-diagonal order suggests that the d-wave superconducting state is photogenerated. We propose an optical method using the virtual transition to avoid the temperature growth arising from the optical excitation. We also investigate the transient behavior of the photoexcited state in SCES, which distinctively reflects the spin-charge separation in SCES.

Photogenerated holon-doublon cluster states in strongly correlated low-dimensional electron systems

Hiroki Gomi, Akira Takahashi, Toshihiro Ueda +2 more

We theoretically investigate the properties of multiphoton excited states in strongly correlated one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) electron systems at half filling using the extended Hubbard model. In the 2D case, we find the photoexcited states where two or more than two holons and doublons are strongly bound, and the cluster of bound holons and doublons coexists with the surrounding antiferromagnetic (AF) spin order, for the realistic Coulomb interaction parameters. The holon-doublon cluster (HDC) states have a unique charge aggregation mechanism originating from the spin-spin interaction in the AF spin background as well as from the direct Coulomb interaction. In the 1D case, the HDC states are destabilized by the spin-spin interaction in contrast to the 2D case. These charge aggregation mechanisms are the outcomes of exotic natures of holons and doublons, and the difference in the mechanism between the 1D and 2D cases is due to the difference in the coupling between spin and charge degrees of freedom. We also calculate the light-induced absorption that enables us to experimentally observe the predicted HDC states.

Correlations in the one-dimensional Hubbard model

Wei-ming Que

Correlation effects in the one-dimensional Hubbard model are studied by application of the L-resolvent method. The calculations are well beyond one-particle mean field approximation. All correlations involving two neighboring sites are included exactly and higher order correlations are approximated. The effects of varying temperature, band filling, Coulomb repulsion and external magnetic field are investigated. Two-site correlations for non-half-filled band fillings are calculated for the first time. Some exact relations between correlation functions are derived by electron-hole symmetry. Results indicate that short-range spin correlations always favor antiferromagnetic order. Large Coulomb repulsion induces a gap in the excitation spectrum and a metal-insulator transition is predicted as the Coulomb repulsion parameter is changed.

Charge and spin excitation spectra in the one-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

Satoshi Nishimoto, Tomonori Shirakawa, Y. Ohta

We calculate spin and charge excitation spectra of the one-dimensional (1D) quarter-filled Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor $t$ and next-nearest-neighbor ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ hopping integrals using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group technique. We consider a case where $t$ $(>0)$ is much smaller than ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$ $(>0)$. First, we examine the accuracy of our method based on comparison between our result and exact noninteracting spectrum. Next, we investigate the spectra with the on-site Coulomb interaction. We find that the spin and charge excitation spectra are essentially the same as those of the 1D quarter-filled Hubbard (and $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$) model for the two 1D chains along the hopping integral ${t}^{\ensuremath{'}}$. However, the hopping integral $t$ $(<{t}^{\ensuremath{'}})$ plays a crucial role in the short-range correlations and low-energy excitaions; ferromagnetic correlation between electrons on neighboring sites is enhanced and pairing correlation between the electrons is induced. Consequently, a spin-triplet superconducting state may be derived.

Light absorption spectrum of two-dimensional Mott insulators

Hisashi Itoh, Akira Takahashi, Masaki Aihara

We theoretically investigate the light absorption spectrum of two-dimensional (2D) Mott insulators. We employ the numerical diagonalization method to calculate the light absorption spectrum with using the effective Hamiltonian for the extended Hubbard model, which is valid when the on-site Coulomb interaction energy $U$ is much larger than the nearest-neighbor transfer integral $t$ and the nearest-neighbor Coulomb interaction energy $V$. For $V=0$, the absorption spectrum consists of a broad band with a width of about $16t$ and a sharp central peak, and the energy eigenstates contributing to the absorption spectrum do not have the antiferromagnetic (AF) spin order, when $U$ is sufficiently larger than $t$. These features result from the spin-charge interplay inherent in the very strong correlation region where charge transfer term is dominant. With decreasing $U∕t$, the peak structure in absorption spectrum becomes unclear and some low energy eigenstates have the AF spin order, as a result of the spin-spin interaction term. For large $V∕t$, the dominant peak arises in the lower energy region of the spectrum. A large number of holon-doublon bound states, which have nearly the same charge but different spin structures, are responsible for this peak, in contrast to the conventional exciton state. This is also in contrast to the charge bound states in one-dimensional (1D) Mott insulators, where a single energy eigenstate dominates the optical transition moment as a result of the spin-charge separation. The essentially different absorption spectra between the 1D and 2D Mott insulators originate from the difference in the coupling between spin and charge degrees of freedom.
