Next-Nearest Neighbour Interactions in the One, Two, and Three Dimensional Holstein Model

Abstract

Allowing a single electron to hop to next-nearest neighbours (NNN) in addition to closest atomic sites in the Holstein model, a modified Trugman method is applied to exactly calculate the effect on the polaronic effective mass in one, two, and three dimensions, building on the previous study of the one-dimensional NNN Holstein model. We also present perturbative calculations and a heuristic scaling factor for the coupling strength and ion frequency to nearly map the NNN Holstein model back onto the original Holstein model.

The Effect of Next-Nearest Neighbour Hopping in the One, Two, and Three Dimensional Holstein Model

When account is taken of the modified electronic bandwidth near the electron energy, we find that including NNN hopping effectively increases the polaron effective mass.

Particularities of polaron formation in the extended Holstein model with next nearest neighbor transfer

Monodeep Chakraborty, Jayita Chatterjee, Holger Fehske

Employing a largely unbiased variational exact diagonalization technique, we analyze the consequences of longer-ranged electron hopping and electron-phonon interaction on polaron formation in one dimension. Having at our disposal the accurate ground-state energy and wave function, we calculate and discuss various physical quantities, such as the renormalized band structure, effective mass, wave-function renormalization factor, phonon dressing, and Drude weight, characterizing the properties of the polaronic quasiparticle. We demonstrate that the electron-phonon coupling affects the relative strength of the nearest neighbor (NN) and next nearest neighbor (NNN) hopping processes in a dynamic way. Most notably we observe that the minimum of the polaron band, occurring at a finite momentum for large negative ratio between NN and NNN transfer, jumps to zero momentum as the electron-phonon coupling exceeds a critical one, thereby causing a rather sharp polaron transition in the one-dimensional extended Holstein model. The signatures of this transition are seen in the effective mass and polaron mobility, and therefore should be easily detectable by transport measurements.

Many-polaron effects in the Holstein model

Sanjoy Datta, Arnab Das, Sudhakar Yarlagadda

We derive an effective polaronic interaction Hamiltonian, exact to second order in perturbation, for the spinless one-dimensional Holstein model. The small parameter is given by the ratio of the hopping term $(t)$ to the polaronic energy $({g}^{2}{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{0})$ in the whole region of validity for our perturbation; however, the exception is the regime of extreme antiadiabaticity $(t∕{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{0}\ensuremath{\leqslant}0.1)$ and small electron-phonon coupling $(g<1)$ where the small parameter is $t∕{\ensuremath{\omega}}_{0}$. We map our polaronic Hamiltonian onto a next-to-nearest-neighbor interaction anisotropic Heisenberg spin model. By studying the mass gap and the power-law exponent of the spin-spin correlation function for our Heisenberg spin model, we analyze the Luttinger liquid to charge-density wave transition at half filling in the effective polaronic Hamiltonian. We calculate the structure factor at all fillings and find that the spin-spin correlation length decreases as one deviates from half filling. We also extend our derivation of polaronic Hamiltonian to $d$ dimensions.

Holstein polarons and triplet bipolarons with NNN hopping

Monodeep Chakraborty, A. Taraphder, Mona Berciu

We study the ground state of 1D Holstein single polaron with next nearest neighbour electron hopping (NNN), employing a variational approximation based on exact diagonalization. Our investigation reveals that, depending upon the sign and magnitude of the NNN hopping integral with respect to nearest neighbour hopping, the polaron band minima may occur at non-zero kGS. We compare the present scenario with the SSH polarons, where a similar feature is also observed, albeit, due to very different mechanism. Our initial investigation of triplet bipolarons, in presence of an attractive extended Hubbard interactions, further substantiates the differences between the present model and the SSH model.

Study of the one-dimensional Holstein model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping

Monodeep Chakraborty, A. N. Das, Atisdipankar Chakrabarti

We present the effect of next-nearest-neighbor hopping on Holstein polarons. The energy and wavefunction of the ground state and first excited state are obtained by using a conjugate-gradient technique on the variational Hilbert space of the electron-phonon (e-ph) system. We increase the size of the variational space systematically to obtain high accuracy. With the converged wavefunction at our disposal we obtain various physical quantities and correlation functions to get a holistic insight into the physics of e-ph interaction. Our study reveals that the effect of next-nearest-neighbor hopping is most prominent at the physically interesting crossover regime of the e-ph coupling and in the adiabatic regime. We have also performed analytical strong coupling second order perturbation with a Lang-Firsov (LF) phonon basis to account for some features in the strong coupling regime.

Perturbation theory of the mass enhancement for a polaron coupled to acoustic phonons

Zhou Li, Carl J. Chandler, F. Marsiglio

We use both a perturbative Green's function analysis and standard perturbative quantum mechanics to calculate the decrease in energy and the effective mass for an electron interacting with acoustic phonons. The interaction is between the difference in lattice displacements for neighboring ions and the hopping amplitude for an electron between those two sites. The calculations are performed in one, two, and three dimensions, and comparisons are made with results from other electron-phonon models. We also compute the spectral function and quasiparticle residue, as a function of characteristic phonon frequency. There are strong indications that this model is always polaronic on one dimension, where an unusual relation between the effective mass and the quasiparticle residue is also found.
