Predominance of Antiferromagnetism in Two-dimensional Underdoped Hubbard Model

Abstract

Most studies of square-lattice Hubbard models in view of cuprate superconductors hitherto have neglected a band-renormalization effect (BRE) owing to strong electron correlation, especially, for an antiferromagnetic (AF) order. In this study, we introduce BRE into a d -wave superconducting and an AF states independently in the framework of many-body variation theory. It is found that, in sharp contrast to usual understandings, energy of an AF state is sizably reduced by BRE, and the AF area in the ground-state phase diagram is greatly expanded to cover the whole underdoped regime. The AF state with BRE exhibits distinct features according as the value of diagonal hopping ratio t ′/ t is greater or less than t ′/ t ∼ – 0.05.

Band-renormalization effects on antiferromagnetism and d-wave superconductivity in two-dimensional t-J model

Ryo Sato, Hisatoshi Yokoyama

Recent studies reported that antiferromagnetic (AF) states become stable and d -wave superconducting ( d -SC) states are almost excluded in underdoped strongly correlated Hubbard models in two dimensions. In a viewpoint of many-body variational theory, this result stems from a band-renormalization effect (BRE) in AF states. Here, using a variational Monte Carlo method, BRE on AF and d -SC states are studied in the t-t'-J model, in which d -SC (AF) states have been considered to be more stable (fragile) than in the Hubbard model. Many features are qualitatively similar to the Hubbard model including effectiveness of BRE and the existence of a Lifshitz transition in AF states. However, a d -SC state becomes more stable than an AF state widely in the underdoped regime for J/t =0.3, in contrast to the Hubbard model.

Band Renormalization Effect on Interplay between Antiferromagnetism and Superconductivity in Hubbard Model

Kenji Kobayashi, Hisatoshi Yokoyama

To study the relationship between antiferromagnetism (AF) and superconductivity (SC) in cuprate superconductors, we have performed a variational Monte Carlo calculation on the two-dimensional Hubbard model with a diagonal transfer t' [1,2]. The following improvements are introduced into the variational function: (1) Coexistence of AF and d-wave singlet gaps that allows a continuous description of their interplay, (2) band renormalization effect owing to the electron correlation up to the fourth-neighbor hoppings, and (3) refined doublon-holon correlation factors. It is found that the AF and SC orders become coexistent or competitive according to the values of model parameters, U/t, t'/t, and δ (doping rate), and the effective band is strongly renormalized for large U/t and low doping rates, so as to recover the nesting condition favorable to AF.

Band-Renormalization Effect on Superconductivity and Antiferromagnetism in Two-Dimensional t–J Model

Ryo Sato, Hisatoshi Yokoyama

The coexistence or exclusivity of \(d_{x^{2} - y^{2}}\)-wave superconducting (d-SC) and antiferromagnetic (AF) orders and instability toward phase separation (PS) are reconsidered for the square-lattice t–J model with the diagonal transfer (t′) term near half filling. To reliably treat the strong correlation including the local constraint of no double occupancy, we use a variational Monte Carlo method, in which the band-renormalization effect (BRE) is also incorporated. The results are compared with those recently obtained for the corresponding Hubbard model [J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 85, 074701 (2016)]. It is found that BRE has a very strong effect on the AF order and greatly modifies the ground-state phase diagram in the t′–δ space (δ: doping rate) proposed in previous studies, especially for large |t′/t|. In a wide range of t′/t (|t′/t| ≤ 0.5) and for any underdoped δ (\( \lesssim \) 0.15), the AF order arises for J/t = 0.3, similarly to in the Hubbard model. In contrast with the Hubbard model, however, the d-SC order also arises down to small δ in a wide range of t′/t (\( \gtrsim \) −0.2) and coexists with the AF order even for t′/t < 0 (type-II AF regime). Furthermore, there is no instability toward PS for any t′/t and δ for J/t = 0.3.

Band-renormalization Effect on Relationship between Superconductivity and Antiferromagnetism in t-J Model

Kenji Kobayashi, R. Sato, H. Yokoyama

Having cuprate superconductors in mind, we study a band-renormalization effect on a coexisting state of antiferromagnetism (AF) and superconductivity (SC) in a t-J model on a square lattice with a diagonal transfer t ′ and three-site hopping terms, using a variational Monte Carlo method. It is found that this t-J model with t ′/ t = –0.3 exhibits coexistence of AF and SC orders in lightly doped regime and robust SC for a wide range of doping rate δ . This result contrasts with the previous results of a large- U/t Hubbard model, in which the two orders are mutually exclusive and a coexisting state does not appear; the SC state appears only in heavily doped regime (δ≳ 0.2), after the pure AF state vanishes at δ ∼ 0.2.

Relationship between superconductivity and anisotropy in two-dimensional Hubbard model

Kenji Kobayashi, Hisatoshi Yokoyama

Abstract In connection with the symmetry-breaking phenomena found in cuprate superconductors, we check whether an anisotropy spontaneously appears or not in strongly correlated electrons that exhibit superconductivity and/or antiferromagnetism. A variational Monte Carlo method is applied to the square-lattice Hubbard model (U/t = 12) with diagonal transfer t′. In the trial wave function used, we introduce band renormalization factors including adjustable parameters for the anisotropy corresponding to the fourfold rotational symmetry breaking. It is confirmed that the anisotropy appears in the overdoped regime, where the Fermi-liquid features are predominant. In the underdoped area, the anisotropy does not appear for t′/t = 0 and +0.3, whereas it possibly appears in the underdoped regime for t′/t = −0.3.
