Critical Behaviour near the Mott Metal–Insulator Transition in a Two-Band Hubbard Model

Abstract

The Mott metal-insulator transition in the two-band Hubbard model in infinite dimensions is studied by using the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The discontinuity in the chemical potential for the change from hole to electron doping is calculated analytically as a function of the on-site Coulomb interaction $U$ at the $d$-orbital and the charge-transfer energy $Δ$ between the $d$- and $p$-orbitals. Critical behaviour of the quasiparticle weight is also obtained analytically as a function of $U$ and $Δ$. The analytic results are in good agreement with the numerical results of the exact diagonalization method.

The Mott metal-insulator transition in the two-band Hubbard model in infinite dimensions is studied by using the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The discontinuity in the chemical potential for the change from hole to electron doping is calculated analytically as a function of the on-site Coulomb interaction $U$, and the charge-transfer energy $Δ$ between the $d$- and $p$-orbitals, transfer integrals $t_{pd}$, $t_{pp}$, $t_{dd}$ between $p$-$d$, $p$-$p$ and $d$-$d$ sites respectively. The critical behaviour of the quasiparticle weight is also obtained analytically.

Magnetism and Superconductivity in a Two-band Hubbard Model in Infinite Dimensions

Yoshiaki Ōno, Kazuhiro Sano

We study a two-band Hubbard model using the dynamical mean-field theory combined with the exact diagonalization method. At the electron density $n=2$, a transition from a band-insulator to a correlated semimetal occurs when the on-site Coulomb interaction $U$ is varied for a fixed value of the charge-transfer energy $Δ$. At low temperature, the correlated semimetal shows ferromagnetism or superconductivity. With increasing doping $|n-2|$, the ferromagnetic transition temperature rapidly decreases and finally becomes zero at a critical value of $n$. The second-order phase transition occurs at high temperature, while a phase separation of ferromagnetic and paramagnetic states takes place at low temperature. The superconducting transition temperature gradually decreases and finally becomes zero near $n=1$ ($n=3$) where the system is Mott insulator which shows antiferromagnetism at low temperature.

Assessing the orbital selective Mott transition with variational wave functions

We study the Mott metal-insulator transition in the two-band Hubbard model with different hopping amplitudes t1 and t2 for the two orbitals on the two-dimensional square lattice by using non-magnetic variational wave functions, similarly to what has been considered in the limit of infinite dimensions by dynamical mean-field theory. We work out the phase diagram at half filling (i.e. two electrons per site) as a function of R = t2/t1 and the on-site Coulomb repulsion U, for two values of the Hund's coupling J = 0 and J/U = 0.1. Our results are in good agreement with previous dynamical mean-field theory calculations, demonstrating that the non-magnetic phase diagram is only slightly modified from infinite to two spatial dimensions. Three phases are present: a metallic one, for small values of U, where both orbitals are itinerant; a Mott insulator, for large values of U, where both orbitals are localized because of the Coulomb repulsion; and the so-called orbital-selective Mott insulator (OSMI), for small values of R and intermediate Us, where one orbital is localized while the other one is still itinerant. The effect of the Hund's coupling is two-fold: on one side, it favors the full Mott phase over the OSMI; on the other side, it stabilizes the OSMI at larger values of R.

Mott transitions in correlated electron systems with orbital degrees of freedom

Yūichi Ono, Michael Potthoff, R. Bulla

Mott metal-insulator transitions in an M-fold orbitally degenerate Hubbard model are studied by means of a generalization of the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The method allows for an efficient and reliable determination of the critical interaction ${U}_{\mathrm{c}}$ for any integer filling n and different M at zero temperature. For half filling a linear dependence of ${U}_{\mathrm{c}}$ on M is found. Inclusion of the (full) Hund's rule exchange J results in a strong reduction of ${U}_{\mathrm{c}}.$ The transition turns out to change qualitatively from continuous for $J=0$ to discontinuous for any finite J. This result is confirmed using the exact-diagonalization method for $M=2.$

Mott metal-insulator transitions in an M-fold orbitally degenerate Hubbard model are studied by means of a generalization of the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The method allows for an efficient and reliable determination of the critical interaction Uc for any integer filling n and different M at zero temperature. For half-filling a linear dependence of Uc on M is found. Inclusion of the (full) Hund's rule exchange J results in a strong reduction of Uc. The transition turns out to change qualitatively from continuous for J=0 to discontinuous for any finite J. This result is confirmed using the exact-diagonalization method for M=2.

The Mott metal-insulator transition in the two-band Hubbard model in infinite dimensions is studied by using the linearized dynamical mean-field theory. The discontinuity in the chemical potential for the change from hole to electron doping is calculated analytically as a function of the on-site Coulomb interaction UUU at the ddd-orbital and the charge-transfer energy ΔΔΔ between the ddd- and ppp-orbitals. Critical behaviour of the quasiparticle weight is also obtained analytically as a function of UUU and ΔΔΔ. The analytic results are in good agreement with the numerical results of the exact diagonalization method.
