COULOMB CORRELATIONS AND INSTABILITY OF SPINLESS FERMION GAS IN 1D AND 2D

HUA CHEN, DANIEL MATTIS

Published Jul 10, 1994• 0 citations

Abstract

We study the stability of the ordinary Landau Fermi liquid phase for interacting, spinless electrons. We require causality and demand that the Pauli principle be obeyed. We find a phase diagram determined by two parameters: the particle density and the interaction strength. We find that the homogeneous, constant density Fermi liquid phase of a spinless Fermion gas is never stable in 1D, but that it may have a restricted domain of stability in 2D.

Quantum Monte Carlo calculation of the Fermi liquid parameters of the two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas

N. D. Drummond, Richard J. Needs

Fermi liquid theory is the basic paradigm within which we understand the normal behavior of interacting electron systems, but quantitative values for the parameters that occur in this theory are currently unknown in many important cases. One such case is the two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas (2D HEG), which is realized in a wide variety of semiconductor devices. We have used quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods to calculate the Landau interaction functions between pairs of quasiparticles. We use these to study the Fermi liquid parameters, finding that finite-size effects represent a serious obstacle to the direct determination of Fermi liquid parameters in QMC calculations. We have used QMC data in the literature for other properties of the 2D HEG to assemble a set of ``best available'' values for the Fermi liquid parameters.

‘Luttinger liquid theory’ of one-dimensional quantum fluids I: Properties of the Luttinger model and their extension to the general 1D interacting spinless Fermi gas

F. D. M. Haldane

The explicitly soluble Luttinger model is used as a basis for the description of the general interacting Fermi gas in one dimension, which will be called 'Luttinger liquid theory', by analogy with Fermi liquid theory. The excitation spectrum of the Luttinger model is described by density-wave, charge and current excitations; its spectral properties determine a characteristic parameter that controls the correlation function exponents. These relations are shown to survive in non-soluble generalisations of the model with a non-linear fermion dispersion. It is proposed that this low-energy structure is universal to a wide class of 1D systems with conducting or fluid properties, including spin chains.

Singular Three-Point Density Correlations in Two-Dimensional Fermi Liquids

Anonymous, C. L. Kane

We characterize a singularity in the equal-time three-point density correlations that is generic to two-dimensional interacting Fermi liquids. In momentum space where the three-point correlation is determined by two wave vectors, q_{1} and q_{2}, the singularity takes the form |q_{1}×q_{2}|. We explain how this singularity is sharply defined in a long-wavelength collinear limit. For a noninteracting Fermi gas, the coefficient of this singularity is given by the quantized Euler characteristic of the Fermi sea, and it implies a long-range real space correlation favoring collinear configurations. We show that this singularity persists in interacting Fermi liquids, and express the renormalization of the coefficient of singularity in terms of Landau parameters, for both spinless and spinful Fermi liquids. Our results offer an independent method for measuring Landau parameters. Implications for quantum gas experiments are discussed.

Liquid and Crystal Phases of Dipolar Fermions in Two Dimensions

N. Matveeva, S. Giorgini

The liquid and crystal phases of a single-component Fermi gas with dipolar interactions are investigated using quantum Monte Carlo methods in two spatial dimensions and at zero temperature. The dipoles are oriented by an external field perpendicular to the plane of motion, resulting in a purely repulsive 1/r(3) interaction. In the liquid phase we calculate the equation of state as a function of the interaction strength and other relevant properties characterizing the Fermi-liquid behavior: effective mass, discontinuity at the Fermi surface, and pair correlation function. In the high density regime we calculate the equation of state of the Wigner crystal phase and the critical density of the liquid to solid quantum phase transition. Close to the freezing density we also search for the existence of a stripe phase, but such a phase is never found to be energetically favorable.
