Abstract

The one-dimensional (1D) $t$-$J$ model is investigated by using a Gutzwiller-Jastrow-type variation method and the exact diagonalization of small systems. Variational expectation values are estimated by the variational Monte Carlo method with sufficient accuracy. First, we represent the diagonalization results. Physical quantities like momentum distribution and some correlation functions show some behaviors which are not expected in repulsive models, as the value of $J/t$ increases. These properties as well as energy are well understood by introducing intersite correlation factors into wave functions. The phase transition to a separated phase in large-$J/t$ region can be described by an attractive Jastrow wave function in quantitative agreement with the exact results. On the other hand, for the supersymmetric case ($J/t=2$) the original Gutzwiller wave function becomes an extremely good trial function for all the range of electron density. Here a kind of \lq\lq free electron" state is realized, particularly in the low electron density. Next, the above wave functions are compared with the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid-type wave function proposed by Hellberg and Mele. It is found that the correlation factors in short distances control bulk quantities like energy and the magnitude of correlation functions, while the long-range part of correlataion factors determines the critical behavior of correlation functions. Lastly, using these functions, charge and spin susceptibilities and magnetization curve are estimated, which agree with the exact results. It is shown that the Mott transition in 1D $t$-$J$ model is quite different from the Brinkman-Rice transition.

Spectral Representation for the Effective Macroscopic Response of a Polycrystal: Application to Third-Order Nonlinear Susceptibility

Erratum: In our paper, we show that the spectral representation for isotropic two-component composites also applies to uniaxial polycrystals. We have learned that this result was, in fact, first conjectured by G.W. Milton. While our derivation is more detailed, our result for the spectral function is the same as Milton's. We very much regret not having been aware of this work at the time of writing our paper. Original abstract: We extend the spectral theory used for the calculation of the effective linear response functions of composites to the case of a polycrystalline material with uniaxially anisotropic microscopic symmetry. As an application, we combine these results with a nonlinear decoupling approximation as modified by Ma et al., to calculate the third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility of a uniaxial polycrystal, assuming that the effective dielectric function of the polycrystal can be calculated within the effective-medium approximation.

Towards quantum well hot hole lasers

It should be possible to improve hot-hole laser performance by moving from bulk materials to a quantum well structure. The extra design parameters enable us to alter the band structure by changing the crystal orientation of the growth direction; to use the well width to shift the subband offsets, enabling the effect of the LO phonon scattering cut-off to be controlled; and to use modulation doping to ensure a high hole concentration to increase the gain without the dopants being present in the gain region. We present the first simulations of THz quantum well hot-hole lasers that can produce inversion and optical gain.
