Non-rigid hole band in the extended t-J model

Abstract

The dispersion of one hole in an extended $t$-$J$ model with additional hopping terms to second and third nearest neighbours and a frustration term in the exchange part has been investigated. Two methods, a Green's function projection technique describing a magnetic polaron of minimal size and the exact diagonalization of a $4*4$ lattice, have been applied, showing reasonable agreement among each other. Using additional hopping integrals which are characteristic for the CuO$_2$ plane in cuprates we find in the nonfrustrated case an isotropic minimum of the dispersion at the point $(π/2,π/2)$ in $k$-space in good coincidence with recent angle-resolved photoemission results for the insulating compound Sr$_2$CuO$_2$Cl$_2$. Including frustration or finite temperature which shall simulate the effect of doping, the dispersion is drastically changed such that a flat region and an extended saddle point may be observed between $(π/2,0)$ and $(π,0)$ in agreement with experimental results for the optimally doped cuprates.

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.
