Emergence of Dirac Electron Pair in Charge Ordered State of Organic Conductor $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$

We re-examine the band structure of the stripe charge ordered state of $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ under pressure by using an extended Hubbard model within the Hartree mean-field theory. By increasing pressure, we find a topological transition from a conventional insulator with a single-minimum in the dispersion relation at the M-point in the Brillouin zone, towards a new phase which exhibits a double-minimum. This transition is characterized by the appearance of a pair of Dirac electrons with a finite mass. Using the Luttinger-Kohn representation at the M-point, it is shown that such a variation of the band structure can be described by an effective $2 \times 2$ low energy Hamiltonian with a single driving parameter. The topological nature of this transition is confirmed by the calculation of the Berry curvature which vanishes in the conventional phase and has a double peak structure with opposite signs in the new phase. We compare the structure of this transition with a simpler situation which occurs in two-component systems, like boron-nitride.

Competition of superfluidity and density waves in one-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixtures

We study a mixture of one-dimensional bosons and spinless fermions at incommensurate filling using phenomenological bosonization and Green's functions techniques. We derive the relation between the parameters of the microscopic Hamiltonian and macroscopic observables. Galilean invariance results in extra constraints for the current current interactions. We obtain the exact exponents for the various response functions, and show that superfluid fluctuations are enhanced by the effective boson-fermion density-density interaction and suppressed by the effective boson-fermion current-current interaction. In the case of a bosonized model with purely density-density interaction, when the effective boson-fermion density-density interaction is weak enough, the superfluid exponent of the bosons has a non-monotonous variation with the ratio of the fermion velocity to the boson velocity. By contrast, density-wave exponent and the exponent for fermionic superfluidity are monotonous functions of the velocity ratio.

Peierls ground state and excitations in the electron-lattice correlated system (EDO-TTF)_{2}X

We investigate the exotic Peierls state in the one-dimensional organic compound (EDO-TTF)_{2}X, wherein the Peierls transition is accompanied by the bending of molecules and also by a fourfold periodic array of charge disproportionation along the one-dimensional chain. Such a Peierls state, wherein the interplay between the electron correlation and the electron-phonon interaction takes an important role, is examined based on an extended Peierls-Holstein-Hubbard model that includes the alternation of the elastic energies for both the lattice distortion and the molecular deformation. The model reproduces the experimentally observed pattern of the charge disproportionation and there exists a metastable state wherein the energy takes a local minimum with respect to the lattice distortion and/or molecular deformation. Furthermore, we investigate the excited states for both the Peierls ground state and the metastable state by considering the soliton formation of electrons. It is shown that the soliton excitation from the metastable state costs energy that is much smaller than that of the Peierls state, where the former is followed only by the charge degree of freedom and the latter is followed by that of spin and charge. Based on these results, we discuss the exotic photoinduced phase found in (EDO-TTF)_{2}PF_{6}.

Possible Metastable State Triggered by Competition of Peierls State and Charge Ordered State

We examine a Peierls ground state and its competing metastable state in the one-dimensional quarter-filled Peierls-Hubbard model with the nearest-neighbor repulsive interaction V and the electron-phonon interaction (\propto 1/K with K being the elastic constant). From the mean-field approach, we obtain the phase diagram for the ground state on the plane of parameters V and K. The coexistent state of the spin-density wave and the charge ordering is realized for large V and K. With decreasing K, it exhibits a first-order phase transition to the unconventional Peierls state which is described by the bond-centered charge-density-wave state. In the large region of the Peierls ground state in the phase diagram, there exists the metastable state where the energy takes a local minimum with respect to the lattice distortion. On the basis of the present calculation, we discuss the photoinduced phase observed in the (EDO-TTF)_{2}PF_{6} compound.

Interchain-Frustration-Induced Metallic State in Quasi-One-Dimensional Mott Insulators

The mechanism that drives a metal-insulator transition in an undoped quasi-one-dimensional Mott insulator is examined in the framework of the Hubbard model with two different hoppings t_{perp 1} and t_{perp 2} between nearest-neighbor chains. By applying an N_{perp}-chain renormalization group method at the two-loop level, we show how a metallic state emerges when both t_{perp 1} and t_{perp 2} exceed critical values. In the metallic phase, the quasiparticle weight becomes finite and develops a strong momentum dependence. We discuss the temperature dependence of the resistivity and the impact of our theory in the understanding of recent experiments on half-filled molecular conductors.

Magnetic response and quantum critical behavior in the doped two-leg extended Hubbard ladder

We have investigated quantum critical behavior in the doped two-leg extended Hubbard ladder, by using a weak-coupling bosonization method. In the ground state, the dominant fluctuation changes from the conventional d-wave-like superconducting (SCd) state into density-wave states, with increasing nearest-neighbor repulsions and/or decreasing doping rate. The competition between the SCd state and the charge-density-wave state coexisting with the p-density-wave state becomes noticeable on the critical point, at which the gap for magnetic excitations vanishes. Based on the Majorana-fermion description of the effective theory, we calculate the temperature dependence of the magnetic response such as the spin susceptibility and the NMR relaxation rate, which exhibit unusual properties due to two kinds of spin excitation modes. On the quantum critical point, the spin susceptibility shows paramagnetic behavior with logarithmic corrections and the NMR relaxation rate also exhibits anomalous power-law behavior. We discuss the commensurability effect due to the umklapp scattering and relevance to the two-leg ladder compounds Sr_{14-x}Ca_xCu_{24}O_{41}.

Superconductivity and Density Wave in the Quasi-One-Dimensional Systems: Renormalization Group Study

The anisotropic superconductivity and the density wave have been investigated by applying the Kadanoff-Wilson renormalization group technique to the quasi-one-dimensional system with finite-range interactions. It is found that a temperature (T) dependence of response functions is proportional to exp(1/T) in a wide region of temperature even within the one-loop approximation. Transition temperatures are calculated to obtain the phase diagram of the quasi-one-dimensional system, which is compared with that of the pure-one-dimensional system. Next-nearest neighbor interactions (V_2) induce large charge fluctuations, which suppress the d_{x^2 -y^2}-wave singlet superconducting (dSS) state and enhance the f-wave triplet superconducting (fTS) state. From this effect, the transition temperature of fTS becomes comparable to that of dSS for large V_2, so that field-induced f-wave triplet pairing could be possible. These features are discussed to comprehend the experiments on the (TMTSF)_2PF_6 salt.

Charge-Density-Wave Formation in the Doped Two-Leg Extended Hubbard Ladder

We investigate electronic properties of the doped two-leg Hubbard ladder with both the onsite and the nearest-neighbor Coulomb repulsions, by using the the weak-coupling renormalization-group method. It is shown that, for strong nearest-neighbor repulsions, the charge-density-wave state coexisting with the p-density-wave state becomes dominant fluctuation where spins form intrachain singlets. By increasing doping rate, we have also shown that the effects of the nearest-neighbor repulsions are reduced and the system exhibits a quantum phase transition into the d-wave-like (or rung-singlet) superconducting state. We derive the effective fermion theory which describes the critical properties of the transition point with the gapless excitation of magnon. The phase diagram of the two-leg ladder compound, Sr_{14-x}Ca_xCu_{24}O_{41}, is discussed.

Effects of Charge Ordering on Spin-Wave of Quarter-Filled Spin-Density-Wave States

Spin-wave excitations of quarter-filled spin-density-wave state, which coexists with charge ordering, have been studied for one-dimensional extended Hubbard model with the nearest-neighbor repulsive interaction (V) and next-nearest-neighbor one (V_2). We calculate dispersion relations for the acoustic and optical spin-wave within the random phase approximation. Our numerical calculation shows that energy spectrum of the acoustic branch is well described by a simple sine function form. In the states coexisting with charge-density-wave, the spin-wave velocity decreases with increasing V or V_2. Our numerical result, that velocity reduces to zero in the limit of large V or V_2, is analyzed in terms of a spin 1/2 Heisenberg model with effective antiferromagnetic exchange interaction.

Effect of nearest- and next-nearest neighbor interactions on the spin-wave velocity of one-dimensional quarter-filled spin-density-wave conductors

We study spin fluctuations in quarter-filled one-dimensional spin-density-wave systems in presence of short-range Coulomb interactions. By applying a path integral method, the spin-wave velocity is calculated as a function of on-site (U), nearest (V) and next-nearest (V_2) neighbor-site interactions. With increasing V or V_2, the pure spin-density-wave state evolves into a state with coexisting spin- and charge-density waves. The spin-wave velocity is reduced when several density waves coexist in the ground state, and may even vanish at large V. The effect of dimerization along the chain is also considered.

Competition of disorder and interchain hopping in a two-chain Hubbard model

We study the interplay of Anderson localization and interaction in a two chain Hubbard ladder allowing for arbitrary ratio of disorder strength to interchain coupling. We obtain three different types of spin gapped localized phases depending on the strength of disorder: a pinned $4k_F$ Charge Density Wave (CDW) for weak disorder, a pinned $2k_F$ CDW$^π$ for intermediate disorder and two independently pinned single chain $2k_F$ CDW for strong disorder. Confinement of electrons can be obtained as a result of strong disorder or strong attraction. We give the full phase diagram as a function of disorder, interaction strength and interchain hopping. We also study the influence of interchain hopping on localization length and show that localization is enhanced by a small interchain hopping but suppressed by a large interchain hopping.

Commensurate-incommensurate transition in two-coupled chains of nearly half-filled electrons

We investigate the physical properties of two coupled chains of electrons, with a nearly half-filled band, as a function of the interchain hopping t_\perp and the doping. We show that upon doping, the system undergoes a metal-insulator transition well described by a commensurate-incommensurate transition. By using bosonization and renormalization we determine the full phase diagram of the system, and the physical quantities such as the charge gap. In the commensurate phase two different regions, for which the interchain hopping is relevant and irrelevant exist, leading to a confinement-deconfinement crossover in this phase. A minimum of the charge gap is observed for values of t_\perp close to this crossover. At large t_\perp the region of the commensurate phase is enhanced, compared to a single chain. At the metal-insulator transition the Luttinger parameter takes the universal value K_ρ^*=1, in agreement with previous results on special limits of this model.

Effects of Next-Nearest-Neighbor Repulsion on One-Dimensional Quarter-Filled Electron Systems

We examine effects of the next-nearest-neighbor repulsion on electronic states of a one-dimensional interacting electron system which consists of quarter-filled band and interactions of on-site and nearest-neighbor repulsion. We derive the effective Hamiltonian for the electrons around wave number $\pm \kf$ ($\kf$: Fermi wave number) and apply the renormalization group method to the bosonized Hamiltonian. It is shown that the next-nearest-neighbor repulsion makes $4\kf$-charge ordering unstable and suppresses the spin fluctuation. Further the excitation gaps and spin susceptibility are also evaluated.

Spinless fermions ladders at half filling

We study a half filled ladder of spinless fermions. We show that contrarily to a single chain, the ladder becomes a Mott insulator for arbitrarily small repulsive interactions. We obtain the full phase diagram and physical quantities such as the charge gap. We show that there is only a single insulating phase for repulsive interactions, regardless of the stength of the interchain hopping and single chain Mott gap. There is thus no confinement-deconfinement transition in this system but a simple crossover. We show that upon doping the system becomes a Luttinger liquid with a universal parameter $K=1/2$ different from the one of the single chain ($K=1/4$).

Role of interchain hopping in two disordered chains of spinless fermions

The effect of interchain hopping and interaction on Anderson localization has been investigated for two coupled chains of spinless fermions with nearest neighbor interaction. Using the renormalization group method, we find that interchain hopping plays a significant role when the correlation gap induced by the interplay of interchain hopping and intrachain interaction becomes larger than the Anderson localization energy scale induced by impurities. The strong competition between localization and delocalization is examined for attractive interaction.

Mechanism of confinement in low-dimensional organic conductors

Confinement-deconfinement transition in quarter-filled two-coupled chains comprising dimerization, repulsive interactions and interchain hopping has been demonstrated by applying the renormalization group method to the bosonized Hamiltonian. The confinement given by the irrelevant interchain hopping occurs with increasing umklapp scattering which is induced by the dimerization leading to effectively half-filling. It is shown that the transition originates in a competition between a charge gap and the renormalized interchain hopping.

Electronic states in correlated three-coupled chains

Three-coupled chains of quarter-filled Hubbard model with dimerization have been studied for periodic boundary conditions. By use of a renormalization group method, it is found that the interchain hopping is renormalized to zero leading to confinement when charge gap becomes larger than the effective interchain hopping energy. Such a result of confinement is compared with that of two-coupled chains.

Confinement-deconfinement transition in two-coupled chains with umklapp scattering

A role of umklapp scattering has been examined for two-coupled chains with both forward and backward scatterings by applying renormalization group method to bosonized Hamiltonian. It has been found that a state with relevant interchain hopping changes into a state with irrelevant (confined) one when the magnitude of umklapp scattering becomes larger than that of interchain hopping. Critical value of umklapp scattering for such a confinement-deconfinement transition is calculated as the function of interchain hopping and intrachain interactions. A crossover from one-dimensional regime into that of coupled chains is also shown with decreasing temperature.
