FeO中费米面嵌套和轨道有序化的可能性

Fermi surface nesting and possibility of orbital ordering in FeO

M. Alaei, S. A. Jafari

摘要:

我们在GGA和GGA+U近似下研究了莫特绝缘体FeO。在GGA中,我们发现了一个多带金属态,在费米面的两个$t_{2g}$带之间具有显著的带间嵌套,这表明可能不稳定的轨道有序绝缘相。这种对称性破缺态虽然具有比下面的均匀金属态低的能量,但是带隙的大小小于实验观察到的光学带隙。因此,我们纳入轨道有序态的在位库仑排斥U的计算值。我们发现对称性破缺和库仑关联共同作用使系统稳定,并给出了一个绝缘的轨道有序态,其能隙大小与实验值非常接近。我们提出这种方法作为一种可能的指示LDA和GGA计算中的轨道排序。我们用已知的LiVO $_2$和LaMnO $_3$的例子来检验我们的方法。

英文摘要:

We study FeO, a Mott insulator in GGA and GGA+U approximations. In the GGA we find a multi-band metallic state with remarkable inter-band nesting between two $t_{2g}$ bands of Fermi surface, which signals possible instability towards an orbital ordered insulating phase. Such broken symmetry state, although has lower energy than the underlying homogeneous metallic state, but the gap magnitude is less than the experimentally observed optical gap. Therefore we incorporate the calculated value of on-site Coulomb repulsion U on orbital ordered state. We find that symmetry breaking and Coulomb correlations cooperate together to stabilize the system and give an insulating orbital ordered state, with the gap magnitude very close to the experimental value. We propose this method as a possible indication of orbital ordering in LDA and GGA calculations. We check our method with known examples of LiVO$_2$ and LaMnO$_3$.
