原子价涨落量子临界性的鲁棒性

Robustness of Quantum Criticality of Valence Fluctuations

Shinji Watanabe, Kazumasa Miyake

摘要:

从理论上分析了Yb基和Ce基重电子系统在压力下出现鲁棒量子临界的机制。通过对Yb_(15)Al_(34)Au_(51)准晶及其近似体建立极小模型,我们发现Yb的一级价态跃迁的量子临界点出现在基态相图中,它们的临界区重叠统一,产生一个宽的量子临界区。这很好地解释了在Yb 15 Al 34 Au51中观察到的强非常规临界性。我们还讨论了更广泛的适用性,这种机制的其他Yb和Ce为基础的系统,如β-YbAlB 4显示非常规的量子临界。

英文摘要:

The mechanism of emergence of robust quantum criticality in Yb- and Ce-based heavy electron systems under pressure is analyzed theoretically. By constructing a minimal model for quasicrystal Yb15Al34Au51 and its approximant, we show that quantum critical points of the first-order valence transition of Yb appear in the ground-state phase diagram with their critical regimes being overlapped to be unified, giving rise to a wide quantum critical regime. This well explains the robust unconventional criticality observed in Yb15Al34Au51 under pressure. We also discuss broader applicability of this mechanism to other Yb- and Ce-based systems such as beta-YbAlB4 showing unconventional quantum criticality.
