双层离子哈伯德模型中相互作用驱动的能带-绝缘体-金属跃迁

Interaction-driven Band-insulator--to--Metal transition in bilayer ionic Hubbard model

Mi Jiang, T. C. S. Schulthess

摘要:

在离子哈伯德模型(IHM)中,对于中等相互作用的$U$,已经报道了相互作用驱动的绝缘体-金属相变,而其金属相在相图中只占据一个狭窄的区域。为了探索金属制度的扩大,我们扩展了离子哈伯德模型的两个耦合层和研究层间杂化$V$和两种类型的层内交错电位$Δ$的相互作用:一个具有相同的(同相)和其他层之间的$π$ -相移(反相)电位。我们的行列式量子蒙特卡罗(DQMC)模拟在最低的可访问的温度表明,Mott和带绝缘体之间的相互作用驱动的金属相扩展的$Δ-V$相图的双层IHM只有同相离子电位,而反相电位总是诱导的电荷密度顺序的绝缘体。这意味着离子哈伯德模型可能从这里的双层的情况下进一步扩展到现实的三维模型。

英文摘要:

The interaction-driven insulator-to-metal transition has been reported in the ionic Hubbard model (IHM) for moderate interaction $U$, while its metallic phase only occupies a narrow region in the phase diagram. To explore the enlargement of the metallic regime, we extend the ionic Hubbard model to two coupled layers and study the interplay of interlayer hybridization $V$ and two types of intralayer staggered potentials $Δ$: one with the same (in-phase) and the other with a $π$-phase shift (anti-phase) potential between layers. Our determinant Quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulations at lowest accessible temperatures demonstrate that the interaction-driven metallic phase between Mott and band insulators expands in the $Δ-V$ phase diagram of bilayer IHM only for in-phase ionic potentials; while anti-phase potential always induces an insulator with charge density order. This implies possible further extension of the ionic Hubbard model from the bilayer case here to realistic three-dimensional model.
