摘要:

借助最近发展起来的费米面量子临界的维度正则化理论装置,我们研究了二维情况下从Landau费米液态到U(1)自旋费米液态的金属-绝缘体量子相变.不幸的是,我们不能在维正则化技术中从U(1)自旋液体态接近自旋液体Mott量子临界点。电荷涨落之间的自相互作用称为holon没有被屏蔽,这表明一个失控的重整化群流,解释为holon保持间隙。这使我们考虑另一个固定点,在那里自旋费米表面可以在莫特跃迁中不稳定。基于这一猜想,我们揭示了自旋液体Mott量子临界点的本质:由自旋子描述的自旋动力学发生一维降维。结果,自旋和电荷动力学的朗道阻尼消失在莫特量子临界点附近。当味数的holons是超过其临界值,一个相互作用的不动点似乎被确定为一个倒置的XY普适类,控制在维正则化技术。另一方面,波动驱动的第一阶金属-绝缘体转变的结果时,它是低于临界数。我们提出,自旋费米面的不稳定性和自旋液体Mott量子临界点附近的一维自旋动力学的出现可以通过具有$2 k_{F}$转移动量的自旋磁化率来检查,其中$k_{F}$是U(1)自旋液体状态中的费米动量:在U(1)规范涨落中,朗道阻尼的缺失导致零温下的发散行为,而在自旋费米面的存在下,朗道阻尼消失。

英文摘要:

Resorting to a recently developed theoretical device called dimensional regularization for quantum criticality with a Fermi surface, we examine a metal-insulator quantum phase transition from a Landau's Fermi-liquid state to a U(1) spin-liquid phase with a spinon Fermi surface in two dimensions. Unfortunately, we fail to approach the spin-liquid Mott quantum critical point from the U(1) spin-liquid state within the dimensional regularization technique. Self-interactions between charge fluctuations called holons are not screened, which shows a run-away renormalization group flow, interpreted as holons remain gapped. This leads us to consider another fixed point, where the spinon Fermi surface can be destabilized across the Mott transition. Based on this conjecture, we reveal the nature of the spin-liquid Mott quantum critical point: Dimensional reduction to one dimension occurs for spin dynamics described by spinons. As a result, Landau damping for both spin and charge dynamics disappear in the vicinity of the Mott quantum critical point. When the flavor number of holons is over its critical value, an interacting fixed point appears to be identified with an inverted XY universality class, controlled within the dimensional regularization technique. On the other hand, a fluctuation-driven first order metal-insulator transition results when it is below the critical number. We propose that the destabilization of a spinon Fermi surface and the emergence of one-dimensional spin dynamics near the spin-liquid Mott quantum critical point can be checked out by spin susceptibility with a $2 k_{F}$ transfer momentum, where $k_{F}$ is a Fermi momentum in the U(1) spin-liquid state: The absence of Landau damping in U(1) gauge fluctuations gives rise to a divergent behavior at zero temperature while it vanishes in the presence of a spinon Fermi surface.
