核级光谱的时间依赖散射方法

A time-dependent scattering approach to core-level spectroscopies

Krissia Zawadzki, Alberto Nocera, Adrian E. Feiguin

AI总结:

本文提出一种时域散射方法,通过直接求解含时薛定谔方程模拟X射线散射过程,结合时间依赖密度矩阵重整化群,无需预知本征态即可计算强关联体系的完整RIXS谱,并可推广至非平衡体系和其他光谱学。

摘要:

尽管新型光源使X射线实验能够达到前所未有的分辨率,但对散射截面的理论理解仍然不足。特别是在强关联电子体系中,数值技术相当有限,因为传统方法依赖于计算响应函数(Kramers-Heisenberg公式),该公式来自频域中对散射过程的微扰分析。这需要知道完整的本征态集合,以考虑远离平衡的所有中间过程,从而限制了其对小型可处理体系的适用性。在这项工作中,我们提出了一种替代范式,将问题重新表述到时域中,并显式求解含时薛定谔方程,不受微扰理论的限制:对实际实验中发生的散射过程进行忠实模拟,包括光子和核芯电子。我们展示了这种方法如何能够给出强相互作用多体体系的完整时间和动量分辨的共振非弹性X射线散射(RIXS)谱。我们通过将形式体系应用于Mott绝缘Hubbard链来演示该方法,使用时间依赖密度矩阵重整化群方法,该方法不需要预先知道本征态,并且可以求解具有数十个轨道的非常大的体系。这种方法无需修改即可直接应用于非平衡体系,并可推广到其他光谱学。

英文摘要:

While new light sources allow for unprecedented resolution in experiments with X-rays, a theoretical understanding of the scattering cross-section is lacking. In the particular case of strongly correlated electron systems, numerical techniques are quite limited, since conventional approaches rely on calculating a response function (Kramers-Heisenberg formula) that is obtained from a perturbative analysis of scattering processes in the frequency domain. This requires a knowledge of a full set of eigenstates in order to account for all intermediate processes away from equilibrium, limiting the applicability to small tractable systems. In this work, we present an alternative paradigm, recasting the problem in the time domain and explicitly solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation without the limitations of perturbation theory: a faithful simulation of the scattering processes taking place in actual experiments, including photons and core electrons. We show how this approach can yield the full time and momentum resolved Resonant Inelastic X-Ray Scattering (RIXS) spectrum of strongly interacting many-body systems. We demonstrate the formalism with an application to Mott insulating Hubbard chains using the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method, which does not require a priory knowledge of the eigenstates and can solve very large systems with dozens of orbitals. This approach can readily be applied to systems out of equilibrium without modification and generalized to other spectroscopies.
