摘要:

在半填充三角格子哈伯德模型的中间相互作用区域中,自旋挫挫和电荷涨落的相互作用产生了一种奇异的量子态,而这种态的性质还存在争议.利用SU(2)$_{\rm{spin}} \otimes $ U(1)$_{\rm{charge}}$对称性实现的密度矩阵重整化群,研究了定义在直到圆周$W=6$的长圆柱几何上的三角格子哈伯德模型.一个带隙的量子自旋液体,与现场相互作用$9 \lesssim U / t \lesssim 10.75$,被确定之间的金属和反铁磁Mott绝缘相。特别是,我们发现,这种自旋液体开发了一个强大的远程自旋标量手征相关的系统长度$L$的增加,这毫不含糊地揭示了自发的时间反演对称性破缺。此外,纠缠谱的简并性支持了基态的对称性分数化和自旋边缘模。本文还讨论了这种中间自旋液体中手征序的可能起源及其与类旋光激发的关系。

英文摘要:

The interplay between spin frustration and charge fluctuation gives rise to an exotic quantum state in the intermediate-interaction regime of the half-filled triangular-lattice Hubbard model, while the nature of the state is under debate. Using the density matrix renormalization group with SU(2)$_{\rm{spin}} \otimes $U(1)$_{\rm{charge}}$ symmetries implemented, we study the triangular-lattice Hubbard model defined on the long cylinder geometry up to circumference $W=6$. A gapped quantum spin liquid, with on-site interaction $9 \lesssim U / t \lesssim 10.75$, is identified between the metallic and the antiferromagnetic Mott insulating phases. In particular, we find that this spin liquid develops a robust long-range spin scalar-chiral correlation as the system length $L$ increases, which unambiguously unveils the spontaneous time-reversal symmetry breaking. In addition, the degeneracy of the entanglement spectrum supports symmetry fractionalization and spinon edge modes in the obtained ground state. The possible origin of chiral order in this intermediate spin liquid and its relation to the rotonlike excitations have also been discussed.
