AI中文摘要:
Peierls相变通常被视为一维(1D)材料所固有的现象。然而,轨道自由度即使在更高维度下也能诱导这种不稳定性。主要有两种机制起作用。首先,$p$和$d$轨道的各向异性形状可导致电子谱的有效“一维化”。其次,轨道自由度可通过局域或能带Jahn-Teller效应使能带相对移动,从而消除能带简并,进而影响费米面的嵌套。轨道诱导的Peierls效应最常见于过渡金属周围配体八面体共边连接的情形,而在共面连接几何中则较少见。在本综述中,我们讨论了潜在的物理机制、出现该现象的材料、高温无畸变相的特征,以及分子轨道形成等局域效应的作用。
英文摘要:
The Peierls transition is typically regarded as a phenomenon inherent to one-dimensional (1D) materials. However, orbital degrees of freedom can induce this instability even in higher dimensions. Two mechanisms are primarily responsible. First, the anisotropic shape of $p$ and $d$ orbitals can lead to effective "1D-zation" of the electronic spectrum. Second, orbital degrees of freedom can lift band degeneracy by shifting bands relative to each other via the local or band Jahn-Teller effect, thereby affecting the nesting of the Fermi surface. The orbital-induced Peierls effect is most commonly observed when ligand octahedra surrounding transition metals share edges, and less frequently in face-sharing geometries. In this review, we discuss the underlying physical mechanisms, the materials in which this phenomenon occurs, the characteristics of the high-temperature undistorted phase, and the role of local effects such as the formation of molecular orbitals.
