  • Symmetry, topology, duality, chirality, and criticality in a spin-1/2 XXZ ladder with a four-spin interaction

    Matéo Fontaine, Koudai Sugimoto, Shunsuke Furukawa

    Physical Review B (American Physical Society (APS))  109 ( 13 )  2024.04

    Accepted,  ISSN  24699950

    　View Summary

    We study the ground-state phase diagram of a spin-12 XXZ model with a chirality-chirality interaction (CCI) on a two-leg ladder. This model offers a minimal setup to study an interplay between spin and chirality degrees of freedom. The spin-chirality duality transformation allows us to relate the regimes of weak and strong CCIs. By applying the Abelian bosonization and the duality, we obtain a rich phase diagram that contains distinct gapped featureless and ordered phases. In particular, Néel and vector chiral orders appear for easy-axis anisotropy, while two distinct symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases appear for easy-plane anisotropy. The two SPT phases can be viewed as twisted variants of the Haldane phase. We also present an effective description in terms of (spinor) hard-core bosons, which reveals critical behavior on the self-dual line in the easy-axis and easy-plane regimes. We perform numerical simulations to confirm the predicted phase structure and critical properties. We further demonstrate that the two SPT phases and a trivial phase are distinguished by topological indices in the presence of certain symmetries. A similar phase structure is expected in a spin-12 XXZ ladder with four-spin ring exchange.

  • Pump-probe spectroscopy of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half filling

    Koudai Sugimoto, Satoshi Ejima

    Physical Review B (American Physical Society (APS))  108 ( 19 )  2023.11

    Lead author, Corresponding author, Accepted,  ISSN  24699950

    　View Summary

    By utilizing time-dependent tensor-network algorithms in the infinite matrix-product-state representation, we theoretically investigate the pump-probe spectroscopy of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half filling. Our focus lies on nonequilibrium optical conductivity and single-particle excitation spectra. In the spin-density-wave (SDW) phase, we identify an in-gap state in the nonequilibrium optical conductivity due to the formation of excitons (or doublon-holon pairs), generated by the pulse through nonlocal interactions. In the strong-coupling regime, we discern additional multiple in-gap and out-of-gap states. In the charge-density-wave (CDW) phase, we detect not only an in-gap state but also a finite Drude weight, which results from the dissolution of charge order by photoexcitation. Analyzing time-dependent single-particle excitation spectra directly in the thermodynamic limit confirms the origin of these new states in the SDW and CDW phases as the excitation of newly emerged dispersions. We illustrate that the pump-probe spectroscopy simulations in the thermodynamic limit furnish unambiguous spectral structures that allow for direct comparison with experimental results, and the integration of nonequilibrium optical conductivity and time- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy provides comprehensive insights into nonequilibrium states.

  • Zigzag chain order of LiVSe<sub>2</sub> developing away from the vanadium trimer phase transition boundary

    K. Kojima, N. Katayama, K. Sugimoto, N. Hirao, Y. Ohta, H. Sawa

    Physical Review B (American Physical Society (APS))  108 ( 9 )  2023.09

    Accepted,  ISSN  24699950

    　View Summary

    The phenomenon of self-assembly of constituent elements to form molecules at low temperatures appears ubiquitously in transition metal compounds with orbital degrees of freedom. Recent progress in local structure studies using synchrotron radiation x rays is shifting the interest in structural studies in such molecule-forming systems from the low-temperature ordered phase to the short-range order that appears like a precursor at high temperatures. In this study, we discuss both experimentally and theoretically the relationship between the trimer structure that appears in the layered LiVX2(X = O, S, Se) system with a two-dimensional triangular lattice of vanadium and the zigzag chainlike local structure that appears near the phase transition boundary where molecular formation occurs. The vanadium trimerization that persistently appears in both low-temperature phases of LiVO2 and LiVS2 disappears in LiVSe2, and a regular triangular lattice is thought to be realized in LiVSe2, but this study reveals that the zigzag chain local distortion appears with a finite correlation length. These zigzag chain state local distortions are similar to the motif of local distortions in the high-temperature phase of LiVS2, indicating that the local distortions are persistent away from the trimer phase transition boundary. On the other hand, it is concluded that the zigzag chain order appearing in LiVSe2 is more stable than that in LiVS2 in terms of the temperature variation of atomic displacement and correlation length. The zigzag chain order is considered to be competitive with the trimer order appearing in the LiVX2 system. In this paper, we discuss the similarities and differences between the parameters that stabilize these electronic phases and the local distortions that appear in other molecular formation systems.

  • Wannier-Stark ladders and Stark shifts of excitons in Mott insulators

    Mina Udono, Tatsuya Kaneko, Koudai Sugimoto

    Physical Review B (American Physical Society (APS))  108 ( 8 )  2023.08

    Last author, Corresponding author, Accepted,  ISSN  24699950

    　View Summary

    External-field driven energy-level discretization, such as Landau quantization or Stark localization, is one of the most intriguing phenomena in quantum systems. We investigate the emergence of the Wannier-Stark ladder coming from the particle-hole continuum and the Stark shifts of the exciton levels in one-dimensional Mott insulators under the dc electric field. The discretized peak structure in the optical-conductivity spectra newly appears by applying the dc electric field, and the positions of these peaks can be reproduced from the energy levels of a simple effective model in the strong-coupling regime. Our results not only suggest that Mott insulators can serve as a viable platform for Stark discretization, but also pave the way for investigations of dynamical properties in correlated many-body systems under a dc electric field.

  • Collective mode excitations and simulated <i>L</i>-edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering spectra in antiferromagnetic Ca<sub>2</sub>RuO<sub>4</sub>

    Shunsuke Yamamoto, Yukinori Ohta, Koudai Sugimoto

    Physical Review B (American Physical Society (APS))  106 ( 4 )  2022.07

    Last author, Accepted,  ISSN  24699950

    　View Summary

    Using the three-orbital Hubbard model, we investigate the low-energy excitation spectra in the antiferromagnetic phase of Ca2RuO4. We calculate the dynamical susceptibilities in the low-energy region by the random phase approximation and find that the anisotropic dispersion of the transverse mode is in good agreement with the spectra recently reported by inelastic neutron scattering experiments. By the fast-collision approximation, we simulate the resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) spectra of the Ru L3 edge from the dynamical susceptibilities. We show that the dispersion of the transverse mode is clearly observed in the calculated RIXS spectra and that the polarization dependence of the incident x rays enables one to distinguish between the excitations of the in-plane transverse mode and out-of-plane transverse mode.

    銅酸化物高温超伝導体はその発見以来、母物質である反強磁性モット絶縁体にキャリアを注入することにより超伝導が発現すると考えられてきた。しかし、近年Nd2CuO4構造いわゆるT’構造をもつ電子ドープ型高温超伝導体において、過剰酸素を取除くことにより、電子をドープしなくても超伝導が発現する可能性が示された。しかし、一方で実験的に示されてきたこのノンドープ超伝導は、実は酸素がCuO2面から取り除かれ電子ドープが起こっており、その超伝導は従来通りのドープされたモット絶縁体としての高温超伝導であるとも、最近の研究では指摘されている。また、これまでにT'型の銅酸化物高温超伝導体においても擬ギャップ現象が本質的に存在することが明らかになってきており、この擬ギャップの起源を探ることが本研究課題の重要な目標である。さらに、擬ギャップ現象と関連して強相関電子系における量子臨界現象と磁性について研究することも重要であり、本年度は周辺物質に関しても研究を行なった。
    銅酸化物に関しては、T’-LE(S,C)COに注目し、系統的に63,65Cu核、139La核のNMR測定を行ない、超伝導対称性および反強磁性ゆらぎの有無・強さを明らかにした。また、重い電子系超伝導体Ce3PtIn11の二段磁気転移におけるq構造をtransferred hyperfine fieldを用いることにより、明らかにした。さらに、単体金属であるalpha-Mnの圧力誘起磁気秩序相における磁気構造についてゼロ磁場NMRの周波数の圧力依存から論じ、フェリ磁性的なモデルが他の実験結果と矛盾しないことを示した。

    　View Summary

    The phase in which excitons spontaneously form in a semimetal or semiconductor and subsequently undergo Bose condensation is referred to as an excitonic phase. In recent years, some potential materials have been proposed, and the study of excitonic phases has revealed novel perspectives. In this research, I conducted both theoretical and numerical analyses of finite-temperature states and photo-induced nonequilibrium states in strongly correlated electron systems, with particular attention to the physical properties of excitonic phases.
    For the finite-temperature calculations, we expanded the variational cluster approach to include finite temperatures and applied the cluster mean-field approximation to the excitonic phase. In the examination of nonequilibrium states, we proposed light-induced phase transitions within the attractive and repulsive Hubbard models, and elucidated the effect of excitons on higher-harmonic generations in the extended Hubbard model.

    　View Summary

    An excitonic insulator is a system where electrons and holes spontaneously form pairs (excitons) in a semiconductor or a semimetal and the pairs go into quantum condensation. We have focused on transition-metal chalcogenide Ta2NiSe5 known as a candidate material of an excitonic insulator, and have clarified the behaviors of the microscopic quantum interferences in the ultrasonic attenuation rate and the NMR relaxation rate, the diamagnetic susceptibility, and the optical conductivity from the perspective of the excitonic condensation in it. We have also shown that in cobalt oxide Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 the magnetic-multipole order emerges in the excitonic phase, and have studied its low-energy excaitation spectra.
