متن کاملThe semiconductor-to-ferromagnetic-metal transition in FeSb2
We propose FeSb2 to be a nearly ferromagnetic small gap semiconductor, hence a direct analog of FeSi. We find that despite different compositions and crystal structures, in the local density approximation with on-site Coulomb repulsion correction (LDA+U) method magnetic and semiconducting solutions for U=2.6 eV are energetically degenerate similar to the case of FeSi. For both FeSb2 and FeSi (F...
متن کاملMetal Insulator Transition
Metal Insulator transition(MIT) is characterized by the conductivity which will be zero in the insulator phase. In this term paper, we focus on Mott insulator, and a simple theoritical way to describe this MIT is the Hubbard Model .Finally, we will look at the experiments of Mott insulator transition .
متن کاملThe insulator-metal transition in hydrogen.
I n their pioneering work over 75 years ago, Wigner and Huntington (1) predicted that solid molecular hydrogen would dissociate and become an atomic metal when pressurized to 25 GPa (25 GPa = 0.25 megabar) at a temperature T = 0 K. Subsequently, one of the great challenges of condensed matter physics in the past and present century has been to achieve metallization of hydrogen. Theory and exper...
متن کاملThe Metal–insulator Transition in One Dimension
The low–energy excited states of a system of interacting one–dimensional fermions in a conducting state are collective charge and spin density oscillations. The unusual physical properties of such a system (called “Luttinger liquid”) are characterized by the velocities uρ and uσ of the charge and spin excitations, as well as by a parameter Kρ that determines the power law behavior of correlatio...
