Mott-hubbard metal-insulator transition in paramagnetic V2O3: an LDA+DMFT(QMC) study.
نویسندگان
چکیده
The electronic properties of paramagnetic V2O3 are investigated by the computational scheme LDA+DMFT(QMC). This approach merges the local density approximation (LDA) with dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) and uses quantum Monte Carlo simulations (QMC) to solve the effective Anderson impurity model of DMFT. Starting with the crystal structure of metallic V2O3 and insulating (V0.962Cr0.038)2O3 we find a Mott-Hubbard transition at a Coulomb interaction U approximately 5 eV. The calculated spectrum is in very good agreement with experiment. Furthermore, the orbital occupation and the spin state S = 1 determined by us agree with recent polarization dependent x-ray-absorption experiments.

Strong-coupling solver for the quantum impurity model
We propose a fast impurity solver for the general quantum impurity model based on the perturbation theory around the atomic limit, which can be used in combination with the local density approximation LDA and the dynamical mean-field theory DMFT . We benchmark the solver in the two-band Hubbard model within DMFT against quantum Monte Carlo QMC and numerical renormalization-group NRG results. We...
متن کاملPressure-induced metal-insulator transition in LaMnO3 is not of Mott-Hubbard type.
Calculations employing the local density approximation combined with static and dynamical mean field theories (LDA+U and LDA+DMFT) indicate that the metal-insulator transition observed at 32 GPa in paramagnetic LaMnO3 at room temperature is not a Mott-Hubbard transition, but is caused by orbital splitting of the majority-spin eg bands. For LaMnO3 to be insulating at pressures below 32 GPa, both...

We study the Mott transition in the Hubbard Model within the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) approach. The DMFT equations are solved using the density matrix renormalization group technique. The densities of states for the half-filled and heavily doped cases are shown. The full phase diagram is also presented. r 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. PACS: 71.10.Fd; 71.27.þa; 71.30.þh
متن کاملElectronic structure of paramagnetic V2O3: Strongly correlated metallic and Mott insulating phase
The computation scheme merging the local density approximation and the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) is employed to calculate spectra both below and above the Fermi energy and spin and orbital occupations in the correlated paramagnetic metallic and Mott insulating phase of V2O3. The self-consistent DMFT equations are solved by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Room-temperature calculations ...
متن کاملLDA + DMFT implemented with the pseudopotential plane - wave approach
We present a joint implementation of dynamical-mean-field theory (DMFT) with the pseudopotential plane-wave approach, via Wannier functions, for the determination of the electronic properties of strongly correlated materials. The scheme uses, as input for the DMFT calculations, a tight-binding Hamiltonian obtained from the planewave calculations by projecting onto atomic-centered symmetry-const...
