Orbital ordering in e(g) orbital systems: ground states and thermodynamics of the 120° model.
Orbital degrees of freedom shape many of the properties of a wide class of Mott insulating, transition metal oxides with partially filled 3d shells. Here we study orbital ordering transitions in systems where a single electron occupies the e(g) orbital doublet and the spatially highly anisotropic orbital interactions can be captured by an orbital-only model, often called the 120° model. Our ana...
متن کاملA ug 2 00 5 Role of Orbitals in the Physics of Correlated Electron Systems
Rich properties of systems with strongly correlated electrons, such as transition metal (TM) oxides, is largely connected with an interplay of different degrees of freedom in them: charge, spin, orbital ones as well as crystal lattice. Specific and often very important role is played by orbital degrees of freedom. They can lead to a formation of different superstructures (an or-bital ordering) ...
متن کاملMetal-Insulator and Superconductor-Insulator Transitions in Correlated Electron Systems
Quantum transitions between the Mott insulator and metals by controlling filling in two-dimensional square lattice are characterized by a large dynamical exponent z = 4 where the origin of unusual metallic properties near the Mott insulator are ascribed to the proximity of the transition. The scaling near the transition indicates the formation of flat dispersion area due to singular momentum de...
متن کاملSpin and Charge Fluctuations in Strongly Correlated Systems
Spin and charge are two fundamental degrees of freedom in strongly correlated electron systems. In this thesis we study low-energy effective theory and phase transitions of spin and charge in a variety of strongly correlated systems. First, we study effective theory of magnetic phase transition in Sp(4) spin system and iron-based superconductors. Quantum phase transitions beyond Landau paradigm...
متن کاملTheory of the orbital-selective Mott transition in ferromagnetic YTiO3 under high pressure
We explore the effect of pressure on the electronic properties of the ferromagnetic Mott-Hubbard insulator YTiO3. We show that the pressure-induced insulator-metal transition is accompanied by anisotropic structural changes driven by the competition between strongly orbital dependent one-electron hopping and strong, multiorbital electronic correlations in the real crystal structure of YTiO3.
