Exciton-exciton interaction and biexciton formation in bilayer systems
We report quantum Monte Carlo calculations of biexciton binding energies in ideal two-dimensional bilayer systems with isotropic electron and hole masses. We have also calculated exciton-exciton interaction potentials and pair-distribution functions for electrons and holes in bound biexcitons. Comparing our data with results obtained in a recent study using a model exciton-exciton potential Sch...
متن کاملEffects of strong interactions in a half-metallic magnet: A determinant quantum Monte Carlo study
Understanding the effects of electron-electron interactions in half-metallic magnets (HMs), which have band structures with one gapped spin channel and one metallic channel, poses fundamental theoretical issues as well as having importance for their potential applications. Here we use determinant quantum Monte Carlo to study the impacts of an on-site Hubbard interaction U , finite temperature, ...
متن کاملPath Integral Monte Carlo Simulations for Fermion Systems : Pairing in the Electron - Hole Plasma
We review the path integral method wherein quantum systems are mapped with Feynman's path integrals onto a classical system of " ring-polymers " and then simulated with the Monte Carlo technique. Bose or Fermi statistics correspond to possible " cross-linking " of polymers. As proposed by Feynman, superfluidity and Bose condensation result from macroscopic exchange of bosons. To map fermions on...
متن کاملProbing quantum coherent states in bilayer graphene
An active area of post-CMOS device research is to study the possibility of realizing and exploiting exotic quantum states in nanostructures. In this paper we consider one such system, two layers of graphene separated by an oxide insulator. This system has been predicted to have an excitonic condensate that survives above room temperature. We describe a computational technique—path integral quan...
متن کاملEntanglement properties of the antiferromagnetic-singlet transition in the Hubbard model on bilayer square lattices
We calculate the bipartite Rényi entanglement entropy of an L× L× 2 bilayer Hubbard model using a determinantal quantum Monte Carlo method recently proposed by Grover [Phys. Rev. Lett. 111, 130402 (2013)]. Two types of bipartition are studied: (i) one that divides the lattice into two L× L planes and (ii) one that divides the lattice into two equal-size (L× L/2 × 2) bilayers. We compare our cal...
