Inelastic x-ray scattering in correlated Mott insulators.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We calculate the inelastic light scattering from x rays, which allows the photon to transfer both energy and momentum to the strongly correlated charge excitations. We find that the charge-transfer peak and the low-energy peak both broaden and disperse through the Brillouin zone similar to what is seen in experiments in materials such as Ca2CuO2Cl2.

متن کاملA Mott insulator continuously connected to iron pnictide superconductors
Iron-based superconductivity develops near an antiferromagnetic order and out of a bad-metal normal state, which has been interpreted as originating from a proximate Mott transition. Whether an actual Mott insulator can be realized in the phase diagram of the iron pnictides remains an open question. Here we use transport, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray absorption spectroscopy, resonant...
متن کاملNonresonant inelastic light scattering in the Hubbard model
Inelastic light scattering from electrons is a symmetry-selective probe of the charge dynamics within correlated materials. Many measurements have been made on correlated insulators, and recent exact solutions in large dimensions explain a number of anomalous features found in experiments. Here we focus on the correlated metal, as described by the Hubbard model away from half filling. We can de...
متن کاملElectron-lattice interactions strongly renormalize the charge-transfer energy in the spin-chain cuprate Li2CuO2.
Strongly correlated insulators are broadly divided into two classes: Mott-Hubbard insulators, where the insulating gap is driven by the Coulomb repulsion U on the transition-metal cation, and charge-transfer insulators, where the gap is driven by the charge-transfer energy Δ between the cation and the ligand anions. The relative magnitudes of U and Δ determine which class a material belongs to,...
متن کاملMott gap excitations and resonant inelastic x-ray scattering in doped cuprates.
Predictions are made for the momentum- and carrier-dependent degradation of the Mott gap upon doping in high-T(c) cuprates as would be observed in Cu K-edge resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS). The two-dimensional Hubbard model with second- and third-nearest-neighbor hopping terms has been studied by numerical exact diagonalization. Special emphasis is placed on the particle-hole asymmet...
