Mott transition between a spin-liquid insulator and a metal in three dimensions.

We study a bandwidth controlled Mott metal-insulator transition (MIT) from a Fermi-liquid metal to a quantum spin-liquid insulator in three dimensions. Using a slave rotor approach including gauge fluctuations, we obtain a continuous MIT and discuss finite temperature crossovers in its vicinity. We show that the specific heat C approximately Tlnln(1/T) at the MIT and that the metallic state nea...

Slow dynamics of electrons at a metal–Mott insulator boundary in an organic system with disorder

The Mott transition-a metal-insulator transition caused by repulsive Coulomb interactions between electrons-is a central issue in condensed matter physics because it is the mother earth of various attractive phenomena. Outstanding examples are high-Tc (critical temperature) cuprates and manganites exhibiting colossal magnetoresistance. Furthermore, spin liquid states, which are quantum-fluctuat...

Spin liquid states in the vicinity of a metal-insulator transition

We study in this paper quantum spin liquid states (QSLs) at the vicinity of the metal-insulator transition. Assuming that the low-energy excitations in the QSLs are labeled by “spinon” occupation numbers with the same Fermi surface structure as in the corresponding metal (Fermi-liquid) side, we propose a phenomenological Landau-like low-energy theory for the QSLs and show that the usual U (1) Q...
