Doping variation of orbitally induced anisotropy in the electronic structure of La1-xSrxVO3

The variation of anisotropic charge dynamics in the course of a filling-control insulator-metal transition (IMT) in La(1-x)Sr(x)VO3 has been investigated by measurements of optical conductivity spectra with the focus on the role of the t(2g)-orbital degree of freedom. The orbitally induced anisotropic feature of the Mott-gap excitation as well as of the doping-induced midinfrared excitation is suppressed with increasing x, and instead the isotropic and incoherent dynamics of the doped hole dominates over the low-energy excitation near and above the IMT point.

Pressure-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 on-site Coulomb repulsion and Jahn-Teller distortion are needed.     

Photoemission of a doped Mott insulator: spectral weight transfer and a qualitative Mott-Hubbard description

The spectral weight evolution of the low-dimensional Mott insulator TiOCl upon alkali-metal dosing has been studied by photoelectron spectroscopy. We observe a spectral weight transfer between the lower Hubbard band and an additional peak upon electron doping, in line with quantitative expectations in the atomic limit for changing the number of singly and doubly occupied sites. This observation is an unconditional hallmark of correlated bands and has not been reported before. In contrast, the absence of a metallic quasiparticle peak can be traced back to a simple one-particle effect.     

Mott-Hubbard transition in the mass-imbalanced Hubbard model

The mass-imbalanced Hubbard model represents a continuous evolution from the Hubbard to the Falicov-Kimball model. We employ dynamical mean field theory and study the paramagnetic metal-insulator transition, which has a very different nature for the two limiting models. Our results indicate that the metal-insulator transition rather resembles that of the Hubbard model as soon as a tiny hopping between the more localized fermions is switched on. At low temperatures we observe a first-order metal-insulator transition and a three peak structure. The width of the central peak is the same for the more and less mobile fermions when approaching the phase transition, which agrees with our expectation of a common Kondo temperature and phase transition for the two species.     

Laser-rf double-resonance hyperfine structure measurements of the metastable 3d 4s 1 D 2 state of43Ca

The hyperfine structure of the (3(d 4s)¹ D ₂metastable state of⁴³Ca has been measured using theABMR-LIRF method (atomic beam magnetic resonance, detected by laser induced resonance fluorescence). The measurements yielded for the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole constantsA=?17.650(2) MHz andB=?4.642(12) MHz, respectively. From the measuredB factor the spectroscopic electric quadrupole moment (uncorrected for shielding effects) has been calculated to beQ(⁴³Ca)=?0.062(12) barn. In addition, isotope shifts in the lines (3d 4s)¹ D ₂(3d 4p)¹ F ₃ ⁰ and (3d 4s)¹ D ₂(4s 5p)¹ p ₁ ⁰ for the stable calcium isotopes have been obtained by high resolution laser spectroscopy.

Evidence for a Mott-Hubbard transition in a two-dimensional 3He fluid monolayer

The heat capacity and magnetization of a fluid 3He monolayer adsorbed on graphite plated with a bilayer of HD have been measured in the temperature range 1-60 mK. Approaching the density at which the monolayer solidifies into a sqrt[7]xsqrt[7] commensurate solid, we observe an apparent divergence of the effective mass and magnetization corresponding to a T=0 Mott-Hubbard transition between a 2D Fermi liquid and a magnetically disordered solid. The observations are consistent with the Brinkman-Rice-Anderson-Vollhardt scenario for a metal-insulator transition. We observe a leading order T2 correction to the linear term in heat capacity.     

General spectral function expressions of a 1D correlated model

We introduce a method that allows the evaluation of general expressions for the spectral functions of the one-dimensional Hubbard model for all values of the on-site electronic repulsion U. The spectral weights are expressed in terms of pseudofermion operators such that the spectral functions can be written as a convolution of pseudofermion dynamical correlation functions. Our results are valid for all finite energy and momentum values and are used elsewhere in the study of the unusual finite-energy properties of quasi-one-dimensional compounds and the new quantum systems of ultra-cold fermionic atoms on an optical lattice.     

Correlated strength in the nuclear spectral function

We have carried out an (e,e'p) experiment at high momentum transfer and in parallel kinematics to measure the strength of the nuclear spectral function S(k,E) at high nucleon momenta k and large removal energies E. This strength is related to the presence of short-range and tensor correlations, and was known hitherto only indirectly and with considerable uncertainty from the lack of strength in the independent-particle region. This experiment locates by direct measurement the correlated strength predicted by theory.     

The reactions48Ca(d,t)47Ca and48Ca(3He, α)47Ca

The reactions⁴⁸Ca(d, t)⁴⁷Ca and⁴⁸Ca(³He, α)⁴⁷Ca have been measured at incident energies of 17 and 18 MeV, respectively and analysed by DWBA. Besides strong transitions to the groundstate and two unresolved states at aboutE _x =2.60 MeV relatively strong transitions withl=2 are observed at higher excitation energies in the (³He, α) reaction. The observedl=1 and higherl=3 transitions are rather weak indicating that particle-hole components in the⁴⁸Ca groundstate are relatively small.
