Download or read book The Mott Metal Insulator Transition written by Florian Gebhard and published by Springer Tracts in Modern Physics. This book was released on 1997-03-20 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The metal-insulator transition due to electron-electron interactions is one of the most celebrated but least understood problems in condensed matter physics. Here this subject is comprehensively reviewed for the first time since Sir Nevill Mott's monograph of 1990. A pedagogical introduction to the basic concepts for the Mott transition, the Hubbard model, and various analytical approaches to correlated electron systems is presented. A new classification scheme for Mott insulators as Mott-Hubbard and Mott-Heisenberg insulators is proposed. Traditional methods are critically examined for their potential to describe the Mott transition. This book will make an excellent reference for scientists researching in the field of electron transport in condensed matter.
Download or read book Insulators written by Kevin L. Richardson and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insulator, also called a dielectric, is a material that resists the flow of electric current. An insulating material has atoms with tightly bonded valence electrons. These materials are used in parts of electrical equipment, also called insulators or insulation, intended to support or separate electrical conductors without passing current through themselves. Some materials such as glass, paper or Teflon are very good electrical insulators. This book presents topical research data in the study of insulators, including design and development of a new type of ferromagnetic insulator; insulator inspection technologies; high-k dielectric insulators used in low-voltage organic field-effect transistors; the electrodynamics of Mott insulators and insulator-to-metal transitions; and, the leakage current on high voltage contaminated insulators.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the states in the vicinity of the Mott insulator is crucial to understanding both the physics of the transition between a Mott insulating phase and a metallic phase and the physics of the cuprate high-temperature superconductors. In this thesis, we start from the standard Mott insulating regime of the two dimensional Hubbard model. We then study the physics of nearby states where transport has been restored. First we consider doping of the Hubbard model in the strong coupling limit, i.e. the t-J model. Using the variational Monte Carlo technique, we study Gutzwiller projected states. In particular, studying the projected BCS quasiparticles, we calculate the renormalization of the quasipaticle current and the spectral weight. Both are investigated as a function of momentum and doping. Finally, we discuss the relation between this model and the cuprate superconductors. In the second half of this thesis, we return to the half-filled Hubbard model but now at intermediate values of U/t. In this regime, we study the spin liquid phase, a state that possibly lives between the Mott insulator and the normal metal. Motivated by the recently created organic compound r-(BEDT-TTF)2- Cu2(CN)3, we study a particular spin liquid where there is a spinon Fermi surface coupled to a U(1) gauge field. While still a charge insulator, this model has many metallic-like properties. We first develop a quantum Boltzmann equation for this model from which we calculate the spin resistivity and the more experimentally accessible thermal conductivity. We then proceed to consider spinon pairing and calculate the gauge field contribution to the spin susceptibility. We find that the theoretical result is consistent with experiments giving further evidence that at low temperatures this compound is described by this particular U(1) spin liquid.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The benefits of ionizing radiations have been largely demonstrated through many achievements of human life. Understanding the fundamental elementary interactions of ionizing radiations with material has allowed the development of various applications needed by different industries. This book draws some facets of their applications, such as hardening process for semiconductor devices, biomedical imaging by radiation luminescent quantum dots, hydrogen gas detection by Raman lidar sensor for explosion risk assessment, water and wastewater purification by radiation treatment for environment, doping by the neutron transmutation doping for the semiconductor industry, and polymerization by irradiation, which is useful for industries requiring resistant and protective coating. I wish the chapters of this book can provide some helpful information on ionizing radiation applications.

Download or read book Negative Thermal Expansion in a Novel Mott Insulator written by Tongfei Qi and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ca2RuO4 is a structurally-driven Mott insulator with a metal-insulator (MI) transition at TMI = 357K, followed by a well-separated antiferromagnetic order at TN = 110 K. Slightly substituting Ru with a 3d transition metal ion M effectively shifts TMI and induces exotic magnetic behavior below TN. Moreover, M doping for Ru produces negative thermal expansion in Ca2Ru1-xMxO4 (M = Cr, Mn, Fe or Cu); the lattice volume expands on cooling with a total volume expansion ratio reaching as high as 1%. The onset of the negative thermal expansion closely tracks TMI and TN, sharply contrasting classic negative thermal expansion that shows no relevance to electronic properties. In addition, the observed negative thermal expansion occurs near room temperature and extends over a wide temperature interval. These findings underscores new physics driven by a complex interplay between orbital, spin and lattice degrees of freedom. These materials constitute a new class of Negative Thermal Expansion materials with novel electronic and magnetic functions.
