Exact diagonalization study of optical conductivity in two-dimensional Hubbard model

الأصل · EN

The optical conductivity σ(ω) in the two-dimensional Hubbard model is examined by applying the exact diagonalization technique to small square clusters with periodic boundary conditions up to √20 X √20 sites. Spectral-weight distributions at half filling and their doping dependence in the 20-site cluster are found to be similar to those in a √18 X √18 cluster, but different from 4 X 4 results. The results for the 20-site cluster enable us to perform a systematic study of the doping dependence of the spectral-weight transfer from the region of the Mott-gap excitation to lower-energy regions. We discuss the dependence of the Drude weight and the effective carrier number on the electron density at a large on-site Coulomb interaction.
