An interacting spinless fermion wire coupled to a three-dimensional (3D) semiconducting substrate is approximated by a narrow ladder model (NLM) with varying number of legs. We compute density distributions, gaps, charge-density-wave (CDW) order parameters, correlation functions, and the central charge using the density-matrix renormalization group method. Three ground-state phases are observed: a one-component Luttinger liquid, a quasi-one-dimensional (1D) CDW insulator, and a band insulator. We investigated the convergence of the NLM properties with increasing number of legs systematically and confirm that the NLM is a good approximation for the quasi-1D phases (Luttinger liquid and CDW) of the 3D wire-substrate model. The quantum phase transitions between these phases are investigated as function of the coupling between wire and substrate. The critical nearest-neighbor interaction increases with increasing coupling between wire and substrate and thus the substrate stabilizes the Luttinger liquid in the wire. Our study confirms that a Luttinger liquid or CDW insulator phase could occur in the low-energy properties of atomic wires deposited on semiconducting substrates.

Electron- and phonon spectral functions of the one-dimensional, spinless-fermion Holstein model at half filling are calculated in the four distinct regimes of the phase diagram, corresponding to an attractive or repulsive Luttinger liquid at weak ele
ctron-phonon coupling, and a band- or polaronic insulator at strong coupling. The results obtained by means of kernel polynomial and systematic cluster approaches reveal substantially different physics in these regimes and further indicate that the size of the phonon frequency significantly affects the nature of the quantum Peierls phase transition.
We study systems of coupled spin-gapped and gapless Luttinger liquids. First, we establish the existence of a sliding Luttinger liquid phase for a system of weakly coupled parallel quantum wires, with and without disorder. It is shown that the coupli
ng can {it stabilize} a Luttinger liquid phase in the presence of disorder. We then extend our analysis to a system of crossed Luttinger liquids and establish the stability of a non-Fermi liquid state: the crossed sliding Luttinger liquid phase (CSLL). In this phase the system exhibits a finite-temperature, long-wavelength, isotropic electric conductivity that diverges as a power law in temperature $T$ as $T to 0$. This two-dimensional system has many properties of a true isotropic Luttinger liquid, though at zero temperature it becomes anisotropic. An extension of this model to a three-dimensional stack exhibits a much higher in-plane conductivity than the conductivity in a perpendicular direction.
We study electronic phase competition in a system of three coupled spinless Luttinger liquids using abelian bosonization, together with a perturbative renormalization group (RG) analysis. The scaling procedure generates off-diagonal contributions to
the phase stiffness matrix, which require both rescaling as well as large rotations of the fields. These rotations, generally non-abelian in nature, are important for correctly obtaining the dominant electronic orders and critical behavior in different parameter regimes. They generate a coupling between different interaction channels even at the tree-level order in the coupling constant scaling equations. We study competing phases in this system, taking into account the aforementioned rotations, and determine its critical behavior in a variety of interaction parameter regimes where perturbative RG is possible. The phase boundaries are found to be of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) type, and we specify the parameter regimes where valley-symmetry breaking, chiral orders, and restoration of $C_{3}$ symmetry may be observed. We discuss experimental systems where our approach and findings may be relevant.
In a one-dimensional (1D) system of interacting electrons, excitations of spin and charge travel at different speeds, according to the theory of a Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid (TLL) at low energies. However, the clear observation of this spin-charge sep
aration is an ongoing challenge experimentally. We have fabricated an electrostatically-gated 1D system in which we observe spin-charge separation and also the predicted power-law suppression of tunnelling into the 1D system. The spin-charge separation persists even beyond the low-energy regime where the TLL approximation should hold. TLL effects should therefore also be important in similar, but shorter, electrostatically gated wires, where interaction effects are being studied extensively worldwide.
In contrast to a free electron system, a Tomonaga-Luttinger (TL) liquid in a one dimensional (1D) electron system hosts charge and spin excitations as independent entities. When an electron wave packet is injected into a TL liquid, it transforms into
wave packets carrying either charge or spin that propagate at different group velocities and move away from each other. This process, known as spin-charge separation, is the hallmark of TL physics. While the existence of these TL eigenmodes has been identified in momentum- or frequency-resolved measurements, their waveforms, which are a direct manifestation of 1D electron dynamics, have been long awaited to be measured. In this study, we present a time domain measurement for the spin-charge-separation process in an asymmetric chiral TL liquid comprising quantum Hall (QH) edge channels. We measure the waveforms of both charge and spin excitations by combining a spin filter with a time-resolved charge detector. Spatial separation of charge- and spin-wave packets over a distance exceeding 200 um was confirmed. In addition, we found that the 1D electron dynamics can be controlled by tuning the electric environment. These experimental results provide fundamental information about non-equilibrium phenomena in actual 1D electron systems.
