Distinct Nature of Orbital Selective Mott Phases Dominated by the Low-energy Local Spin Fluctuations


الملخص بالإنكليزية

Quantum orbital selective Mott (OSM) transitions are investigated within dynamical mean-field theory based on a two-orbital Hubbard model with different bandwidth at half filling. We find two distinct OSM phases both showing coexistence of itinerant electrons and localized spins, dependent on whether the Hunds coupling is full or of Ising type. The critical values and the nature of the OSM transitions are efficiently determined by entanglement entropy. We reveal that vanishing of the Kondo energy scale evidenced by absence of local spin fluctuations at low frequency in local dynamical spin susceptibility is responsible for the appearance of non-Fermi-liquid OSM phase in Ising Hunds coupling case. We argue that this scenario can also be applied to account for emergent quantum non-Fermi liquid in one-band Hubbard model when short-range antiferromagnetic order is considered.
