Pseudogap metal and magnetization plateau from doping moiré Mott insulator

Abstract

The problem of doping Mott insulators is of fundamental importance and long-standing interest in the study of strongly correlated electron systems. The advent of semiconductor based moiré materials opens a new ground for simulating the Hubbard model on the triangular lattice and exploring the rich phase diagram of doped Mott insulators as a function of doping and external magnetic field. Based on our recent identification of spin polaron quasiparticle in Mott insulator, in this work we predict a new metallic state emerges at small doping and intermediate field range, a pseudogap metal that exhibits a single-particle gap and a doping-dependent magnetization plateau.
