Spin loop-current textures in Hubbard models
arXiv:2305.13557 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.108.195118
Abstract
The recent experimental observations of loop current in SrIrO, YBaCuO, and SrCuO have inspired a theoretical study that broadly redefines loop current as a manifestation of quantum liquid crystals. Using the density-matrix renormalization group method, we investigate the emergence of spin loop-current (sLC) textures in carrier-doped (i) excitonic insulators, (ii) orbital-selective Mott insulators, and (iii) two-dimensional Mott insulators, modeled by a two-orbital Hubbard model on a ladder lattice in (i) and (ii) and a single-orbital Hubbard model on a square lattice in (iii). Calculating the spatial distribution of spin current around a bond to which a pinning field is applied, we find conditions for longer-ranged sLC correlations. In system (i), when using the model parameters employed to describe the excitonic condensation, we find that a sLC texture appears near half filling, associated with an excitonic condensation in a spin channel. In system (ii), using typical sets of model parameters for BaFeSe, we find that a sLC texture appears at electron fillings where a block-type antiferromagnetism develops. In system (iii), introducing a next-nearest-neighbor hopping (in units of the nearest-neighbor hopping) suggested for high- cuprates, we find that an axial-sLC texture emerges at hole-carrier density , where the charge stripe simultaneously appears.
