Spectral signatures of residual electron pairing in the extended-Hubbard-Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model

Abstract

We study the electron addition spectrum of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard-Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (HSSH) model in the dilute limit using the density matrix renormalization group method. In addition to the expected renormalization to the band structure, we find that the electron-phonon (e-ph) interaction produces an anomalous spectral feature when electrons are added in the singlet channel but which is absent in the triplet channel. By comparing these results with those obtained from perturbation theory in the antiadiabatic limit, we demonstrate that this anomalous feature is a remnant of the strong electron-electron interaction mediated by the SSH coupling previously derived in the two-particle limit. By studying the evolution of this feature as a function of doping, we track the fate of this attraction to higher carrier concentrations and provide predictions for the spectral features to help guide future searches for strong e-ph mediated pairing.
