Formation of Electronic Nematic Phase in Interacting Systems
arXiv:cond-mat/0402565 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.70.155110
Abstract
We study the formation of an electronic nematic phase characterized by a broken point-group symmetry in interacting fermion systems within the weak coupling theory. As a function of interaction strength and chemical potential, the phase transition between the isotropic Fermi liquid and nematic phase is first order at zero temperature and becomes second order at a finite temperature. The transition is present for all typical, including quasi-2D, electronic dispersions on the square lattice and takes place for arbitrarily small interaction when at van Hove filling, thus suppressing the Lifshitz transition. In connection with the formation of the nematic phase, we discuss the origin of the first order transition and competition with other broken symmetry states.
