Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We consider a strongly correlated system in which an energy gap exist between the insulating ground state and excited states. By applying a variational Monte Carlo method, which is often used for ground states, to excited states, we studied how the excited state behaves as a quasi-stationary state after some weak relaxation processes. We found that the pair-formed and paramagnetic states exhibit phase transitions to (super)conducting states with weak excitation strengths, whereas the antiferromagnetic (AF) state preserves an insulating state. The energy is lowest for the AF state. Therefore, after relaxation from an initial transient conductive state, the state becomes an AF state, which is similar to the ground state.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
強い電子相関がある絶縁体の励起後の緩和過程に対応する理論的研究として、動的研究より基礎的な点を明らかにすることで、光励起や光学格子の実験結果を深く追求できる素地ができたと考えられる。通常、励起後の緩和した状態が金属的になるのが当然と考えられているが、モット領域であれば、それが誤解であることを示せた。励起に関しても、半導体の物理のモットの物理が著しく異なることを示せた。主流である動的研究に、本研究の成果は反映される必要があろう。
