          Abstract

          We compute the time-resolved photoemission spectrum after photo-doping in a two-dimensional Mott-Hubbard insulator. We find that the relaxation rate of high-energy photo-doped electrons in the paramagnetic phase scales with the strength of the nearest-neighbor spin correlations, which implies a pronounced increase of the relaxation times with temperature and excitation density. Finite doping, in contrast, opens additional scattering channels and leads to a faster relaxation. To obtain our results we have implemented a nonequilibrium version of the dynamical cluster approximation (DCA), which, in contrast to single-site dynamical mean-field theory, captures the effect of short-range correlations.

          Ultrafast optical switching to a metallic state by photoinduced mott transition in a halogen-bridged nickel-chain compound.

          A Maeda, S. Iwai, H Matsuzaki … (2003)
          We demonstrate the ultrafast photoinduced Mott transition from a charge transfer insulator to a metal in a halogen-bridged Ni-chain compound by pump-probe reflection spectroscopy. Upon the irradiation of a 130-femtosecond laser pulse, the spectral weight of the gap transition is transferred to the inner-gap region. When the photoexcitation density exceeds 0.1/Ni site, the Drude-like high-reflection band appears in the infrared region, signaling the formation of a metallic state. The photogeneration of the metallic state and the subsequent recovery to the original gapped state occur within a few picoseconds.

            Nonequilibrium dynamical mean-field theory

            , , (2013)
            The many-body formalism for dynamical mean-field theory is extended to treat nonequilibrium problems. We illustrate how the formalism works by examining the transient decay of the oscillating current that is driven by a large electric field turned on at time t=0. We show how the Bloch oscillations are quenched by the electron-electron interactions, and how their character changes dramatically for a Mott insulator.

              Revealing the high-energy electronic excitations underlying the onset of high-temperature superconductivity in cuprates

              Claudio Giannetti, Federico Cilento, Stefano Dal Conte … (2011)
              In strongly correlated systems the electronic properties at the Fermi energy (E F) are intertwined with those at high-energy scales. One of the pivotal challenges in the field of high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC) is to understand whether and how the high-energy scale physics associated with Mott-like excitations (|E−E F|>1 eV) is involved in the condensate formation. Here, we report the interplay between the many-body high-energy CuO2 excitations at 1.5 and 2 eV, and the onset of HTSC. This is revealed by a novel optical pump-supercontinuum-probe technique that provides access to the dynamics of the dielectric function in Bi2Sr2Ca0.92Y0.08Cu2O8+δ over an extended energy range, after the photoinduced suppression of the superconducting pairing. These results unveil an unconventional mechanism at the base of HTSC both below and above the optimal hole concentration required to attain the maximum critical temperature (T c).
