Electronic properties of NiS{sub 2{minus}x}Se{sub x} single crystals: From magnetic Mott-Hubbard insulators to normal metals

Journal Article Honig, J.M. ; Spalek, J. - Chemistry of Materials

The NiS{sub 2{minus}x}Se{sub x} system represents one of the best examples of a Mott-Hubbard system, i.e., a system in which, under appropriate conditions of concentration, temperature, or pressure, a metal-insulator transition driven by electron-electron interaction takes place. Here, the metallic phase is either antiferromagnetic (for 0.44 {le} x {le} 1) or paramagnetic (for x {ge} 1), whereas the insulating phase is as a rule antiferromagnetic (including the spin-canted phases). In this paper the authors review both the physical properties and outline the basic features of the theoretical approach to those correlated electron systems. Emphasis is placed on a qualitative understandingmore »« less

Electronic structure of Mott insulators. [Insulating gap, local moment, effective spin Hamiltonian]

Journal Article Brandow, B.H. - Adv. Phys.; (United States)

Mott insulators are identified here with ordinary magnetic insulators. The insulating gap, local moment, and effective spin hamiltonian aspects are qualitatively explained by means of a novel set of solutions of the Hartree-Fock equations. The apparent conflict between Bloch's theorem and localized-electron phenomenology is thereby resolved in an elementary manner. This Hartree-Fock approach also sheds considerable light on the physical mechanisms responsible for the associated metal-insulator (Mott) and other related phase transitions, as observed in V/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and several other materials. With some generalizations and refinements, this theoretical picture is shown to also account semiquantitatively for a number ofmore »« less

Testing the gauge model of doped Mott Insulators

Journal Article Schofield, A.J. ; Wheatley, J.M. - Bulletin of the American Physical Society

One of the unresolved issues in the understanding of the Cuprate Superconductors is the theory of their unusual normal state properties. One of the more promising developments in their understanding is the gauge model of doped Mott Insulators where the charge degrees of freedom are coupled to the chiral fluctuations of the spins. Here the authors study the consequences of this coupling via numerical tests to determine whether it can account for anomalous properties such as the diamagnetic response and the temperature dependence of the Hall coefficient.
Nonmagnetic molecular Jahn-Teller Mott insulators

Journal Article Fabrizio, M. ; Tosatti, E. - Physical Review, B: Condensed Matter

Narrow-band conductors may turn insulating and magnetic as a consequence of strong electron-electron correlation. In molecular conductors, the concomitance of a strong Jahn-Teller coupling may give rise to the alternative possibility of a nonmagnetic insulator, with or without a static cooperative Jahn-Teller distortion. In the latter case the insulator has Mott-like properties, with an interesting interplay between electron-electron repulsion and the Jahn-Teller effect, which is dynamical. We study this kind of nonmagnetic insulator in a very simple E{circle_times}e Jahn-Teller model and we discuss its general properties in a more general context, also in connection with the insulating state of K{submore »« less
