In recent years, phenomena originating from spin-orbit coupling (SOC), such as topological phenomena, have been intensively studied. To realize these phenomena, materials containing heavy elements have been investigated because of large SOC. On the other hand, to enhance the effect of the SOC, it may be possible to use enhancement of the effective SOC by the Coulomb interaction between electrons. In this study, to investigate such enhancement of the SOC, we consider a two-orbital model, which is a minimal model to include SOC. By using the variational Monte Carlo method, we find that the effective SOC can become several times larger than the bare value by the Coulomb interaction. This study will expand the target materials for the SOC-originated phenomena to strongly correlated metals without heavy elements.

For the variational wave function, we include short-range doublon-holon binding factors. We find that the energy of this wave function is lower than that of the density-density Jastrow wave function partially including long-range correlations used in a previous study.

Superconductivity in a model on a cubic lattice for a non-Kramers system is discussed. In our previous studies, we have found that
-wave superconductivity with
symmetry occurs in a wide parameter range in a
system. In such an anisotropic superconducting state, the cubic symmetry of the system can be broken. Since the quadrupole degrees of freedom is active in a
system, the effect of cubic symmetry breaking should be important. In
or
superconducting state, a ferroquadrupole moment of
becomes finite. In this study, we investigate the coexisting states of the superconductivity and ferroquadrupole order of
by a mean-field theory. Then, we find that superconducting transition temperature can be increased by the quadrupole ordering.

-wave superconductivity with

In particular, we discuss possible competition and cooperation between the superconductivity and quadrupole order depending on types of them. We find nematic superconductivity breaking the cubic symmetry and coexisting with quadrupole order. In the present model, we also find
superconductivity, which breaks time-reversal symmetry but retains the cubic symmetry. We also discuss the effects of uniaxial stress on these superconducting states.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:15.57(Nanoscience & Nanotechnology)A cubic system with the cubic crystalline electric field (CEF) state is an ideal system to investigate multipole physics, since it does not have dipole but has higher-order multipoles such as quadrupole and octupole. In addition, superconductivity has been observed in PrT

Then, we have obtained a d-wave spin-singlet state. We will discuss the relevance of the present theory to the PrT

被引用回数:2 パーセンタイル:21.78(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We propose a variational wavefunction containing parameters to tune the probabilities of all the possible onsite configurations for the periodic Anderson model. We call it the full onsite-correlation wavefunction (FOWF). This is a simple extension of the Gutzwiller wavefunction (GWF), in which one parameter is included to tune the double occupancy of the electrons at the same site. We compare the energy of the GWF and the FOWF evaluated by the variational Monte Carlo method and that obtained with the density-matrix renormalization group method. We find that the energy is considerably improved in the FOWF. On the other hand, the physical quantities do not change significantly between these two wavefunctions as long as they describe the same phase, such as the paramagnetic phase. From these results, we not only demonstrate the improvement by the FOWF, but we also gain insights on the applicability and limitation of the GWF to the periodic Anderson model.

被引用回数:1 パーセンタイル:46.97In recent years, Fermi-surface reconstruction, which is called a Lifshitz transition, has been discussed as a possible origin of anomalies in magnetic phases of several f-electron materials. To clarify the characteristics of the Lifshitz transitions, we investigate magnetically ordered states of the periodic Anderson model by applying the variational Monte Carlo method. Around half-filling, we find an antiferromagnetic phase, and far away from half-filling, we find a ferromagnetic phase as the ground state. Inside the both magnetic phases, Lifshitz transitions take place. At the Lifshitz transitions, the sizes of the ordered moments change. We find that, in the large ordered-moment states, the f-electron contribution to the Fermi surface becomes small. This observation clearly shows that these Lifshitz transitions are itinerant-localized transitions of the f electrons.

被引用回数:18 パーセンタイル:72.83(Physics, Multidisciplinary)We investigate the reconstruction of a Fermi surface, which is called a Lifshitz transition, in magnetically ordered phases of the periodic Anderson model on a square lattice with a finite Coulomb interaction between electrons. We apply the variational Monte Carlo method to the model by using the Gutzwiller wave functions for the paramagnetic, antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and charge-density-wave states. We find that an antiferromagnetic phase is realized around half-filling and a ferromagnetic phase is realized when the system is far away from half-filling. In both magnetic phases, Lifshitz transitions take place. By analyzing the electronic states, we conclude that the Lifshitz transitions to large ordered-moment states can be regarded as itinerant-localized transitions of the
electrons.

被引用回数:3 パーセンタイル:72.71The periodic Anderson model has been studied as a typical model for f-electron systems. However, the knowledge on magnetism of this model is still limited. Here, we investigate magnetic states of the periodic Anderson model on a square lattice by applying the variational Monte Carlo method. We consider the Gutzwiller wavefunctions for the paramagnetic, antiferromagnetic, ferromagnetic, and charge density wave states as variational wavefunctions. Then, we evaluate energy of each state by the Monte Carlo method and determine the ground state. Around half-filling (the number of electrons n per site is two), we find an antiferromagnetic phase for a small hybridization matrix element V and a deep f level. When carriers are doped enough, for example, n=1.5, we find a half-metallic phase in a wide parameter region. It is consistent with the previous study for the ferromagnetism by the Gutzwiller approximation. We will also discuss the physical quantities in these phases.

We study ferromagnetic states in the periodic Anderson model by using the Gutzwiller method. We find three ferromagnetic states: a weakly polarized state, a half-metallic state, and a ferromagnetic state with an almost completely polarized f-electron state. Between these ferromagnetic states, the structure of the Fermi surface is different. In the paramagnetic state, a large Fermi-surface is realized. The topology of the Fermi surface in the weakly polarized state is the same as in the paramagnetic state. In the half-metallic state, the Fermi surface for the majority spin disappears. In the ferromagnetic state with large f-electron polarization, a small Fermi-surface is realized. Then, the phase transitions between these ferromagnetic states accompany change in the Fermi-surface topology, called Lifshitz transitions.

被引用回数:22 パーセンタイル:67.09(Materials Science, Multidisciplinary)We study ferromagnetism in the periodic Anderson model with and without a magnetic field by the Gutzwiller theory. We find three ferromagnetic phases: a weak ferromagnetic phase (FM0), a half-metallic phase without Fermi surface for the majority spin (FM1), and a ferromagnetic phase with almost completely polarized -electrons (FM2). The Fermi surface changes from the large Fermi-surface in the paramagnetic state to the small Fermi-surface in FM2. We also find that the transitions between the ferromagnetic phases can be second-order phase transitions in spite of the absence of symmetry breaking. While we cannot define an order parameter for such transitions in an ordinary way, the topology of the Fermi surface characterizes the transitions, i.e., they are Lifshitz transitions.

高レベル放射性廃棄物の地層処分においては、廃棄体を埋設した坑道の周囲に発生する掘削影響領域の特性が放射性核種の移行挙動評価のうえで重要となる。強度が小さい岩盤の場合、坑道を掘削することにより発生する掘削影響領域では岩盤の破壊も生じると考えられる。しかしながら、坑道閉鎖後の長期においては、破壊した岩盤に支保内圧と地圧の双方が作用することにより、破壊により低下した岩盤の物性が回復することが考えられる。本報告は、破壊により低下した岩盤の物性の回復を把握するために実施した室内試験の結果を示すものである。試験の結果、載荷した荷重の大きさ・時間に応じて、強度及び遮水性が回復することが明らかとなった。
