The competition between interaction and temperature shows that with the increase of the anisotropic parameter, the critical on-site repulsive interaction for the metal-insulator transition increases for fixed temperature. The interaction-anisotropic parameter phase diagram reveals that with the decrease of temperature, the critical anisotropic parameter for the Mott transition will increase for fixed interaction cases.展开更多

Three stages of magnetization behavior exist when oxygen content changes in the system. As the oxygen increases, the absence of percolation effect of magnetic nano-particles makes the multi-domain structure broken so that high coercivity appears in the samples with proper oxygen content. A temperature-dependent Stoner–Wohlfarth model is used to explain the magnetization properties at relatively high temperature. Magnetizations with magnetic field in and out of the sample plane are also investigated to prove the mechanisms. This work provides a systematic study of a new kind ofv amorphous magnetic system and is helpful for us to know more about this type of material.展开更多

The quantum phase diagrams which reflect the temperature-interaction relation and the competition between the anisotropic parameter and the interaction are presented with full consideration of the anisotropy of the system. Our results show that the system undergoes a transition from Fermi liquid to Mott insulator when the repulsive interaction reaches a critical value. The Kondo effect also can be observed in this system and the pseudogap is suppressed at low temperatures due to the Kondo effect. A feasible experiment protocol to observe these phenomena in an anisotropic triangular optical lattice with cold atoms is proposed, in which the hopping terms are closely related to the lattice confining potential and the atomic interaction can be adjusted via the Feshbach resonance.展开更多
