For odd L0, it is correlated metal at the particle–hole symmetric point, and then turns into band insulator beyond this point. For even L0, the system has a Mott insulator phase around the particle–hole symmetric point and undergoes a metal–insulator transition with on-site repulsion U increasing. For large U,there exists a multiperiodic spin structure, which results from the ferromagnetic（antiferromagnetic） correlation between the nearest neighboring repulsive sites for odd（even） L0.展开更多
