Delocalization effects and charge reorganizations induced by repulsive interactions in strongly disordered chains

Abstract: Abstract. We study the delocalization effect of a short-range repulsive interaction on the ground state of a finite density of spinless fermions in strongly disordered one dimensional lattices. The density matrix renormalization group method is used to explore the charge density and the sensitivity of the ground state energy with respect to the boundary condition (the persistent current) for a wide range of parameters (carrier density, interaction and disorder). Analytical approaches are developed and allow to… Show more

“…A calculation of the finite-size corrections to the spin stiffness in a pure spin-1/2 XXZ chain, 37−39 has revealed a scaling behaviour in the gapped phase that has a similar form to the one found in our work. The result that the Drude weight in a ring in the gapless phase with an impurity scales to zero, is in agreement with a previous result obtained for a spin chain, 35 and with renormalization group arguments, which state that the impurity term is relevant leading to a transmission cut. 30,31 The observation that with disorder in the system, the interaction always leads to an additional decrease of the current and the Drude weight is also in agreement with previous results by other authors, 7,8 and can be understood as it is more difficult to move correlated electrons in a random potential than independent electrons.…”

“…As our results demonstrate, the same effects can be found in the conductance g. Considering a given nanosystem, one observes a similar resonance structure [12] as for the persistent current [32,33], although the individual peaks are wider for the conductance than for the persistent current.…”

“…The charge reorganization induced by repulsive interactions in strongly disordered systems and its associated delocalization effect was first observed in the persistent current of nanosystems [32,33] forming a ring (without the auxiliary lead introduced within the embedding approach). As our results demonstrate, the same effects can be found in the conductance g. Considering a given nanosystem, one observes a similar resonance structure [12] as for the persistent current [32,33], although the individual peaks are wider for the conductance than for the persistent current.…”
