We report a high-resolution resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of La2CuO4. A number of spectral features are identified that were not clearly visible in earlier lower-resolution data. The momentum dependence of the spectral weight…
The complex dielectric constant $\hat{\epsilon} = \epsilon_1 + i \epsilon_2$ of SrTiO$_3$ reaches high values $\epsilon_1 \approx 2*10^{4}$ at cryogenic temperatures, while the dielectric losses ($\epsilon_2$) are much stronger than for…
CoO has an odd number of electrons in its unit cell, and therefore is expected to be metallic. Yet, CoO is strongly insulating owing to significant electronic correlations, thus classifying it as a Mott insulator. We investigate the…
It is rigorously shown that the two-dimensional Hubbard model with narrow bands (including next nearest-neighbor hopping, etc.) does not exhibit $d_{x^2 -y^2}$-wave pairing long-range order at any nonzero temperature. This kind of pairing…
