We study the excitonic insulating (EI) phase in the two-band Hubbard models on the Penrose tiling. Performing the real-space mean-field calculations systematically, we obtain the ground state phase diagrams for the vertex and center models. We find that, in some regimes, the stable EI phase is induced by small interband interactions. We argue that this originates from the electronhole pairing for the completely or nearly degenerate states, which are characteristic of the Penrose tiling. We also study spatial distribution of the order parameter, mapping it to the perpendicular space.
We study the effects of the photo irradiation on the band insulating state in the two-band Hubbard model on the Penrose tiling. Examining the time- and site-dependent physical quantities, we find that the excitionic state is dynamically induced with site-dependent order parameters. It is also clarified that, in the excitonic state induced by the photo irradiation, local oscillatory behavior appears in the electron number as well as in the order parameter, which should be characteristic of the quasiperiodic lattice.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
