Crossover from Fermi Liquid to Wigner Molecule Behavior in Quantum Dots

Open access

Abstract

The crossover from weak to strong correlations in parabolic quantum dots at zero magnetic field is studied by numerically exact path-integral Monte Carlo simulations for up to eight electrons. By the use of a multilevel blocking algorithm, the simulations are carried out free of the fermion sign problem. We obtain a universal crossover governed only by the density parameter ${r}_{s}$. For ${r}_{s}>{r}_{c}$, the data are consistent with a Wigner molecule description, while, for ${r}_{s}<{r}_{c}$, Fermi liquid behavior is recovered. The crossover value ${r}_{c}\ensuremath{\approx}4$ is surprisingly small.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
