Charge-transfer metal-insulator transitions in the spin-one-half Falicov-Kimball model
arXiv:cond-mat/9802120 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.57.11955
Abstract
The spin-one-half Falicov-Kimball model is solved exactly on an infinite-coordination-number Bethe lattice in the thermodynamic limit. This model is a paradigm for a charge-transfer metal-insulator transition where the occupancy of localized and delocalized electronic orbitals rapidly changes at the metal-insulator transition (rather than the character of the electronic states changing from insulating to metallic as in a Mott-Hubbard transition). The exact solution displays both continuous and discontinuous (first-order) transitions.
