1 Quantum Criticality S. Sachdev and B. Keimer, Physics Today, February 2011 Talk online: sachdev.physics.harvard.edu HARVARD
2 What is a quantum phase transition? Non-analyticity in ground state properties as a function of some control parameter g
3 What is a quantum phase transition? Non-analyticity in ground state properties as a function of some control parameter g E g True level crossing: Usually a first-order transition
4 What is a quantum phase transition? Non-analyticity in ground state properties as a function of some control parameter g E E True level crossing: Usually a first-order transition g Avoided level crossing which becomes sharp in the infinite volume limit: second-order transition g
5 g Many levels are important near a second-order quantum phase transition
6 Why study quantum phase transitions? g c g The ground states at large and small g have wavefunctions which can usually be written as products of wavefunctions of local degrees of freedom i.e. they have negligible quantum entanglement. The quantum critical state at gc often has longrange quantum entanglement : the spooky non-local quantum correlations pointed out by Einstein, Podolsky, and Rosen survive in a macrosopic system at the longest distances.
7 Why study quantum phase transitions? g c g We are often able to describe the quantum state at gc by methods drawn from quantum field theory; expansion in g-gc then allows for a controlled theory in an intermediate coupling regime important for many experimental systems
8 Why study quantum phase transitions? T Quantum criticality g c g The quantum critical point controls properties over a wide regime of quantum criticality at non-zero temperatures. I will argue that this regime is the key to understanding the physical properties of a variety of modern electronic materials.
