Phase diagram of the 1-dimensional t--J mode

The phase diagram of the one-dimensional t-J model is investigated by analyzing the results of exact diagonalization and the exact solutions at J/t=0 and 2. Phase separation takes place above a critical value of J around Jc/t=2.5 3.5 depending on the electron density. In the small-J region, Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory holds and its correlation exponents are calculated as a function of J/t and the electron density. Superconducting correlations become dominant in a region between the solvable case (J/t=2) and phase separation. A spin-gap region is also found at low density. © 1991 The American Physical Society
