摘要

The excited state dynamics of correlated electron and electron-phonon systems triggered by an oscillating electric-field pulse of large amplitude are theoretically investigated. A "negative-temperature" state and inversion of electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions are induced even by a symmetric monocycle pulse. This fact is numerically demonstrated, using the exact diagonalization method, in a band-insulator phase of one-dimensional three-quarter-filled strongly dimerized extended Peierls-Hubbard and Holstein models. When the total-energy increment is maximized as a function of the electric field amplitude, the occupancy of the bonding and antibonding orbitals is inverted to produce a negative-temperature state. Around this state, the dependences of time-averaged electron-electron and electron-phonon correlation functions on interaction parameters are opposite to those in the ground state.
