Abstract
Photoinduced metallic states in a Mott insulator are studied for the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard model with the time-dependent density-matrix renormalization group. An irradiation of strong ac fields is found to create, in the nonequilibrium steady state, a linear dispersion in the optical spectrum (current-current correlation) reminiscent of the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid for the doped Mott insulator in equilibrium. The spin spectrum in nonequilibrium retains the des Cloizeaux--Pearson mode with the spin velocity differing from the charge velocity. The mechanism of the photocarrier doping, along with the renormalization in the charge velocity, is analyzed in terms of an effective Dirac model.
