Magnetic Doublon Bound States in the Kondo Lattice Model

Abstract: We present a novel pairing mechanism for electrons, mediated by magnons. These paired bound states are termed magnetic doublons''. Applying numerically exact techniques (full diagonalization and the density-matrix renormalization group, DMRG) to the Kondo lattice model at strong exchange coupling $J$ for different fillings and magnetic configurations, we demonstrate that magnetic doublon excitations exist as composite objects with very weak dispersion. They are highly stable, support a novelinverse'' colossal magnetoresistance and potentially other effects.
