Quantum materials featuring both itinerant and localized degrees of freedom exhibit numerous exotic phases and transitions that deviate from the Ginzburg-Landau paradigm. This work uses the composite operator formalism to examine two-orbital strongly correlated Hubbard models. We observe the spontaneous breaking of orbital symmetry, where the electron density in one of the orbitals reaches half-filling, resulting in an orbitally selective Mott phase (OSMP). This broken symmetry phase becomes unstable at a critical average electronic density away from half-filling. Furthermore, significant orbital differentiation persists up to a moderate inter-orbital hopping, beyond which the system abruptly transitions to an orbitally uniform phase. In the OSMP phase, the electrons in the two orbitals are weakly hybridized, resulting in a small Fermi surface. The volume of the Fermi surface jumps at the transition from the OSMP to the orbitally uniform phase. We also discuss the physical mechanisms leading to the collapse of the OSMP phase under different perturbations. |
