Abstract
A symmetrized and dynamical density matrix renormalization group is used
to study 1-dimensional Peierls-Hubbard model at half-filling. We have in-
vestigated the exciton proprieties, the optical conductivity spectrum and
electro-absorption spectrum with strong, intermediate and weak coupling
parameter sets for the on-site and neighbor interactions. We were able to
capture the Stark effect in the case of strong coupling under static electric
field. The intermediate coupling was found to be clear for weak electric field
and destroyed for strong one. We were not able to resolve the splitting in the
case of weak coupling due to the small binding energy so that small value of
electric field could distroy the exciton.
