【 摘 要 】

Recent realization of well-controlled quantum simulators of the triangular-lattice Fermi-Hubbard model, including the triangular optical lattices loaded with ultracold Fermions and the heterostructures of the transition -metal dichalcogenides, as well as the more advanced techniques to probe them, pave the way for studying frustrated Fermi-Hubbard physics. Here, we theoretically predict asymmetric photoemission and tunneling spectroscopies for a lightly hole-doped and electron-doped triangular Mott antiferromagnet, and reveal two distinct types of magnetic polarons: a lightly renormalized quasiparticle with the same momentum as the spin background and a heavily renormalized quasiparticle with a shifted momentum and a nearly flat band, using both analytical and unbiased numerical methods. We propose these theoretical findings to be verified in frustrated optical lattices and Moire superlattices by probing various observables including the spectral function, the density of states, the energy dispersion, and the quasiparticle weight. Moreover, we reveal the asymmetric response of the spin background against charge doping, demonstrating that the interplay between the local spin and charge degrees of freedom plays a vital role in doped triangular Mott antiferromagnets.
