By solving the pole equations of the Green function, we have, for the first time, qualitatively calculated the spectral weight functions of the corresponding low-energy excitations. We find that when the impurity spacing is less than one lattice distance, the dynamic Rudermann–Kittel–Kasuya–Yosida(RKKY) interaction effectively enters, resulting in a rapid increase in the spectral weights of the RKKY phase, which ultimately surpass those of the Kondo phase;while the spectral weights of the Kondo phase are strongly suppressed. From the perspective of spectral weights, we further confirm the existence of a crossover from the Kondo phase to the RKKY phase in the TIAM. Based on these results, the reasons for the phenomenon of the Kondo resonance splitting are also discussed.展开更多
