The charge-density-wave (CDW)–spin-density-wave (SDW) phase transition of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model is investigated in the strong correlation regime, from the viewpoint of the quantum coherence or decoherence of the two correlated states. In the finite-size system, the CDW wave function, near the phase boundary, has the significant quantum fluctuations due to the SDW domains. The superposition of these SDW domains leads to the quantum coherence between the CDW and SDW wave functions. However, the scaling analysis shows that the density of the SDW fluctuations becomes asymptotically zero in the infinite-size limit, which indicates the decoherence of the two states in the bulk phase transition.
