Photon Echo from Lensing of Fractional Excitations in Tomonaga-Luttinger Spin Liquid

چکیده
We study theoretically the nonlinear optical response of Tomonaga-Luttinger spin liquid in context terahertz (THz) two-dimensional coherent spectroscopy (2DCS). Using gapless phase XXZ-type chain as an example, we show that its third-order magnetic susceptibilities $\chi^{(3)}_{+--+}$ and $\chi^{(3)}_{-++-}$ exhibit photon echo, where $\pm$ refers to left/right-hand circular polarization with respect $S^z$ axis. The echo arises from a ``lensing'' phenomenon which wave packets fractional excitations move apart then come back toward each other, amounting refocusing excitations' world lines. Renormalization group irrelevant corrections fixed point Hamiltonian result dispersion and/or damping packets, can be sensitively detected by lensing consequently echo. Our results thus unveil strength THz-2DCS probing dynamical properties collective prototypical many-body system.

Attractive Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid in a quantum spin ladder.
We present NMR measurements of a strong-leg spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic ladder compound (C7H10N)2CuBr4 under magnetic fields up to 15 T in the temperature range from 1.2 K down to 50 mK. From the splitting of NMR lines, we determine the phase boundary and the order parameter of the low-temperature (three-dimensional) long-range-ordered phase. In the Tomonaga-Luttinger regime above the...
متن کاملProbing spin-charge separation in a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid.
In a one-dimensional (1D) system of interacting electrons, excitations of spin and charge travel at different speeds, according to the theory of a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) at low energies. However, the clear observation of this spin-charge separation is an ongoing challenge experimentally. We have fabricated an electrostatically gated 1D system in which we observe spin-charge separation ...
متن کاملUniversal Behavior of Quantum Impurity Scattering in Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid
Using bosonization and path integral methods, we study general low temperature behavior of non-magnetic and magnetic impurity scattering in Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid, and calculate electron Green function for a general backward scattering potential. We demonstrate that electron density of state near the impurity site is suppressed by the backward scattering, but it mainly remains invariant as f...
متن کاملPossibility of a Two-Component Tomonaga-Luttinger Liquid in Frustrated Integer-Spin Tubes
Uniform-field effects for frustrated odd-leg integer-spin tubes (cylinder type spin systems) are investigated in the weak interchain-coupling regime. We predict that, as the field exceeds the spin gap, a two-component Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) appears due to the condensation of the doubly degenerate lowest magnons. Furthermore, it is argued that when the uniform field is so strong that th...
متن کاملScaling of temporal correlations in an attractive Tomonaga-Luttinger spin liquid
We report temperature-dependent neutron scattering measurements of the local dynamic structure factor in the quantum spin ladder (C7H10N)2CuBr4 in a magnetic field H = 9 T, in its gapless quantum-critical phase. We show that the measured quantity has a scaling form consistent with expectations for a Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid with attraction. The measured Luttinger parameter K ≈ 1.25 and scaling...
