Correlated decay of triplet excitations in the Shastry-Sutherland compound SrCu2(BO3)2.
The temperature dependence of the gapped triplet excitations (triplons) in the 2D Shastry-Sutherland quantum magnet SrCu(2)(BO(3))(2) is studied by means of inelastic neutron scattering. The excitation amplitude rapidly decreases as a function of temperature, while the integrated spectral weight can be explained by an isolated dimer model up to 10 K. Analyzing this anomalous spectral line shape...
متن کاملMagnetization plateaux in an extended Shastry-Sutherland model
We study an extended two-dimensional Shastry-Sutherland model in a magnetic field where besides the usual Heisenberg exchanges of the Shastry-Sutherland model two additional SU(2) invariant couplings are included. Perturbative continous unitary transformations are used to determine the leading order effects of the additional couplings on the pure hopping and on the long-range interactions betwe...
متن کاملCrystals of bound states in the magnetization plateaus of the Shastry-Sutherland model.
Using infinite projected entangled-pair states, we show that the Shastry-Sutherland model in an external magnetic field has low-magnetization plateaus which, in contrast to previous predictions, correspond to crystals of bound states of triplets, and not to crystals of triplets. The first sizable plateaus appear at magnetization 1/8, 2/15 and 1/6, in agreement with experiments on the orthogonal...
متن کاملLow-lying magnetic excitation of the Shastry-Sutherland model.
By using perturbation calculation and numerical diagonalization, the low-energy spin dynamics of the Shastry-Sutherland model is investigated with particular attention to the two-particle coherent motion. In addition to spin-singlet- and triplet-bound states, we find novel branches of coherent motion of a bound quintet pair, which are usually unstable because of repulsion. Unusual dispersion ob...
متن کاملGround states of the Ising model on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice and the origin of the fractional magnetization plateaus in rare-earth-metal tetraborides.
A complete and exact solution of the ground-state problem for the Ising model on the Shastry-Sutherland lattice in an applied magnetic field is found. The magnetization plateau at one third of the saturation value is shown to be the only possible fractional plateau in this model. However, stripe magnetic structures with 1/2 and 1/n (n>3) magnetization, observed in the rare-earth-metal tetrabori...
