چکیده

We have studied the two-dimensional S=1/2 square-lattice antiferromagnet Cu(pz)_{2}(ClO4)_{2} (where pz denotes pyrazine), using neutron inelastic scattering and series expansion calculations. We show that the presence of antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor interactions enhances quantum fluctuations associated with resonating valence bonds. Intermediate magnetic fields lead to a selective tuning of resonating valence bonds and a spectacular inversion of the zone-boundary dispersion, providing novel insight into 2D antiferromagnetism in the quantum limit.

Low-Temperature Properties of the Quantum Heisenberg Antiferromagnet on Some One-Dimensional Lattices Containing Equilateral Triangles

We consider the quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet in a magnetic field on two one-dimensional lattices containing equilateral triangles (a chain of corner-sharing double tetrahedra and a frustrated three-leg ladder) which support localized-magnon states. By mapping of the localized-magnon degrees of freedom on a classical lattice gas we obtain high-field thermodynamic quantities of the models a...

5 J an 2 00 1 Magnetic and thermodynamic properties of Li 2 VOSiO 4 : a two - dimensional S = 1 / 2 frustrated antiferromagnet on a square lattice

NMR, μSR, magnetization and specific heat measurements in Li2VOSiO4 powders and single crystals are reported. Specific heat and magnetization measurements evidence that Li2VOSiO4 is a frustrated two-dimensional S = 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice with a superexchange coupling J1, along the sides of the square, almost equal to J2, the one along the diagonal (J2/J1 = 1.1 ± 0.1 ...

Quantum Fluctuations in the Frustrated Antiferromagnet Sr2Cu3O4Cl2

Abstract Sr2Cu3O4Cl2 is an antiferromagnet consisting of weakly coupled CuO planes which comprise two weakly interacting antiferromagnetic subsystems, I and II, which order at respective temperatures TI ≈ 390K and TII ≈ 40K. Except asymptotically near the ordering temperature, these systems are good representations of the two-dimensional quantum spin 1/2 Heisenberg model. For T < TII there are ...

Se p 20 06 Two - dimensional frustrated spin systems in high magnetic fields

We discuss our numerical results on the properties of the S = 1/2 frustrated J1-J2 Heisenberg model on a square lattice as a function of temperature and frustration angle φ = tan −1 (J2/J1) in an applied magnetic field. We cover the full phase diagram of the model in the range −π ≤ φ ≤ π. The discussion includes the parameter dependence of the saturation field itself, and addresses the instabil...

Frustrated Quantum Antiferromagnets: Application of High-order Coupled Cluster Method

We report on recent results for strongly frustrated quantum J1–J2 antiferromagnets in dimensionality d = 1, 2, 3 obtained by the coupled cluster method (CCM). We demonstrate that the CCM in high orders of approximation allows us to investigate quantum phase transitions driven by frustration and to discuss novel quantum ground states. In detail we consider the ground-state properties of (i) the ...
