چکیده

Motivated by various spin-1/2 compounds like Cs2CuCl4 or κ-(BEDTTTF)2Cu2(CN)3, we derive a Raman-scattering operator à la Shastry and Shraiman for various geometries. For T=0, the exact spectra is computed by Lanczos algorithm for finite-size clusters. We perform a systematic investigation as a function of J2/J1, the exchange constant ratio: ranging from J2 = 0, the well known square-lattice case, to J2/J1 = 1 the isotropic triangular lattice. We discuss the polarization dependence of the spectra and show how it can be used to detect precursors of the instabilities of the ground state against quantum fluctuations.

Magnetocaloric effect in two-dimensional spin-1/2 antiferromagnets

The magnetocaloric effect is studied at the transition to saturation in the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the simplest two-dimensional lattices, namely the square and the triangular lattice. Numerical results are presented for the entropy which are consistent with identical universal properties. However, the absolute values of the entropy are bigger on the geometrically frustra...

Theory of Raman scattering in one-dimensional quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnets.

We study theoretically the Raman-scattering spectra in the one-dimensional (1D) quantum spin-1/2 antiferromagnets. The analysis reveals that their low-energy dynamics is exquisitely sensitive to various perturbations to the Heisenberg chain with nearest-neighbor exchange interactions, such as magnetic anisotropy, longer-range exchange interactions, and bond dimerization. These weak interactions...

Raman spectra of two-dimensional spin-$ Heisenberg antiferromagnets

The Raman spectrum of two-dimensional spin-$ Heisenberg antiferromagnets is calculated by exactly diagonalizing clusters of up to 26 sites. The obtained spectra are compared to experimental results for various high-T, precursors, such as La,CuO, and YBa,Cu,O,,. In spite of good agreement in the position of the main excitation in the B rg channel, i.e, the two-magnon peak around 0.4 eV, an addit...

Spin - 12 quantum antiferromagnets on the triangular latticeP

The spin-1 2 anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnet is studied at T = 0 on the triangular lattice via numerical diagonalization for system sizes up to N = 36 sites. Extrapolation to the thermodynamic limit suggests that the isotropic system possesses no, or very small, p 3 p 3 magnetic order; no helical or chiral order; and spin-spin correlations consistent with that of a critical phase. For XY...

Unconventional dynamics in triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet NaCrO2.

We report magnetization, specific heat, muon spin rotation, and Na NMR measurements on the S=3/2 rhombohedrally stacked Heisenberg antiferromagnet NaCrO2. This compound appears to be a good candidate for the study of isotropic triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnets with very weak interlayer coupling. While specific heat and magnetization measurements indicate the onset of a transition in the ra...
