Magnetic susceptibility of the body-centred orthorhombic La2CuO4 system

چکیده
Abstract. A model Hamiltonian representing the Cu spins in La2CuO4 in its lowtemperature body-centred orthorhombic phase, that includes both spin-orbit generated Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions and interplanar exchange, is examined within the RPA utilizing a Tyablikov decoupling of various high-order Green’s functions. The magnetic susceptibility is evaluated as a function of temperature and the parameters quantifying these interactions, and compared to recently obtained experimental data of Lavrov, Ando and collaborators. An effective Hamiltonian corresponding to a simple tetragonal structure is shown to reproduce both the magnon spectra and the susceptibility of the more complicated body-centred orthorhombic model.

First-principles periodic calculation of four-body spin terms in high-Tc cuprate superconductors.
A general mapping between the energy of pertinent magnetic solutions and the diagonal terms of the spin Hamiltonian in a local representation provides the first general framework to extract accurate values for the many body terms of extended spin Hamiltonians from periodic first-principle calculations. Estimates of these terms for La2CuO4, the paradigm of high-Tc superconductor parent compounds...
متن کاملOrigin of magnetic coupling in La2CuO4.
The ab initio cluster model approach has been used to study the origin of the magnetic coupling in La2CuO4 and, also, its pressure dependence. Use of different cluster models and different ab initio wave functions permits the identification of the three leading mechanisms of magnetic coupling. These are the delocalization of the magnetic orbitals into the anion ‘‘p’’ band, the electronic correl...
