Spin dynamics of SrCu2O3 and the Heisenberg ladder.

چکیده
The S = 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet in the ladder geometry is studied as a model for the spin degrees of freedom of SrCu2O3. The susceptibility and the spin echo decay rate are calculated using a quantum Monte Carlo technique, and the spin-lattice relaxation rate is obtained by maximum entropy analytic continuation of imaginary time correlation functions. All calculated quantities are in reasonable agreement with experimental results for SrCu2O3 if the exchange coupling J ≈ 850K, i.e. significantly smaller than in high-Tc cuprates.

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 کاملA Plaquette Basis for the Study of Heisenberg Ladders
We employ a plaquette basis—generated by coupling the four spins in a 2 × 2 lattice to a well-defined total angular momentum—for the study of Heisenberg ladders with antiferromagnetic coupling. Matrix elements of the Hamiltonian in this basis are evaluated using standard techniques in angular-momentum (Racah) algebra. We show by exact diagonalization of small (2 × 4 and 2 × 6) systems that in e...
متن کاملGround state of antiferromagnetic Heisenberg two-leg ladder in terms of the valence-bond solid picture
We have proposed the plaquette-singlet solid (PSS) ground state for the spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg twoleg ladder. Based on the PSS picture, we discuss the correspondence of the PSS state to the valence-bond solid (VBS) state of the ground state of spin-2 chain by introducing an appropriate composite spin picture. When the bond alternation is introduced, there occur quantum phase transi...
متن کاملSpectrum of a magnetized strong-leg quantum spin ladder.
Inelastic neutron scattering is used to measure the spin excitation spectrum of the Heisenberg S=1/2 ladder material (C7H10N)2CuBr4 in its entirety, both in the gapped spin liquid and the magnetic field-induced Tomonaga-Luttinger spin liquid regimes. A fundamental change of the spin dynamics is observed between these two regimes. Density matrix renormalization group calculations quantitatively ...
متن کاملExactly Solvable Su(n ) Mixed Spin Ladders *
It is shown that solvable mixed spin ladder models can be constructed from su(N) permutators. Heisenberg rung interactions appear as chemical potential terms in the Bethe Ansatz solution. Explicit examples given are a mixed spin-1 2 spin-1 ladder, a mixed spin-1 2 spin-3 2 ladder and a spin-1 ladder with biquadratic interactions.
