Singlet quantum phases and magnetization of the frustrated spin-1/2 ladder with ferromagnetic (F) exchange in legs and alternating F-AF exchange in rungs

Chatterjee, Monalisa, Manoranjan Kumar, Z. G. Soos

The magnetization $M(h)$ is used to identify three singlet quantum phases of the ladder with isotropic exchange interactions. The Dimer phase with frustrated F exchanges in rungs and legs has a first-order $M(h)$ transition at $0$ K from singlet to ferromagnetic at the saturation field $h_s$. The Haldane-DAF phase with strong F exchange in rungs and net AF exchange between rungs has continuous $M(h)$ and is adiabatically connected to the $S = 1$ Heisenberg AF chain. The AF phase with strong F exchange in legs and net AF exchange between legs has continuous $M(h)$ and is adiabatically connected to the spin-1/2 $J_1-J_2$ model with $J_1 > 0$ and $J_2 < 0$. All three singlet phases have finite gaps to the lowest triplet state.

Quantum phases of frustrated two-leg spin- 12 ladders with skewed rungs

Geetanjali Giri, Dayasindhu Dey, Manoranjan Kumar +2 more

The quantum phases of two-leg spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ ladders with skewed rungs are obtained using exact diagonalization of systems with up to 26 spins and by density-matrix renormalization-group calculations to 500 spins. The ladders have isotropic antiferromagnetic (AF) exchange ${J}_{2}>0$ between first neighbors in the legs, variable isotropic AF exchange ${J}_{1}$ between some first neighbors in different legs, and an unpaired spin per odd-membered ring when ${J}_{1}\ensuremath{\gg}{J}_{2}$. Ladders with skewed rungs and variable ${J}_{1}$ have frustrated AF interactions leading to multiple quantum phases: AF at small ${J}_{1}$, either ferromagnetic or AF at large ${J}_{1}$, as well as bond-order-wave phases or reentrant AF (singlet) phases at intermediate ${J}_{1}$.

Quantum phase diagram of a frustrated spin- 12 system on a trellis ladder

Debasmita Maiti, Manoranjan Kumar

We study an isotropic Heisenberg spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ model on a trellis ladder which is composed of two ${J}_{1}\ensuremath{-}{J}_{2}$ zigzag ladders interacting through antiferromagnetic rung coupling ${J}_{3}$. ${J}_{1}$ and ${J}_{2}$ are ferromagnetic zigzag spin interaction between two legs and antiferromagnetic interaction along each leg of a zigzag ladder. A quantum phase diagram of this model is constructed using the density matrix renormalization group method and linearized spin-wave analysis. In the small ${J}_{2}$ limit, a short-range striped collinear phase is found in the presence of ${J}_{3}$, whereas, in the large ${J}_{2}/{J}_{3}$ limit, a noncollinear quasi-long-range phase is found. The system shows a short-range noncollinear state in the large ${J}_{3}$ limit. The short-range-order phase is the dominant feature of this phase diagram. We also show that the results obtained by DMRG and linearized spin-wave analysis show a similar phase boundary between the collinear striped and noncollinear short-range phases, and the collinear phase region shrinks with increasing ${J}_{3}$. We apply this model to understand the magnetic properties of ${\mathrm{CaV}}_{2}{\mathrm{O}}_{5}$ and also fit the experimental data of susceptibility and magnetization. We note that ${J}_{3}$ is a dominant interaction in this material, whereas ${J}_{1}$ and ${J}_{2}$ are approximately half of ${J}_{3}$. The variation of magnetic specific heat capacity as a function of temperature for various external magnetic fields is also predicted.

The magnetization M(h)M(h)M(h) is used to identify three singlet quantum phases of the ladder with isotropic exchange interactions. The Dimer phase with frustrated F exchanges in rungs and legs has a first-order M(h)M(h)M(h) transition at 000 K from singlet to ferromagnetic at the saturation field hsh_shs​. The Haldane-DAF phase with strong F exchange in rungs and net AF exchange between rungs has continuous M(h)M(h)M(h) and is adiabatically connected to the S=1S = 1S=1 Heisenberg AF chain. The AF phase with strong F exchange in legs and net AF exchange between legs has continuous M(h)M(h)M(h) and is adiabatically connected to the spin-1/2 J1−J2J_1-J_2J1​−J2​ model with J1>0J_1 > 0J1​>0 and J2<0J_2 < 0J2​<0. All three singlet phases have finite gaps to the lowest triplet state.
