Abstract

We examine dynamic quantities of a random spin-1/2 isotropic XY chain in a transverse field.The randomness is related to the sign of the nearest-neighbor exchange interaction and can be eliminated by a suitable transformation.As a result, the dynamic quantities for the random spin chain are related to the same dynamic quantities for the homogeneous spin chain.We use the available results for the latter model to discuss the effect of randomness on the dynamic structure factors of the quantum spin chain.

We examine dynamic structure factors of spin-$1∕2$ chains with nearest-neighbor interactions of $XX$ and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya type and with periodic and random changes in the sign of these interactions. This special kind of inhomogeneity can be eliminated from the Hamiltonian by suitable transformation of the spin variables. As a result, the dynamic structure factors of periodic or random chains can be computed from those of the uniform chains. Using the exact analytical and precise numerical results available for the uniform systems, we illustrate the effects of regular alternation or random disorder on dynamic structure factors of quantum spin chains.

Dynamics of Transverse Correlations in Spin-� Isotropic XY Chain with Correlated Lorentzian Disorder

Oleg Derzhko, Taras Krokhmalskii

Using a numerical approach we examine the dynamics of zz correlations for the spin-½ isotropic XY chain with random Lorentzian intersite coupling and transverse field at sites that depends linearly on the neighbouring couplings. We study in detail the wave vector and frequency-dependent zz structure factor for different values of Hamiltonian parameters and temperature. We discuss the changes in the frequency profiles of zz dynamic structure factor caused by the introduced correlated disorder.

Dynamics of transverse correlations in the spin-1/2 isotropic XY chain with a correlated Lorentzian disorder

Oleg Derzhko, Taras Krokhmalskii

Using a numerical approach we examine the dynamics of $zz$ correlations for the spin-$1\over2$ isotropic XY chain with random Lorentzian intersite coupling and transverse field at sites that depends linearly on the neighbouring couplings. We study in detail the wave vector- and frequency-dependent $zz$ structure factor at different values of Hamiltonian parameters and temperature. We discuss the changes in the frequency profiles of the $zz$ dynamic structure factor caused by the introduced correlated disorder.

Dynamic Structure Factors of the Spin-1/2XXChain with Dzyaloshinskii–Moriya Interaction

Oleg Derzhko, Taras Verkholyak

We consider the spin-1/2 isotropic XY chain in a (z) transverse magnetic field with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction directed along the z-axis in spin space and examine the effects of the latter interaction on the zz, xx (yy) and xy (yx) dynamic structure factors. The Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction does not manifest itself in the zz dynamic quantities. In contrast, the xx (yy) and xy (yx) dynamic structure factors show dramatical changes owing to the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. Implications of our results for electron spin resonance experiments are briefly discussed.

Dynamic properties of spin-1/2 XY chains

Oleg Derzhko, Taras Krokhmalskii

We have considered a numerical scheme for the calculation of the equilibrium properties of spin-1/2 XY chains. Within its frames it is necessary to solve in the last resort only the 2N\times 2N eigenvalue and eigenvector problem but not the 2^N\times 2^N one as for an arbitrary system consisting of N spins 1/2. To illustrate the approach we have presented some new results. Namely, the xx dynamic structure factor for the Ising model in transverse field, the density of states for the isotropic chain with random intersite couplings and transverse fields that linearly depend on the surrounding couplings, and the zz dynamic structure factor for the Ising model in random transverse field. The results obtained are hopped to be useful for an interpretation of observable data for one-dimensional spin-1/2 XY substances.

Dynamics of dimer and z spin component fluctuations in spin-1/2 XY chain

Oleg Derzhko, Taras Krokhmalskii, Petro A. Hlushak

One-dimensional quantum spin-1/2 XY models admit the rigorous analysis not only of their static properties (i.e. the thermodynamic quantities and the equal-time spin correlation functions) but also of their dynamic properties (i.e. the different-time spin correlation functions, the dynamic susceptibilities, the dynamic structure factors).This becomes possible after exploiting the Jordan-Wigner transformation which reduces the spin model to a model of spinless noninteracting fermions.A number of dynamic quantities (e.g.related to transverse spin operator or dimer operator fluctuations) are entirely determined by two-fermion excitations and can be examined in much detail.We consider the spin-1/2 XY chain in a transverse ( z) magnetic field with the Hamiltonianand calculate the dynamic structure factorsis the dimer operator.The results for the dynamic transverse structure factor S zz (κ, ω) and for the dynamic dimer structure factor S DD (κ, ω) are known, whereas the analysis of the dynamic structure factor S zD (κ, ω) = (S Dz (κ, ω)) has not been reported so far.We compare different two-fermion dynamic quantities contrasting their generic and specific features.
