Impurities and Quantum Interference in the Chains of YBa2Cu3O6+x

Dirk K. Morr, Alexander V. Balatsky

Motivated by recent experiments, we study the electronic structure near impurities in the chains of YBa2Cu3O6+x. Using a model of proximity induced chain superconductivity, we show that a resonance state in the chain density of states is induced only by a magnetic impurity. The spatial form of the resonance reflects the particle-hole nature of chain superconductivity and therefore distinguishes it from other broken symmetry phases. Because of quantum interference effects between impurities, the chains can undergo a quantum phase transition into a polarized state.

Low-energy dynamics of a magnetic impurity in a quantum spin chain: Role of local levels

Andrei A. Zvyagin

The characteristics of the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), the contributions to the spin-lattice relaxation rate, and Knight shift of the resonance position are calculated exactly for a model spin-$1/2$ $XY$ chain with the magnetic impurity. It is shown that the deviations of the impurity's coupling to the chain and the effective impurity's $g$ factor from the values in the host spin chain yield special features in the temperature and magnetic field behavior for these NMR characteristics. The role of impurity-induced local levels in the NMR low-energy spin dynamics of spin chains is determined.

NMR relaxation rate of a quantum spin chain with an impurity

Andrei A. Zvyagin

The relaxation rate of the nuclear magnetic resonance is calculated exactly for a model spin-1/2 chain with the magnetic impurity. It is shown that the deviations of the impurity’s coupling to the chain and the effective impurity’s g-factor from the values of the host chain yield special features in the temperature and magnetic field behavior for the relaxation rate.

The characteristics of the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), the contributions to the spin-lattice relaxation rate, and Knight shift of the resonance position are calculated exactly for a model spin-1/21/21/2 XYXYXY chain with the magnetic impurity. It is shown that the deviations of the impurity's coupling to the chain and the effective impurity's ggg factor from the values in the host spin chain yield special features in the temperature and magnetic field behavior for these NMR characteristics. The role of impurity-induced local levels in the NMR low-energy spin dynamics of spin chains is determined.
