Dynamical structure factor for Haldane-gap antiferromagnets

Julia Mihailowa Wesselinowa

Published Jan 1, 1999• 0 citations
Publisher

Abstract

The dynamical properties of a spin-1 chain with single-ion easy-plane anisotropy are studied by a Green's function technique. The longitudinal and transverse dynamical structure factors (DSFs) have been obtained from the imaginary part of the Green's functions. The static DSFs as a function of the momentum are numerically calculated.

Dynamical properties of a Haldane-gap antiferromagnet

O. Golinelli, Th. Jolicœur, R. Lacaze

The authors study the dynamic spin correlation function of a spin-1 antiferromagnetic chain with easy-plane single-ion anisotropy. They use exact diagonalization by the Lanczos method for chains of length up to N=16 spins. They show that a single-mode approximation is an excellent description of the dynamical properties. A variational calculation allows them to clarify the nature of the excitations. The existence of a two-particle continuum near-zero wavevector is clearly seen, both in finite-size effects and in the dynamical structure factor. The recent neutron scattering experiments on the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet NENP are fully explained by the results.

Dynamical properties of S=1 bond-alternating Heisenberg chains in transverse magnetic fields

Takahumi Suzuki, Sei-ichiro Suga

We calculate dynamical structure factors of the $S=1$ bond-alternating Heisenberg chain with a single-ion anisotropy in transverse magnetic fields, using a continued fraction method based on the Lanczos algorithm. In the Haldane-gap phase and the dimer phase, dynamical structure factors show characteristic field dependence. Possible interpretations are discussed in the viewpoint of the field dependence of the excitation continuum. The numerical results are in qualitative agreement with recent results for inelastic neutron-scattering experiments on the $S=1$ bond-alternating Heisenberg-chain compound $\mathrm{Ni}({\mathrm{C}}_{9}{\mathrm{D}}_{24}{\mathrm{N}}_{4})(\mathrm{N}{\mathrm{O}}_{2})\mathrm{Cl}{\mathrm{O}}_{4}$ and the $S=1$ Haldane-gap compound $\mathrm{Ni}{({\mathrm{C}}_{5}{\mathrm{D}}_{14}{\mathrm{N}}_{2})}_{2}{\mathrm{N}}_{3}(\mathrm{P}{\mathrm{F}}_{6})$ in transverse magnetic fields.

The two-spinon transverse structure factor of the gapped Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain

Jean-Sébastien Caux, Jorn Mossel, Isaac Pérez Castillo

We consider the transverse dynamical structure factor of the anisotropic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain ( XXZ model) in the gapped antiferromagnetic regime (Δ>1). Specializing to the case of zero field, we use two independent approaches based on integrability (one valid for finite size, the other for the infinite lattice) to obtain the exact two-spinon part of this correlator. We discuss in particular its asymmetry with respect to the π/2-momentum line, its overall anisotropy dependence, and its contribution to sum rules.

Single-ion anisotropy in Haldane chains and the form factor of the O(3) nonlinear sigma model

Shunsuke C. Furuya, Takafumi J. Suzuki, Shintaro Takayoshi +2 more

We consider spin-1 Haldane chains with single-ion anisotropy, which exists in known Haldane chain materials. We develop a perturbation theory in terms of anisotropy, where the magnon-magnon interaction is important even in the low-temperature limit. The exact two-particle form factor in the $O(3)$ nonlinear sigma model leads to quantitative predictions on several dynamical properties, including the dynamical structure factor and electron-spin-resonance frequency shift. These agree very well with numerical results, and with experimental data on the Haldane chain material Ni(C${}_{5}$H${}_{14}$N${}_{2}$)${}_{2}$N${}_{3}$(PF${}_{6}$).

Finite-temperature dynamic structure factor of the spin-1 XXZ chain with single-ion anisotropy

Florian Lange, Satoshi Ejima, Holger Fehske

Improving matrix-product state techniques based on the purification of the density matrix, we are able to accurately calculate the finite-temperature dynamic response of the infinite spin-1 $\text{XXZ}$ chain with single-ion anisotropy in the Haldane, large-$D$, and antiferromagnetic phases. Distinct thermally activated scattering processes make a significant contribution to the spectral weight in all cases. In the Haldane phase, intraband magnon scattering is prominent, and the on-site anisotropy causes the magnon to split into singlet and doublet branches. In the large-$D$ phase response, the intraband signal is separated from an exciton-antiexciton continuum. In the antiferromagnetic phase, holons are the lowest-lying excitations, with a gap that closes at the transition to the Haldane state. At finite temperatures, scattering between domain-wall excitations becomes especially important and strongly enhances the spectral weight for momentum transfer $\ensuremath{\pi}$.

Spin dynamics of the anisotropic spin-1 antiferromagnetic chain at finite magnetic fields

Yousef Rahnavard, Wolfram Brenig

We present results of a study of the antiferromagnetic spin-1 chain, subject to the simultaneous presence of single-ion anisotropy and external magnetic fields. Using a quantum Monte Carlo calculation based on the stochastic series expansion method, we first uncover a rich quantum phase diagram comprising N\'eel, Haldane, Luttinger-liquid, and large-anisotropy phases. Second, we scan across this phase diagram over a wide range of parameters, evaluating the transverse dynamic structure factor, which we show to exhibit sharp massive modes as well as multiparticle continua. For vanishing anisotropy and fields, comparison with existing results from other analytic and numerical approaches shows convincing consistency.
