Specific Heat of Spin Frustrated Sawtooth Chains

Dong Huinin

Published Jan 1, 2014• 0 citations
OpenAlex

Abstract

We use Jordan-Wigner transform and Bogoliubov theory to study specific heat of triangular chains. In the absence of external magnetic field,it shows that doublet-peak structure disappears gradually as specific heat of a frustration system increases,which is due to antiferromagenetic excitation of spins in dimer state. As frustration is set 0. 2 and applied external magenetic field,disappearence of specific heat double structure is due to occurrence of long-range magnetic order.

Consequences of residual-entropy hierarchy violation for behavior of the specific heat capacity in frustrated magnetic systems: An exact theoretical analysis

E. Jurčišinová, Marian Jurčisin

We investigate in detail the influence of the violation of the strict residual-entropy hierarchy among the neighboring ground states of different orders on the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat capacity in the magnetic frustrated systems in the framework of the exactly solvable antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Ising model with the multisite interaction in the presence of the external magnetic field on the zigzag ladder. The exact expressions for the residual entropies of all ground states of the model are found, and it is shown that when the strength of the multisite interaction is strong enough then the model exhibits a quite interesting specific situation, namely, that there exist neighboring plateau ground states together with the single-point ground state that separates them, such that the magnetization properties of all of them are different but their entropy per site is the same and equal to zero. It is shown that this fact of the violation of the strict residual-entropy hierarchy between neighboring ground states of different orders leads to the reduction of the possible number of peaks that can appear in the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat capacity in the corresponding regions of the model parametric space. In addition, it is also shown that the absence of the strict residual-entropy hierarchy among neighboring ground states of different orders changes qualitatively the behavior of the specific heat capacity as a function of the external magnetic field, namely, that the typical field-induced sharp double-peak structure in the low-temperature behavior of the specific heat capacity, which is directly related to the very existence of the highly macroscopically degenerated single-point ground states, disappears already for relatively large values of the temperature.

A Study of the XXZ Antiferromagnetic Double Chain in the External Magnetic Field

Jia Li

The XXZ antiferromagnetic model(spin-1/2)in a transverse field on a double chain with a uniform long-range interactions among the z components of the spins is studied using the the Jordan-Wigner transformation and cut-off approximation.The thermodynamic quantities results like Helmholtz free energy,the internal energy,the magnetization,the specific heat ity are obtained both analytically and numerically.The results in the degenerate condition agree with that from other literatures.

Thermodynamic Properties of the Transverse-Crystal-Field Ising Model on a Chain: -- Three Peak Structure in the Specific Heat --

Y. Fukumoto, Akihide Oguchi

The specific heat of the S = 1 transverse-crystal-field Ising model with an antiferro-magnetic exchange interaction J on a ∆-chain is studied by using the exact-diagonalization, quantum Monte Carlo and finite-temperature Lanczos methods. We find that when the strength of the transverse crystal field Γ is chosen to be sufficiently small, the specific heat exhibits a three-peak structure as a function of temperature, with peaks at T ∼ 0.05Γ, 0.2Γ and 0.7J. In addition to the two energy scales Γ and J, a new energy scale ∼ 0.1 × Γ appears due to the geometrical frustration and the existence of the Sz = 0 states in the present system. Geometrically frustrated spin systems have attracted considerable attention for a long time. It is expected that the introduction of quantum fluctuations into a clas-sically degenerate manifold leads to exotic properties of ground states and thermo-dynamics. From this point of view, S = 1/2 transverse-field Ising antiferromagnets

Spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg distorted diamond chain with antiferromagnetic Ising and ferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions

Bohdan Lisnyi

The exactly solvable spin-1/2 Ising-Heisenberg distorted diamond chain in the presence of the external magnetic field is investigated for the case of antiferromagnetic Ising and ferromagnetic XXZ Heisenberg interactions. The influence of quantum fluctuations and the distortion on the ground state, magnetic and thermal properties of the model are studied in detail.In particular, it is established that the zero-temperature magnetization curve may involve intermediate plateaus just at zero and 1/3 of the saturation magnetization. It is demonstrated that the temperature dependence of the specific heat reveals up to four distinct peaks at zero magnetic field and up to five distinct peaks at a weak magnetic field. The physical origin of all observed additional peaks of the specific heat has been clarified on the grounds of dominating thermal excitations. We have shown that the quantum fluctuations give rise to an effective geometrical frustration in this chain.

Specific heat and susceptibility of S = 1/2 antiferromagnets on square, triangular, and kagome lattices

Chisa Hotta

Abstract We study the temperature dependence of the thermodynamic properties of spin-1/2 antiferromagnets on two-dimensional lattices. Our analysis employs the sine-square deformation (SSD), in which a real-space envelope function is applied to the Hamiltonian so that the local energy scale is smoothly reduced to zero at the system boundaries. The quantum eigenstates of the SSD Hamiltonian exhibit bulk-like behavior near the system center, effectively mimicking the thermodynamic limit even in small finite-size calculations. Using these fictitious bulk states, we compute the energy density, specific heat, and magnetic susceptibility as functions of temperature. We find that both the triangular- and kagome-lattice antiferromagnets show either a shoulder or a pronounced double-peak structure in the low-temperature specific heat, whereas the kagome case particularly shows a strong enhancement of magnetic susceptibility down to the lowest temperature range. These direct comparisons, together with the square-lattice and one-dimensional cases, reveal that although both frustrated systems retain a substantial amount of entropy, the low-energy excitations below ∼ 0.5 J $\sim 0.5J$ of the kagome lattice are predominantly governed by the magnetic excited states, whereas not much for the triangular lattice.

Thermodynamic properties of the Δ-chain model in a uniform magnetic field

Hiromi Otsuka

A numerical approach for calculating an eigenvalue distribution function is developed and it is applied to the study on a fully frustrated spin system called the \ensuremath{\Delta}-chain model. We examine the magnetic-field dependence of the specific heat to clarify the relationship between the highly frustrated spins and the lower-temperature peak which has been extensively investigated by Kubo. Our numerical data show that with the increase of magnetic field, the peak width becomes broader and the height lower. This sensitive dependence should be caused by lowering the high degeneracy of states contributing to the peak formation. On the other hand, we also find that the higher-temperature peak observed commonly in antiferromagnetic quantum spin chains is almost unchanged.
