Magnetic behaviour of doped quantum antiferromagnetic model on one-dimensional lattice in the strong correlation regime and application to chained cuprates

Abstract

The magnetic correlation in one-dimensional doped quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets is investigated on the basis of the single band t-J model at zero temperature in the strong correlation limit. An analytical expression for the generalized spin stiffness constant corresponding to this model is derived and then stiffness constant is numerically studied as a function of doping concentration. The presence of a maximum in the plot of this theoretically obtained total stiffness constant as a function of doping concentration, occurring at a finite doping, suggests the emergence of a tendency to form a new magnetic ordering of itinerant nature in the system in the low doping region and it's disappearance as the doping is increased further. This prediction of ours is quite novel and may be directly tested by independent experiments in future. Our results for spin stiffness constant are compared with those for the effective exchange constant extracted from the available experimental results obtained so far from the chains of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ at low temperature and they show very similar behaviour as a function of doping concentration. This firmly establishes the role of spin stiffness constant as effective exchange constant for strongly correlated semi-itinerant systems in one-dimension. Our results in general receive good support from those based on other theoretical approaches.

Spin stiffness of strongly correlated doped quantum antiferromagnet on 2-dimensional lattices and it's connection with effective exchange constant for a semi- itinerant system

Suraka Bhattacharjee, Ranjan Chaudhury

The generalized spin stiffness constant for a doped quantum antiferromagnet has been investigated both analytically and numerically as a function of doping concentration at zero temperature, based on the strongly correlated t-J model on two-dimensional square lattice. The nature of the theoretical dependence of the stiffness constant on doping shows a striking similarity with that of the effective exchange constant, obtained from the combination of other theoretical and experimental techniques in the low doping region. This correspondence once again establishes that spin stiffness can very well play the role of an effective exchange constant even in the strongly correlated semi-itinerant systems. Our theoretical plot of the stiffness constant against doping concentration in the whole doping region exhibits the various characteristic features like a possible crossover in the higher doping regions and persistence of short range ordering even for very high doping with the complete vanishing of spin stiffness occurring only close to 100% doping. Our results receive very good support from various other theoretical approaches and also brings out a few limitations of some of them. Our detailed analysis highlights the crucial importance of the study of spin stiffness for the proper understanding of magnetic correlations in a semi-itinerant magnetic system described by the strongly correlated t-J model. Moreover, our basic formalism can also be utilized for determination of the effective exchange constant and magnetic correlations for itinerant magnetic systems, in general in a novel way.

Studies of the spin diffusion coefficient and the spin stiffness constant for thet–Jmodel on low-dimensional lattices and possible application to doped antiferromagnets

Ranjan Chaudhury

The spin response functions for a doped strongly correlated quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet, in the form of a t – J model, on low-dimensional lattices have been explored. In particular, the spin stiffness constant and the spin diffusion coefficient have been calculated as functions of doping concentration by different approaches for this model on a chain and on a square lattice. The occurrences of various possible magnetic phases, namely with long range and short range orders, and also a novel paramagnetic phase, have been predicted at zero temperature. Our conclusions regarding the phase diagram agree remarkably well with those from other recent theoretical approaches. Our results are discussed in the light of experimental results from the cuprates.

Study of effective coupling between charge degrees of freedom in low dimensional hole-doped quantum antiferromagnets

Suraka Bhattacharjee, Ranjan Chaudhury

Expressions for the generalized charge stiffness constant at zero temperature are derived corresponding to low-dimensional hole-doped quantum antiferromagnets, describable by the t–J-like models, with a view to understanding fermionic pairing possibilities and charge couplings in itinerant antiferromagnetic systems. A detailed comparison between spin and charge correlations and couplings are presented for the strong and weak coupling limits in one (1D) and two (2D) dimensions. The result highlights that the charge and spin couplings show very similar behaviour in the over-doped region in both dimensions, whereas they show a completely different trend in the lower doping regimes. A qualitative equivalence of the generalized charge stiffness constant with the effective Drude weight and Coulomb interaction is established based on the comparison with other theoretical and experimental results. The fall in charge stiffness with increase in doping then implies a reduction in magnitude of the effective Coulomb repulsion between the mobile carriers. This leads to an enhanced possibility of fermionic pairing with an increase in doping concentration, in the possible presence of some other attraction-producing mechanism from a source outside the t–J-like models. Moreover, under certain conditions in the optimal doping region, the t–J-like models themselves are able to produce an attractive interaction for pairing.

Spin correlations and magnetic susceptibilities of lightly doped antiferromagnets

F. Carvalho Dias, Iveta R. Pimentel

We calculate the spin correlation function and the magnetic longitudinal and transverse susceptibilities of a two-dimensional antiferromagnet doped with a small concentration of holes, in the $t\text{\ensuremath{-}}J$ model. We find that the motion of holes generates spin fluctuations that add to the quantum fluctuations, the spin correlations decaying with the inverse of the spin distance, while increasing with doping as the critical hole concentration, where the long-range order disappears, is approached. Moreover, the longitudinal susceptibility becomes finite in the presence of doping due to the strong damping effects induced by the hole motion, while the transverse susceptibility is renormalized by softening effects. Both the longitudinal and transverse susceptibilities increase with doping, the former more significantly than the latter. Our results imply that doping destroys the long-range order while local antiferromagnetic spin correlations persist. This is consistent with experiments on doped copper oxide superconductors.

Dynamics of strong-coupling models for cuprate superconductors: Exact results on finite lattices

H. B. Schuettler, C.-X. Chen, A. J. Fedro

We discuss recent applications of exact numerical continued fraction expansion (CFE) techniques to calculate dynamical correlation functions of various strong-coupling models related to the high-temperature cuprate superconductors. For the two-dimensional square-lattice spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet, we present exact results for the zero-temperature dynamical structure factor on finite-sized lattices and compare them to approximate results from a Schwinger boson mean-field theory, recently proposed by Arovas and Auerbach. We find that the mean-field theory represents a very good approximation to the exact spin excitation spectra and to the static spin correlations. We then investigation the dynamical spin-spin structure factor and the single-particle spectral function for finite model clusters with dopant induced hole-type charge carriers, in the strong-coupling limit of both the single-band Hubbard model (t-J-model) and the three-band Hubbard model (Kondo-Heisenberg model). Our results are consistent with the physical picture recently proposed by Zhang and Rice which implies an approximate mapping of the low-energy states in the three-band model onto an effective single-band theory. 33 refs., 4 figs.

Weakly Coupled Antiferromagnetic Quantum Spin Chains

Ziqiang Wang

Quasi-one-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets formed by a $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice of weakly coupled spin- $\frac{1}{2}$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains are studied by combining exact results in one-dimension and renormalization group analyses of the interchain correlations. It is shown that $d$-dimensional magnetic long-range order develops at zero temperature for infinitesimal antiferromagnetic or ferromagnetic interchain couplings. In the presence of weak bond alternations, the order-disorder transition occurs at a finite interchain coupling. Relevances to the lightly doped quantum antiferromagnets and multilayer quantum Hall systems are discussed.
