Dimensional Crossover in Quasi-one-dimensional Spin-1 Heisenberg Antiferromagnets

Published Aug 14, 2016• 3 citations

Abstract

We study the quenching of the Haldane gap in quasi-one-dimensional systems of weakly coupled spin-1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains. The critical interchain coupling Jc required to stabilize long range magnetic order can be accurately determined from large scale quantum Monte Carlo calculations. Several different geometries of coupled chains are studied, illustrating the dependence of Jc on the coordination of chains. For bipartite geometries, ferromagnetically coupled chains yield similar magnitudes for Jc.

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.

Order-disorder quantum phase transition in the quasi-one-dimensional spin-1/2 collinear antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model

S. Rufo, Griffith Mendonça, J. A. Plascak +1 more

The ground-state properties of the quasi-one-dimensional spin-$1/2$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model is investigated by using a variational method. Spins on chains along the $x$ direction are antiferromagnetically coupled with exchange $J>0$, while spins between chains in the $y$ direction are coupled either ferromagnetically (${J}^{\ensuremath{'}}<0$) or antiferromagnetically (${J}^{\ensuremath{'}}>0$). The staggered and the colinear antiferromagnetic magnetizations are computed and their dependence on the anisotropy parameter $\ensuremath{\lambda}=|{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}|/J$ is analyzed. It is found that an infinitesimal interchain coupling parameter is sufficient to stabilize a long-range order with either a staggered magnetization ${m}_{s}$ (${J}^{\ensuremath{'}}>0$) or a colinear antiferromagnetic magnetization ${m}_{caf}$ (${J}^{\ensuremath{'}}<0$), both behaving as $\ensuremath{\simeq}{\ensuremath{\lambda}}^{1/2}$ for $\ensuremath{\lambda}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}0$.

Quenching the Haldane Gap in Spin-1 Heisenberg Antiferromagnets

Keola Wierschem, Pinaki Sengupta

We consider a quasi-one-dimensional system of spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chains in two-dimensional and three-dimensional hypercubic lattices with interchain coupling J and uniaxial single-ion anisotropy D. Using large-scale numerical simulations, we map out the J-D phase diagram and investigate the low-lying excitations of the Haldane phase in the J≪1 limit. We also provide direct evidence that the Haldane phase remains a nontrivial symmetry-protected topological state for small but finite J.

Phase Diagram ofS=1/2 Quasi-One-Dimensional Heisenberg Model with Dimerized Antiferromagnetic Exchange

Nobuyuki Katoh, Masatoshi Imada

The quantum phase transition between a spin gap state and an antiferromagnetic phase is investigated. We study S =1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains coupled by antiferromagnetic interchain interaction. The intrachain exchanges have alternating strength. The phase boundary between the antiferromagnetically ordered phase and a spin gap phase is also obtained in a parameter space of the amplitude of the interchain coupling and the dimerization. The spin-wave approximation substantially overestimates the antiferromagnetic phase. The competition between the long range order and the spin gap is examined in detail. We estimate a variety of critical exponents at the transition, namely, exponents ν, θ and z defined as the exponent of the correlation length, the magnetization curve and the dynamical exponent, respectively. From the quantum Monte Carlo simulation, the exponents ν, θ and z are estimated to be unity. The exponents ν and θ are different from the estimated values in one dimension. It suggests that the universality changes due to the dimensionality change. In our estimates, the exponent ν does not agree with the prediction from three dimensional classical Heisenberg model. We also discuss the relevance of our result to spin-Peierls systems with lattice distortion.

Characterizing the Haldane phase in quasi-one-dimensional spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnets

Keola Wierschem, Pinaki Sengupta

We review the basic properties of the Haldane phase in spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chains, including its persistence in quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) geometries. Using large-scale numerical simulations, we map out the phase diagram for a realistic model applicable to experimental Haldane compounds. We also investigate the effect of different chain coupling geometries and confirm a general mean-field universality of the critical coupling times the coordination number of the lattice. Inspired by recent developments in the characterization of symmetry protected topological (SPT) states, of which the Haldane phase of the spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain is a preeminent example, we provide direct evidence that the Q1D Haldane phase is indeed a nontrivial SPT state.
