Antiferromagnetically coupled alternating spin chains

A. E. Trumper, C. J. Gazza

The effect of antiferromagnetic interchain coupling in alternating spin-(1,1/2) chains is studied by means of spin-wave theory and density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG). In particular, two limiting cases are investigated, the two-leg ladder and its two-dimensional (2D) generalization. Results of the ground-state properties like energy, spin gap, magnetizations, and correlation functions are reported for the whole range of the interchain coupling ${J}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}.$ For the 2D case the spin-wave results predict a smooth dimensional crossover from 1D to 2D keeping the ground state always ordered. For the ladder system, the DMRG results show that any ${J}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}>0$ drives the system to a gapped ground state. Furthermore the behavior of the correlation functions closely resemble the uniform spin-1/2 ladder. For ${J}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}$ lower than 0.3, however, the gap behaves quadratically as $\ensuremath{\Delta}\ensuremath{\sim}{0.6J}_{\ensuremath{\perp}}^{2}.$ Finally, it is argued that the behavior of the spin gap for an arbitrary number of mixed coupled spin chains is analogous to that of the uniform spin-1/2 chains.

Density-matrix renormalization-group studies of the alternating Hubbard model

Hanbin Pang, Shoudan Liang

Discrepancies between the single-particle band structure and the exact many-particle behavior are particularly striking in one-dimensional systems. The one-dimensional alternating Hubbard model is especially interesting as a nontrivial model for conjugated polymer chains, such as polyacetelyne. We study this model for chains of 60 sites using the density-matrix renormalization-group method. We obtain the first electronic and magnetic excited-state energies at half filling as a function of an alternating hopping parameter and on-site electron-electron interaction. We also study the effect of the interaction on the dimerization and discuss its relation to the charge gap and spin triplet gap. In addition, we calculate the local spin and charge densities of some excited states, which manifest a clear crossover from bandlike to strongly correlated behavior.

Spin Depolarization of a Quantum Particle on a Liner Chain with Alternating Larmor Frequencies

K. W. Kehr, Kazuo Kitahara

The spin depolarization of a particle on a linear chain with alternating Larmor frequencies is considered. The particle is initially prepared at one site with polarized spin. A crossover from initially classical behavior to an asymptotic polarization is found, as a consequence of quantum-mechanical tunneling. The influence of dynamic fluctuations on the spin depolarization is studied in the frame of the Haken-Strobl model.
