Weak-coupling approach to hole-dopedS=1 Haldane systems

Abstract

As a weak-coupling analogue of hole-doped S=1 Haldane systems, we study two models for coupled chains via Hund coupling; coupled Hubbard chains, and a Hubbard chain coupled with an S=1/2 Heisenberg chain. The fixed point properties of these models are investigated by using bosonization and renormalization group methods. The effect of randomness on these fixed points is also studied. It is found that the presence of the disorder parameter inherent in the Haldane state in the former model suppresses the Anderson localization for weak randomness, and stabilizes the Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid state with the spin gap.

Effect of Hund coupling on one-dimensional Luttinger liquids

H. C. Lee, Shuhui Yang

Two one-dimensional Luttinger liquid systems coupled by Hund coupling are studied by the renormalization-group and non-Abelian bosonization methods. It is found that the Hund coupling is always relevant irrespective of the repulsive interaction between electrons within each chain. The properties of the resulting strong coupling fixed point are discussed.

Luther-Emery liquid and dominant singlet superconductivity in the hole-doped Haldane spin-1 chain

Pontus Laurell, J. Herbrych, Gonzalo Álvarez +1 more

We investigate the pairing tendencies in the hole-doped Haldane spin-1 chain. To allow for doping, we extend the original spin chain Hamiltonian into a fermionic model involving a two-orbital Hubbard chain at intermediate or strong repulsive interaction strengths $U$ and for degenerate orbitals. At half filling and large $U$, the ferromagnetic Hund's coupling, ${J}_{\mathrm{H}}$, generates effective spin-1 moments, with antiferromagnetic correlations between sites. Using large-scale density matrix renormalization group calculations, we accurately study the system's behavior under light hole-doping. For $U=1.6$ in units of the noninteracting bandwidth and for ${J}_{\mathrm{H}}/U\ensuremath{\gtrsim}0.275$, we find that singlet pairing dominates the long-distance physics, establishing this system as a promising platform for repulsively mediated superconductivity. We provide concrete examples of materials that could realize the physics described here. We also provide evidence that the system approaches a Luther-Emery liquid state at large system sizes, reminiscent of the behavior of doped one-orbital two-leg ladders at weak coupling, which also have superconducting tendencies. The numerically calculated central charge approaches one in the thermodynamic limit, indicating a single gapless mode as is expected for the Luther-Emery state. Exponents characterizing the power-law decays of singlet pair-pair and charge density-density correlations are determined, and found to approximately satisfy the Luther-Emery identity.

A single-chain analysis of doped quasi-one-dimensional spin-1 compounds: paramagnetic versus doping

Michele Fabrizio, R. Mélin

We present a numerical study of single-chain models of doped spin-1 compounds. We use low-energy effective one-dimensional models for both the cases of paramagnetic and spin-1/2 doping. In the case of paramagnetic doping, the effective model is equivalent to the bond disordered spin-1/2 chain model recently analysed by means of the real space renormalization group by Hyman and Yang. By means of exact diagonalizations in the XX limit, we confirm the stability of the Haldane phase for weak disorder. Above a critical amount of disorder, the effective model flows to the so-called random singlet fixed point. In the case of spin-1/2 doping, we argue that the Haldane phase should be destabilized even for weak disorder. This picture is not in contradiction with existing experimental data. We also discuss the possible occurrence of (unobserved) antiferromagnetically ordered phases.

Effects of disorder on two coupled Hubbard chains at half-filling

Satoshi Fujimoto, Norio Kawakami

We investigate the effects of quenched disorder on two-chain Hubbard models at half-filling by using bosonization and renormalization-group methods. It is found that the sufficiently strong forward scattering due to impurities and the random gauge field, which is generated by impurity backward scattering, destroy the charge gaps as well as the spin gaps. Random backward scattering due to impurities then drives the resulting massless phase to the Anderson localization phase. For intermediate strength of random forward scattering, however, the spin gaps still survive, and only one of the charge gaps is collapsed. In this parameter region, one of the charge degrees of freedom is in the Anderson localized state, while the other one is still in the massive state.

Impurities ins=1 Heisenberg antiferromagnets

Erik Schwartz Sørensen, Ian K. Affleck

The s=1 Heisenberg antiferromagnet is studied in the presence of two kinds of local impurities. First, a perturbed antiferromagnetic bond with J'\ensuremath{\ne}J at the center of an even-length open chain is considered. Using the density-matrix renormalization-group method we find that, for sufficiently strong or weak J', a bound state is localized at the impurity site, giving rise to an energy level in the Haldane gap. The energy of the bound state is in agreement with perturbative results, based on s=1/2 chain-end excitations, both in the weak- and strong-coupling limit. In a region around the uniform limit, J'=J, no states are found with energy below the Haldane gap. Second, a s=1/2 impurity at the center of an otherwise even-length open chain is considered. The coupling to the s=1/2 impurity is varied. Bound states in the Haldane gap are found only for sufficiently weak (antiferromagnetic) coupling. For a s=1/2 impurity coupled with a strong (antiferromagnetic) bond, no states are found in the Haldane gap. Our results are in good qualitative agreement with recent experiments on doped NENP and ${\mathrm{Y}}_{2}$${\mathrm{BaNiO}}_{5}$.

Low-energy fixed points of random Heisenberg models

Yu‐Cheng Lin, R. Mélin, Heiko Rieger +1 more

The effect of quenched disorder on the low-energy and low-temperature properties of various two- and three-dimensional Heisenberg models is studied by a numerical strong disorder renormalization-group method. For strong enough disorder we have identified two relevant fixed points, in which the gap exponent, $\ensuremath{\omega},$ describing the low-energy tail of the gap distribution $P(\ensuremath{\Delta})\ensuremath{\sim}{\ensuremath{\Delta}}^{\ensuremath{\omega}}$ is independent of disorder, the strength of couplings, and the value of the spin. The dynamical behavior of nonfrustrated random antiferromagnetic models is controlled by a singletlike fixed point, whereas for frustrated models the fixed point corresponds to a large spin formation and the gap exponent is given by $\ensuremath{\omega}\ensuremath{\approx}0.$ Another type of universality class is observed at quantum critical points and in dimerized phases but no infinite randomness behavior is found, in contrast to that of one-dimensional models.
