Field-induced disorder in a gapped spin system with non-magnetic impurities

We study S=1/2 dimers which are weakly coupled by three-dimensional antiferromagnetic interactions J'. It is commonly known that doping with non-magnetic impurities immediately induces a long-range Neel order. We show that application of an external magnetic field H may drive the system back to a disordered phase. We discuss the zero temperature phase diagram in the (H,J') plane and we propose suggestions for experiments.

Spin dynamics of a one-dimensional spin-1/2 fully anisotropic Ising-like antiferromagnet in a transverse magnetic field

We consider the one-dimensional Ising-like fully anisotropic S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic Hamiltonian and study the dynamics of domain wall excitations in the presence of transverse magnetic field $h_x$. We obtain dynamical spin correlation functions along the magnetic field $S^{xx}(q,ω)$ and perpendicular to it $S^{yy}(q,ω)$. It is shown that the line shapes of $S^{xx}(q,ω)$ and $S^{yy}(q,ω)$ are purely symmetric at the zone-boundary. It is observed in $S^{yy}(q,ω)$ for $π/2<q<π$ that the spectral weight moves toward low energy side with the increase of $h_x$. This model is applicable to study the spin dynamics of CsCoCl$_3$ in the presence of weak interchain interactions.

Exact ground and excited states of frustrated antiferromagnets on the CaV_4O_9 lattice

The experimental observation of a spin-gap in the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 compound $CaV_4O_9$ has been attributed to the formation of a plaquette resonating-valence-bond (PRVB) state in the underlying 1/5-depleted square lattice. We construct a spin-1/2 model on the 1/5-depleted lattice for which the PRVB state can be shown to be the exact ground state in a particular parameter regime. In a subspace of this parameter regime, the first excited state can be calculated exactly. In a different parameter regime, the dimer state is shown to be the exact ground state.

Antiferromagnetic Spin Ladders with Odd and Even number of Chains

We construct frustrated antiferromagnetic spin ladders with m chains for which the exact ground state can be determined in a particular parameter regime. The excitation spectrum is shown rigorously to be gapless ( with gap ) for odd ( even ) m. In a general parameter regime, the four-chain and periodic ladders are studied using a mean-field theory based on the bond operator formalism for spin $S=1/2$. The excitation spectrum and the spin-gap are calculated in both the cases. The spin-gap of the frustrated ladder system has a larger magnitude than in the case of non-frustrated ladders. For the frustrated periodic ladder, the spin-gap vanishes at a critical value of the interladder coupling strength which is larger than the critical value in the case of non-frustrated periodic ladder.
