Possibility of field-induced incommensurate order in quasi-one-dimensional frustrated spin system

We study an incommensurate long-range order induced by an external magnetic field in a quasi-one-dimensional bond-alternating spin system, F5PNN, focusing on the role of the frustrating interaction which can be enhanced by a high-pressure effect. On the basis of the density matrix renormalization group analysis of a microscopic model for F5PNN, we present several H-T phase diagrams for typical parameters of the frustrating next-nearest-neighbour coupling and the interchain interaction, and then discuss how the field-induced incommensurate order develops by the frustration effect in such phase diagrams. A magnetization plateau at half the saturation moment is also mentioned.

Inversion phenomenon and phase diagram of the $S=1/2$ distorted diamond chain with the $XXZ$ interaction anisotropy

We discuss the anisotropies of the Hamiltonian and the wave-function in an $S=1/2$ distorted diamond chain. The ground-state phase diagram of this model is investigated using the degenerate perturbation theory up to the first order and the level spectroscopy analysis of the numerical diagonalization data. In some regions of the obtained phase diagram, the anisotropy of the Hamiltonian and that of the wave-function are inverted, which we call inversion phenomenon; the Néel phase appears for the XY-like anisotropy and the spin-fluid phase appears for the Ising-like anisotropy. Three key words are important for this nature, which are frustration, the trimer nature, and the $XXZ$ anisotropy.

Anomalous magnetization process in frustrated spin ladders

We study, at T=0, the anomalies in the magnetization curve of the S=1 two-leg ladder with frustrated interactions. We focus mainly on the existence of the $M=\Ms/2$ plateau, where $\Ms$ is the saturation magnetization. We use analytical methods (degenerate perturbation theory and non-Abelian bosonization) as well as numerical methods (level spectroscopy and density matrix renormalization group), which lead to the consistent conclusion with each other. We also touch on the $M=\Ms/4$ and $M=(3/4)\Ms$ plateaux and cusps.

Finite-Field Ground State of the S=1 Antiferromagnetic-Ferromagnetic Bond-Alternating Chain

We investigate the finite-field ground state of the S=1 antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic bond-alternating chain described by the Hamiltonian ${\calH}=\sum\nolimits_{\ell}\bigl\{\vecS_{2\ell-1}\cdot\vecS_{2\ell} +J\vecS_{2\ell}\cdot\vecS_{2\ell+1}\bigr\} +D\sum\nolimits_{\ell} \bigl(S_{\ell}^z)^2 -H\textstyle\sum\nolimits_\ell S_\ell^z$, where \hbox{$J\leq0$} and \hbox{$-\infty<D<\infty$}. We find that two kinds of magnetization plateaux at a half of the saturation magnetization, the 1/2-plateaux, appear in the ground-state magnetization curve; one of them is of the Haldane type and the other is of the large-$D$-type. We determine the 1/2-plateau phase diagram on the $D$ versus $J$ plane, applying the twisted-boundary-condition level spectroscopy methods developed by Kitazawa and Nomura. We also calculate the ground-state magnetization curves and the magnetization phase diagrams by means of the density-matrix renormalization-group method.

Frustration-induced eta inversion in the S=1/2 bond-alternating spin chain

We study the frustration-induced enhancement of the incommensurate correlation for a bond-alternating quantum spin chain in a magnetic field, which is associated with a quasi-one-dimensional organic compound F5PNN. We investigate the temperature dependence of the staggered susceptibilities by using the density matrix renormalization group, and then find that the incommensurate correlation becomes dominant in a certain range of the magnetic field. We also discuss the mechanism of this enhancement on the basis of the mapping to the effective S=1/2 XXZ chain and a possibility of the field-induced incommensurate long range order.

Magnetic properties of the $S=1/2$ distorted diamond chain at T=0

We explore, at T=0, the magnetic properties of the $S=1/2$ antiferromagnetic distorted diamond chain described by the Hamiltonian ${\cal H} = \sum_{j=1}^{N/3}{J_1 ({\bi S}_{3j-1} \cdot {\bi S}_{3j} + {\bi S}_{3j} \cdot {\bi S}_{3j+1}) + J_2 {\bi S}_{3j+1} \cdot {\bi S}_{3j+2} + J_3 ({\bi S}_{3j-2} \cdot {\bi S}_{3j} + {\bi S}_{3j} \cdot {\bi S}_{3j+2})} \allowbreak - H \sum_{l=1}^{N} S_l^z $ with $J_1, J_2, J_3\ge0$, which well models ${\rm A_3 Cu_3 (PO_4)_4}$ with ${\rm A = Ca, Sr}$, ${\rm Bi_4 Cu_3 V_2 O_{14}}$ and azurite $\rm Cu_3(OH)_2(CO_3)_2$. We employ the physical consideration, the degenerate perturbation theory, the level spectroscopy analysis of the numerical diagonalization data obtained by the Lanczos method and also the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) method. We investigate the mechanisms of the magnetization plateaux at $M=M_s/3$ and $M=(2/3)M_s$, and also show the precise phase diagrams on the $(J_2/J_1, J_3/J_1)$ plane concerning with these magnetization plateaux, where $M=\sum_{l=1}^{N} S_l^z$ and $M_s$ is the saturation magnetization. We also calculate the magnetization curves and the magnetization phase diagrams by means of the DMRG method.

Quantum magnetization plateaux of an anisotropic ferrimagnetic spin chain

The magnetization curve of the $(S,s)=(1,1/2)$ ferrimagnetic alternating spin chain with the single-ion anisotropy $D$ is investigated with the numerical exact diagonalization of finite clusters and size-scaling analyses. The system has a plateau at 1/3 of the saturation moment, which corresponds to the spontaneous magnetization for D=0. Varying $D$ in the 1/3-magnetized ground state under the external field along the axis of $D$, a quantum phase transition is revealed to occur at the critical value $D/J=1.114 \pm 0.001$ where the plateau vanishes. Except for the critical point, the plateau is always opening, but the mechanism is different between $D D_c$. The change of mechanisms is an evidence to clarify that the plateau originates from the quantization of magnetization.

Anisotropies of the Hamiltonian and the Wave Function: Inversion Phenomena in Quantum Spin Chains

We investigate the inversion phenomenon between the XXZ anisotropies of the Hamiltonian and the wave function in quantum spin chains, mainly focusing on the S=1/2 trimerized XXZ model with the next-nearest-neighbor interactions. We have obtained the ground-state phase diagram by use of the degenerate perturbation theory and the level spectroscopy analysis of the numerical data calculated by the Lanczos method. In some parameter regions, the spin-fluid is realized for the Ising-like anisotropy, and the Neel state for the XY-like anisotropy, against the ordinary situation.

Mechanisms for Non-Trivial Magnetization Plateaux of an S=1 Frustrated Spin Ladder

We investigate the non-trivial magnetization plateau at 1/4 of the saturation magnetization of S=1 spin ladder, especially with reference to recent experimental results on a new organic tetraradical 3,3',5,5'-tetrakis(N-tert-butylaminoxyl)biphenyl, abbreviated as BIP-TENO. We propose three mechanisms for the formation of the plateau; the Neel mechanism, the dimer mechanism and the spin-Peierls mechanism. We also discuss the effect of four-spin exchange interactions.

Magnetization Plateau in the S=1 Spin Ladder with Competing Interactions

Very recently a non-trivial magnetization plateau at 1/4 of the saturation magnetization was observed in the S=1 spin ladder BIP-TENO. In our previous work we proposed a possible mechanism of the plateau based on the second- and third-neighbor exchange couplings which lead to frustration. In order to confirm the realization of the mechanism, we compare the temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility and some critical magnetic fields obtained by the numerical calculation for the proposed model with the experimental results.

Inversion Phenomena of the Anisotropies of the Hamiltonian and the Wave-Function in the Distorted Diamond Type Spin Chain

We investigate the ground-sate phase diagram of the XXZ version of the S=1/2 distorted diamond chain by use of the degenerate perturbation theory near the truncation point. In case of the XY-like interaction anisotropy, the phase diagram consists of the Neel phase and the spin-fluid phase. For the Ising-like interaction anisotropy case, it consists of three phases: the ferrimagnetic phase, the Neel phase and the spin-fluid phase. The magnetization in the ferrimagnetic phase is 1/3 of the saturation magnetization. The remarkable nature of the phase diagram is the existence of the Neel phase, although the interaction anisotropy is XY-like. And also, the spin-fluid phase appears in spite of the Ising-like interaction anisotropy. We call these regions "inversion regions".

Field-Induced gap due to four-spin exchange in a spin ladder

The effect of the four-spin cyclic exchange interaction at each plaquette in the $S=1/2$ two-leg spin ladder is investigated at T=0, especially focusing on the field-induced gap. The strong rung coupling approximation suggests that it yields a plateau at half of the saturation moment ($m=1/2$) in the magnetization curve, which corresponds to a field-induced spin gap with a spontaneous breaking of the translational symmetry. A precise phase diagram at $m=1/2$ is also presented based on the level spectroscopy analysis of the numerical data obtained by Lanczos method. The boundary between the gapless and plateau phases is confirmed to be of the Kosterlitz-Thouless (KT) universality class.

Magnetization Plateau of an S=1 Frustrated Spin Ladder

We study the magnetization plateau at 1/4 of the saturation magnetization of the S=1 antiferromagnetic spin ladder both analytically and numerically, with the aim of explaining recent experimental results on BIP-TENO by Goto et al. We propose two mechanisms for the plateau formation and clarify the plateau phase diagram on the plane of the coupling constants between spins.

Field-Induced Gaps in the Frustrated Spin Ladder

We study the magnetization process of the $S=1/2$ antiferromagnetic spin ladder in the presence of the second and the third-neighbor couplings which lead to frustration with the typical nearest-neighbor coupling. We use degenerate perturbation theory and level spectroscopy analysis of the numerical diagonalization data of the Hamiltonian for finite systems. We find two kinds of plateaux at half the saturation moment in the magnetization curve. One is mainly due to the second-neighbor couplings and the other to the third-neighbor couplings. The mechanisms of these two plateaux are quite different with each other.

Ground State Properties of an S=1/2 Distorted Diamond Chain

We investigate the ground state properties of an S=1/2 distorted diamond chain described by the Hamiltonian ${\cal H}=J_1\sum_\ell\bigl\{\bigl(\vecS_{3\ell-1}\cdot\vecS_{3\ell} +\vecS_{3\ell}\cdot\vecS_{3\ell+1}\bigr)+J_2\vecS_{3\ell-2}\cdot\vecS_{3\ell-1} +J_3\bigl(\vecS_{3\ell-2}\cdot\vecS_{3\ell}+\vecS_{3\ell}\cdot\vecS_{3\ ell+2}\bigr)-H S_{\ell}^z\bigr\}$ ($J_1,~J_2,~J_3\geq0$), which models well a trimerized S=1/2 spin chain system Cu$_3$Cl$_6$(H$_2$O)$_2$$\cdot$2H$_8$C$_4$SO$_2$. Using an exact diagonalization method by means of the Lanczös technique, we determine the ground state phase diagram in the H=0 case, composed of the dimerized, spin fluid, and ferrimagnetic phases. Performing a degenerate perturbation calculation, we analyze the phase boundary line between the latter two phases in the $J_2,~J_3\llJ_1$ limit, the result of which is in good agreement with the numerical result. We calculate, by the use of the density matrix renormalization group method, the ground state magnetization curve for the case (a) where $J_1=1.0$, $J_2=0.8$, and $J_3=0.5$, and the case (b) where $J_1=1.0$, $J_2=0.8$, and $J_3=0.3$. We find that in the case (b) the 2/3-plateau appears in addition to the 1/3-plateau which also appears in the case (a). The translational symmetry of the Hamiltonian $\cal H$ is spontaneously broken in the 2/3-plateau state as well as in the dimerized state.

Breakdown of the magnetization plateau of the S=1/2 ferromagnetic-ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic trimerized spin chain with anisotropy

We study the breakdown of the magnetization plateau at the magnetization M=M_{S}/3 (M_{S} is the saturation magnetization) of the S=1/2 anisotropic spin chain with ferromagnetic-ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic interactions. We consider the model with the isotropic ferromagnetic (trimer) coupling J_{F}, and anisotropic antiferromagnetic coupling (J_{x}=J_{y}=J_{AF} and J_{z}=ΔJ_{AF}). For the limit of large γ\equiv J_{F}/J_{AF}, the model is equivalent to the S=3/2 XXZ chain with the exchange anisotropy Δ. There is a phase transition between the plateau (small-γ) and the no-plateau (large-γ) regions. This phase transition is of the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless type, and we determine the phase boundary from the numerical diagonalization data. For Δ=1, in particular, the phase transition between the plateau and the no-plateau regions occurs at the point γ_{c}=15.4.

Magnetization-plateau state of the S=3/2 spin chain with single ion anisotropy

We reexamine the numerical study of the magnetized state of the S=3/2 spin chain with single ion anisotropy D(> 0) for the magnetization M=M_{S}/3, where M_{S} is the saturation magnetization. We find at this magnetization that for D D_{c1}, the parameter region is divided into two parts D_{c1} < D < D_{c2}=0.943 and D_{c2} < D. In each region, the system is gapful and the M=M_{S}/3 magnetization plateau appears in the magnetization process. From our numerical calculation, the intermediate region D_{c1} < D < D_{c2} should be characterized by a magnetized valence-bond-solid state.
