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.

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.

Magnetic properties of frustrated spin ladder

The magnetic properties of the antiferromagnetic spin ladder with the next-nearest neighbor interaction, particularly under external field, are investigated by the exact diagonalization of the finite clusters and size scaling techniques. It is found that there exist two phases, the rung-dimer and rung-triplet phases, not only in the nonmagnetic ground state but also magnetized one, where the phase boundary has a small magnetization dependence. Only in the former phase, the magnetization curve is revealed to have a possible plateau at half the saturation moment, with a sufficient frustration.

Magnetization Plateau in the Frustrated Spin Ladder

The magnetization process of the S=1/2 antiferromagnetic spin ladder at T=0 is studied by the exact diagonalization of finite clusters and size scaling analyses. It is found that a magnetization plateau appears at half the saturation value (m=1/2) in the presence of a sufficiently large next-nearest-neighbor exchange interaction to yield the frustration, when the rung coupling is larger than the leg one. The phase diagram at m=1/2 is given by the analysis based on the conformal invariance. The magnetization curves are also presented in several cases.
