Gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon in doped cuprates

We develop a partial charge-spin separation fermion-spin theory implemented the gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon. In this novel approach, the physical electron is decoupled as the gauge invariant dressed holon and spinon, with the dressed holon behaviors like a spinful fermion, and represents the charge degree of freedom together with the phase part of the spin degree of freedom, while the dressed spinon is a hard-core boson, and represents the amplitude part of the spin degree of freedom, then the electron single occupancy local constraint is satisfied. Within this approach, the charge transport and spin response of the underdoped cuprates is studied. It is shown that the charge transport is mainly governed by the scattering from the dressed holons due to the dressed spinon fluctuation, while the scattering from the dressed spinons due to the dressed holon fluctuation dominates the spin response.

Charge transport in underdoped bilayer cuprates

Within the t-J model, we study the charge transport in underdoped bilayer cuprates by considering the bilayer interaction. Although the bilayer interaction leads to the band splitting in the electronic structure, the qualitative behavior of the charge transport is the same as in the case of single layer cuprates. The conductivity spectrum shows a low-energy peak and the unusual midinfrared band. This midinfrared band is suppressed severely with increasing temperatures, while the resistivity in the heavily underdoped regime is characterized by a crossover from the high temperature metallic-like to the low temperature insulating-like behaviors, which are consistent with the experiments.

Indications of incommensurate spin fluctuations in doped triangular antiferromagnets

The incommensurate spin fluctuation of the doped triangular antiferromagnet is studied within the t-J model. It is shown that the commensurate peak near the half-filling is split into six incommensurate peaks in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes. The incommensurability increases with the hole concentration at lower dopings, and saturates at higher dopings. Although the incommensurability is almost energy independent, the weight of these incommensurate peaks decreases with energy and temperature.

Energy dependence of commensurate neutron scattering peak in doped two-leg ladder antiferromagnet Sr_{14-x}Ca_{x}Cu_{24}O_{41}

The dynamical spin response of doped two-leg ladder antiferromagnets is investigated based on the fermion-spin approach. Our calculations clearly demonstrate a crossover from the incommensurate antiferromagnetism in the weak interchain coupling regime to commensurate spin fluctuation in the strong interchain coupling regime. In particular, the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate extracted from the commensurate spin fluctuation decreases exponentially with decreasing temperatures. The behaviors of the spin dynamics in the strong coupling regime are quantitatively close to the experimental results of Sr_{14-x}Ca_{x}Cu_{24}O_{41}.

Schwinger-Boson Mean-Field Theory of Mixed-Spin Antiferromagnet $L_2BaNiO_5$

The Schwinger-boson mean-field theory is used to study the three-dimensional antiferromagnetic ordering and excitations in compounds $L_2BaNiO_5$, a large family of quasi-one-dimensional mixed-spin antiferromagnet. To investigate magnetic properties of these compounds, we introduce a three-dimensional mixed-spin antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model based on experimental results for the crystal structure of $L_2BaNiO_5$. This model can explain the experimental discovery of coexistence of Haldane gap and antiferromagnetic long-range order below Néel temperature. Properties such as the low-lying excitations, magnetizations of $Ni$ and rare-earth ions, Néel temperatures of different compounds, and the behavior of Haldane gap below the Néel temperature are investigated within this model, and the results are in good agreement with neutron scattering experiments.

Convergence of energy-dependent incommensurate antiferromagnetic neutron scattering peaks to commensurate resonance in underdoped bilayer cuprates

The recently discovered coexistence of incommensurate antiferromagnetic neutron scattering peaks and commensurate resonance in underdoped YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{6+x}$ is calling for an explanation. Within the t-J model, the doping and energy dependence of the spin dynamics of the underdoped bilayer cuprates in the normal state is studied based on the fermion-spin theory by considering the bilayer interactions. Incommensurate peaks are found at $[(1\pmδ)π,π] $ and $[π,(1\pmδ)π]$ at low energies with $δ$ initially increasing with doping at low dopings and then saturating at higher dopings. These incommensurate peaks are suppressed, and the parameter $δ$ is reduced with increasing energy. Eventually it converges to the $[π,π]$ resonance peak. Thus the recently observed coexistence is interpreted in terms of bilayer interactions.

Pseudogap effects on the charge dynamics in the underdoped copper oxide materials

Within the t-J model, the charge dynamics of copper oxide materials in the underdoped regime is studied based on the fermion-spin theory. It is shown that both in-plane charge dynamics and c-axis charge dynamics are mainly governed by the scattering from the in-plane fluctuation, which would be suppressed when the holon pseudogap opens at low temperatures, leading to the temperature linear to the nonlinear range in the in-plane resistivity and crossovers to the semiconducting-like range in the c-axis resistivity.

Effect of the additional second neighbor hopping on the charge dynamics in the t-J model

The effect of the additional second neighbor hopping t' on the charge dynamics of the t-J model in the underdoped regime is studied within the fermion-spin theory. The conductivity spectrum of the t-t'-J model shows the low-energy peak and unusual midinfrared band, while the resistivity exhibits a nearly temperature linear dependence with deviation at low temperature in the underdoped regime. Although the qualitative feature of the charge dynamics in the t-t'-J model is the same as in the case of the t-J model, the additional second neighbor hopping t' leads to a clear shift of the position of the midinfrared band to the higher energies in the conductivity spectrum, and suppress the range of the deviation from the temperature linear dependence in the resistivity.

Optical and transport properties in doped two-leg ladder antiferromagnet

Within the t-J model, the optical and transport properties of the doped two-leg ladder antiferromagnet are studied based on the fermion-spin theory. It is shown that the optical and transport properties of the doped two-leg ladder antiferromagnet are mainly governed by the holon scattering. The low energy peak in the optical conductivity is located at a finite energy, while the resistivity exhibits a crossover from the high temperature metallic-like behavior to the low temperature insulating-like behavior, which are consistent with the experiments.

Doping and temperature dependence of incommensurate antiferromagnetism in underdoped lanthanum cuprates

The doping, temperature and energy dependence of the dynamical spin structure factors of the underdoped lanthanum cuprates in the normal state is studied within the t-J model using the fermion-spin transformation technique. Incommensurate peaks are found at $[(1\pmδ)π,π]$, $[π,(1\pmδ)π]$ at relatively low temperatures with $δ$ linearly increasing with doping at the beginning and then saturating at higher dopings. These peaks broaden and weaken in amplitude with temperature and energy, in good agreement with experiments. The theory also predicts a rotation of these peaks by $π/4$ at even higher temperatures, being shifted to $[(1\pm δ/\sqrt{2})π,(1\pm δ/\sqrt{2})π]$.

Effect of the additional second neighbor hopping on the spin dynamics in the t-J model

The effect of the additional second neighbor hopping t' on the spin dynamics in the t-J model is studied within the fermion-spin theory. Although the additional second neighbor hopping t' is systematically accompanied with the reduction of the dynamical spin structure factor and susceptibility, the qualitative behaviors of the dynamical spin structure factor and susceptibility are the same as in the case of t-J model. It is also shown that the integrated dynamical spin structure factor is almost t' independent in the underdoped regime.

Normal-state pseudogap and electron flat dispersion in copper oxide materials

The anomalous momentum and doping dependence of the electron spectral function and electron dispersion for copper oxide materials in the underdoped regime are studied within the t-J model. It is shown that the electron spectrum is changed with dopings, and the electron dispersion exhibits a flat band around ($π$,0) point in the Brillouin zone, which leads to the normal-state pseudogap formation. The theoretical results are consistent with the experiments and numerical simulations.

Influence of the additional second neighbor hopping on the spin response in the t-J model

The influence of the additional second neighbor hopping t' on the spin response of the t-J model in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes is studied within the fermion-spin theory. Although the additional second neighbor hopping t' is systematically accompanied with the reduction of the dynamical spin structure factor and susceptibility, the qualitative behavior of the dynamical spin structure factor and susceptibility of the t-t'-J model is the same as in the case of t-J model. The integrated dynamical spin structure factor spectrum is almost t' independent, and the integrated dynamical spin susceptibility still shows the particularly universal behavior as $I(ω,T)\propto {\rm arctan}[a_{1}ω/T+a_{3}(ω/T)^{3}]$.

Charge dynamics in doped triangular antiferromagnets

Within the framework of the fermion-spin theory based on the charge-spin separation, the charge dynamics of the doped antiferromagnet on a triangular lattice is studied. The holon part is treated by using the loop expansion to the second order. It is shown that the charge dynamics is mainly caused by charged holons moving in the background of spinon excitations. The optical conductivity spectrum shows an unusual behavior at low energies and an anomalous midinfrared band, while the resistivity exhibits a nonlinearity in temperatures.

Pseudogap effects on the c-axis charge dynamics in copper oxide materials

The c-axis charge dynamics of copper oxide materials in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes has been studied by considering the incoherent interlayer hopping. It is shown that the c-axis charge dynamics for the chain copper oxide materials is mainly governed by the scattering from the in-plane fluctuation, and the c-axis charge dynamics for the no-chain copper oxide materials is dominated by the scattering from the in-plane fluctuation incorporating with the interlayer disorder, which would be suppressed when the holon pseudogap opens at low temperatures and lower doping levels, leading to the crossovers to the semiconducting-like range in the c-axis resistivity and the temperature linear to the nonlinear range in the in-plane resistivity.

Electronic properties of the doped antiferromagnet on a kagome lattice

Within the t-J model, we study the electronic properties of the doped antiferromagnet on the kagome lattice based on the framework of the self-consistent mean-field theory. At the half-filling, the spin-liquid ground-state energy per site of the kagome antiferromagnet is Eg/NJ=-0.859, which is in very good agreement with the numerical estimates. Away from the half-filling, the electron photoemission spectroscopy and density of states are discussed, and the results indicate that there is a gap in the normal-state of the system.

Spin-Liquid State for Two-Dimensional Heisenberg Antiferromagnets on a Triangular Lattice

The spin liquid state of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a triangular lattice is studied within the self-consistent Green's function method. It is shown that the spin excitation spectra is gapless, and ground-state energy per site is $E_{g}/NJ=-0.966$, which is in very good agreement with the results obtained within the variational Monte Carlo method based on the resonating-valence-bond state. Some thermodynamic properties are also discussed.
