    Jz/Ji J2: Model

    Uploaded by

    Ketan
    The classical ground state of the Heisenberg model is a spiral wave for J2/J1 values greater than 1/4, with the angle a decreasing from π towards π/2 as J2/J1 increases. For spin S = 1/2, the quantum transition is between a spin liquid and a dimer phase, rather than the Néel-to-spiral transition predicted in the classical limit. A subclass of quantum ground states can be obtained by imposing antiferromagnetic order on 2/3 of the sites arranged in a honeycomb lattice, with the remaining 1/3 of sites free to choose their spin state.

    6 Heisenberg Model

    with respect to a , we obtain

    if Jz/Ji 2 1/4

    The classical ground state is a spiral wave for J2> J1/4. As J ~ / J increases,
    I
    a gradually decreases from T towards n/2.
    The Nkel-to-spiral transition predicted for the classical limit is destabilized
    by quantum fluctuations. For S = 1/2, the quantum transition is between a
    spin liquid and a dimer phase (see Sec. 6.3.2). Let us observe that studying the
    classical limit does not give any hint of dimerization; the dimer order described
    in Sec. 6.3.2 is a purely quantum phenomenon.

    Figure 6.9: Construction of a class of king ground states. Two thirds of the sites
    form a honeycomb lattice with perfect AF order. The spin states of the remaining
    one third of the sites (circles) are free to choose.

    Problem 6.5. A low-energy bond connects a site with S" = S to a site


    with S" = -S; anything else is bad. In Sec. 6.3.4, we convinced ourselves
    that every triangle must contain at least one unsatisfied bond. A subclass of
    ground states with partial long range order is obtained by imposing AF order
    on a sublattice holding 2L/3 sites in the form of a honeycomb lattice (Fig. 6.9).
    L/3 sites are at the hexagon centres. Each of these has three neighbours with
    Sz = S , and three with S" = -S, thus whatever the spin at the centre site is,
    +
    the energy remains the same. The centre spin can be chosen in (25 1) ways,
    thus this subclass contains (2s + l ) L / 3 ground states, an exponentially large
    number. Naturally, the total number of the ground states is larger, and most
    of them show no recognizable order.
    For S = 1/2, we constructed 2L/3ground states, thus (In 2 / 3 ) k ~= 0.231k~
    is a lower bound for the zero point entropy density. The exact value is 0.3383k~
    [438].
