Ferrimagnetic mixed-spin ladders in weak and strong coupling limits

We study two similar spin ladder systems with the ferromagnetic leg coupling. First model includes two sorts of spins, s= 1/2 and s= 1, and the second model comprises only s=1/2 legs coupled by a "triangular" rung exchange. The antiferromagnetic (AF) rung coupling destroys the long-range order and eventually makes the systems equivalent to the AF s=1/2 Heisenberg chain. We investigate the situation by different methods in weak and strong rung coupling limits. Particularly we compare the spin-wave theory and the bosonization method in the weak coupling regime of the second model. We analyze the spectra and correlations, and discuss the order parameter of these ladder systems.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figure

RKKY interaction in the nearly-nested Fermi liquid

We present the results of analytical evaluation of the indirect RKKY interaction in a layered metal with nearly nested (almost squared) Fermi surface. The final expressions are obtained in closed form as a combination of Bessel functions. We discuss the notion of the ``2k_F'' oscillations and show that they occur as the far asymptote of our expressions. We show the existence of the intermediate asymptote of the interaction which is of the sign-reversal antiferromagnetic type and is the only term surviving in the limit of exact nesting. A good accordance of our analytical formulas with numerical findings is demonstrated until the interatomic distances. The obtained expressions for the Green's functions extend the previous analytical results into the region of intermediate distances as well.Comment: 9 pages, REVTEX, 3 .eps figures, to appear in PRB 1 Oct 199

High efficiency and low absorption Fresnel compound zone plates for hard X-ray focusing

Circular and linear zone plates have been fabricated on the surface of silicon crystals for the energy of 8 keV by electron beam lithography and deep ion plasma etching methods. Various variants of compound zone plates with first, second, third diffraction orders have been made. The zone relief height is about 10 mkm, the outermost zone width of the zone plate is 0.4 mkm. The experimental testing of the zone plates has been conducted on SPring-8 and ESRF synchrotron radiation sources. A focused spot size and diffraction efficiency measured by knife-edge scanning are accordingly 0.5 mkm and 39% for the first order circular zone plate.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure

Optical conductivity of one-dimensional doped Hubbard-Mott insulator

We study the optical response of a strongly correlated electron system near the metal-insulator transition using a mapping to the sine-Gordon model. With semiclassical quantization, the spectral weight is distributed between a Drude peak and absorption lines due to breathers. We calculate the Drude weight, the optical gap, and the lineshape of breather absorption.Comment: 4 pages, 2 EPS figures, REVTEX 4, a final versio

Bosonization for Wigner-Jordan-like Transformation : Backscattering and Umklapp-processes on Fictitious Lattice

We analyze the asymptotic behavior of the exponential form in the fermionic density operators as the function of ruling parameter Q. In the particular case Q=\pi this exponential associates with the Wigner-Jordan transformation for XY spin chain model. We compare the bosonization approach and the evaluation via the Toeplitz determinant. The use of Szego-Kac theorem suggests that at Q>\pi/3 the divergent series for intrinsic logarithm provides a bosonized solution and faster decaying one, found as the logarithm's value on another sheet of the complex plane. The second solution is revealed as umklapp-process on the fictitious lattice while originates from backscattering terms in bosonized density. Our finding preserves in a wide range of fermion filling ratios.Comment: 8 pages, REVTEX, 3 eps figures, accepted to Phys.Rev.

Quasi One-Dimensional Spin Fluctuations in YBa(2)Cu(3)O(6+x)

We study the spin fluctuation of the oxygen deficient planes of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(6+x). The Cu-O chains that constitute these planes are described by a model that includes antiferromagnetic interactions between spins and Kondo-like scattering of oxygen holes. The spectrum of magnetic excitations shows the presence of incommensurate dynamic fluctuations along the direction of the chains. The presence of itinerant holes is responsible for the existence of important differences between the spin dynamics of this system and that of a quasi-one-dimensional localized antiferromagnet. We comment on the possibility of experimental observation of these fluctuations.Comment: 22 pages, REVTEX, 3 figures, to appear in PRB55 (1May 1997
