Estimation of the Doping Dependence of Antiferromagnetism in the Copper Oxide Material
Within the - model, we study the doping dependence of
antiferromagnetism in the copper oxide materials by considering quantum
fluctuations of spinons in the random-phase-approximation. The staggered
magnetization vanishes around doping for a reasonable parameter
value , which is in agreement with the experiments on copper oxide
materials.Comment: 14 page
Schwinger-Boson Mean-Field Theory of Mixed-Spin Antiferromagnet
The Schwinger-boson mean-field theory is used to study the three-dimensional
antiferromagnetic ordering and excitations in compounds , 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 . This model can explain the experimental
discovery of coexistence of Haldane gap and antiferromagnetic long-range order
below N\'{e}el temperature. Properties such as the low-lying excitations,
magnetizations of and rare-earth ions, N\'{e}el temperatures of different
compounds, and the behavior of Haldane gap below the N\'{e}el temperature are
investigated within this model, and the results are in good agreement with
neutron scattering experiments.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
The effects of Zn Impurity on the Properties of Doped Cuprates in the Normal State
We study the interplay of quantum impurity, and collective spinon and holon
dynamics in Zn doped high-T cuprates in the normal state. The
two-dimensional t-t-J models with one and a small amount of Zn
impurity are investigated within a numerical method based on the double-time
Green function theory. We study the inhomogeneities of holon density and
antiferromagnetic correlation background in cases with different Zn
concentrations, and obtain that doped holes tend to assemble around the Zn
impurity with their mobility being reduced. Therefore a bound state of holon is
formed around the nonmagnetic Zn impurity with the effect helping Zn to
introduce local antiferromagnetism around itself. The incommensurate peaks we
obtained in the spin structure factor indicate that Zn impurities have effects
on mixing the q=(, ) and q=0 components in spin excitations.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
