Spin-flop transitions and spin-wave gaps in La_2CuO_4
We study the spin-wave spectrum and the spin-flop transitions in La_2CuO_4 in
a uniform magnetic field at zero temperature. Using the non-linear sigma-model,
we show that a field applied along the orthorhombic b direction leads to a
two-step rotation of the staggered magnetization, first in the bc and then in
the ac plane, until the order parameter is completely aligned along the c axis.
In contrast, for a perpendicular magnetic field, we find a conventional
spin-flop transition induced by the competition between the field and the
interlayer coupling. A comparison with recent measurements of the
field-dependence of the in-plane spin-wave gap shows a beautiful agreement
between theory and experiments.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures; added referenc
Bi-quadratic magnetoelectric coupling in underdoped La_2CuO_{4+x}
The recent discovery of relaxor ferroelectricity and magnetoelectric effect
in lightly doped cuprate material La_2CuO_{4+x} has provided a number of
questions concerning its theoretical description. It has been argued using a
Ginzburg-Landau free energy approach that the magnetoelectric effect can be
explained by the presence of bi-quadratic interaction terms in the free energy.
Here, by using the same free energy functional, we study the variety of
behavior which can emerge in the electric polarization under an external
magnetic field. Subsequently, we discuss the role of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya
interaction in generating this magnetoelectric response. This work is
particularly relevant for such relaxor systems where the material-dependent
parameters would be affected by changes in e.g. chemical doping or cooling
rate.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with

Comment on "Strong dependence of the interlayer coupling on the hole mobility in antiferromagnetic LaSrCuO ()"
Using the experimental data given in Phys. Rev. B70, 220507 (2004), we show
that -- unlike the effective coupling discussed in this paper -- the net
average antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling in doped lanthanum cuprates
depends only weakly on the doping or on the temperature. We argue that the
effective coupling is proportional to the square of the staggered
magnetization, and does not supply new information about the origin of the
suppression of the magnetic order in doped samples. Our analysis is based on a
modified version of the equation describing the spin-flip transition, which
takes into account the decrease of the staggered moment with temperature and
doping.Comment: Phys. Rev. B (in press

Frustration of the interlayer coupling by mobile holes in La2-xSrxCuO4 (x<0.02)
We have studied the interlayer coupling in the antiferromagnetic (AF) phase
of Sr and Zn doped La2CuO4 by analyzing the spin flip transition in the
magnetization curves. We find that the interlayer coupling strongly depends on
the mobility of the hole charge carriers. Samples with the same hole content as
well as the same Neel temperature but a different hole mobility, which we
adjusted by Zn co-doping, can have a very different interlayer coupling. Our
results suggest that only mobile holes can cause a strong frustration of the
interlayer coupling.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Magnetic susceptibility anisotropies in a two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions
The magnetic and thermodynamic properties of the two-dimensional quantum
Heisenberg antiferromagnet that incorporates both a Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya and
pseudo-dipolar interactions are studied within the framework of a generalized
nonlinear sigma model (NLSM). We calculate the static uniform susceptibility
and sublattice magnetization as a function of temperature and we show that: i)
the magnetic-response is anisotropic and differs qualitatively from the
expected behavior of a conventional easy-axis QHAF; ii) the Neel second-order
phase transition becomes a crossover, for a magnetic field B perpendicular to
the CuO(2) layers. We provide a simple and clear explanation for all the
recently reported unusual magnetic anisotropies in the low-field susceptibility
of La(2)CuO(4), L. N. Lavrov et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 87, 017007 (2001), and we
demonstrate explicitly why La(2)CuO(4) can not be classified as an ordinary
easy-axis antiferromagnet.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, Revtex4, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.

Formulation of the problem in writing this essay is What motivation and leadership simultaneously affect the job satisfaction of employees at PT Adira Finance Cabang Pekanbaru? Is partial motivation affect the job satisfaction of employees at PT Adira Finance Cabang Pekanbaru? Is leadership a partial effect on job satisfaction of employees at PT Adira Finance Cabang Pekanbaru? The population of this study were employees of PT Adira Finance Cabang Pekanbaru, amounting to 268 people. In Slovin sampling method is used to obtain as many as 71 respondents. To determine the perceptions of the dimensions of job satisfaction, the method of data analysis used in this study is using the method of Multiple Linear Regression, F test and t test. Results of research and testing simultaneously known simultaneously, variable motivation , leadership significant effect on satisfaction. There are indicators with an average low of leadership and employee relationships, where employees feel a lack of harmony in the relationship between leaders and subordinates. The results of the study partially motivated significant effect on employee job satisfaction. Motivation in the form of superiors to subordinates approach has not been felt by employees, especially supervisors indifference. In addition, awards to employees who do not perform. Thus, employees who have no achievements strive to continually improve performance resulting into decreased job satisfaction. The results of the research for leadership variables partially significant effect on employee job satisfaction. Low motivation of employees in marketing products proactively savings, lack of initiative, and are still waiting for not doing proactive strategy. If this is allowed to continue would result in a decrease of performance appraisal which impact on the compensation received by the employee so as to reduce employee job satisfaction
Local spin spirals in the Neel phase of La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4
Experimental observations of lightly doped La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4, x < 0.02,
revealed remarkable magnetic properties such as the incommensurate noncollinear
ordering (additional to the Neel ordering) and a tremendous doping dependence
of the uniform longitudinal susceptibility. We show that the spiral solution of
the t-t'-t''-J model obtained by taking into account the Coulomb trapping of
holes by Sr ions describes these puzzling data perfectly well. Our solution
firstly explains why the incommensurate structure is directed along the
orthorhombic b-axis, and secondly allows a numerical calculation of the
positions and shapes of the incommensurate neutron scattering peaks. Thirdly,
we calculate the doping dependence of the spin-wave gap, and lastly, we study
the longitudinal magnetic susceptibility and show that its doping dependence is
due to the noncollinearity of the spin spiral.Comment: 13 pages, 8 figure
Strong Discontinuities in the Complex Photonic Band Structure of Transmission Metallic Gratings
Complex photonic band structures (CPBS) of transmission metallic gratings
with rectangular slits are shown to exhibit strong discontinuities that are not
evidenced in the usual energetic band structures. These discontinuities are
located on Wood's anomalies and reveal unambiguously two different types of
resonances, which are identified as horizontal and vertical surface-plasmon
resonances. Spectral position and width of peaks in the transmission spectrum
can be directly extracted from CPBS for both kinds of resonances.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, REVTeX version
