Magnetic phase diagram of the anisotropic multi-band Hubbard model

2007

Using quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations we determine the magnetic phase diagram of the anisotropic two-band Hubbard model within the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) in the important intermediate-coupling regime. We compare the QMC predictions with exact results from second-order weak-and strong-coupling perturbation theory. We find that the orbital-selective Mott transition (OSMT), which occurs in the fully frustrated case, is completely hidden in the antiferromagnetic (AF) ground state of the model. On the basis of our results, we discuss possible mechanisms of frustration. We also demonstrate the close relationship of the physics of the two-band Hubbard model in the orbital-selecti…

The bosonic analogs of topological insulators have been proposed in numerous theoretical works, but their experimental realization is still very rare, especially for spin systems. Recently, two-dim...

Néel Transition of Lattice Fermions in a Harmonic Trap: A Real-Space Dynamic Mean-Field Study

2010

We study the magnetic ordering transition for a system of harmonically trapped ultracold fermions with repulsive interactions in a cubic optical lattice, within a real-space extension of dynamical mean-field theory. Using a quantum Monte Carlo impurity solver, we establish that antiferromagnetic correlations are signaled, at strong coupling, by an enhanced double occupancy. This signature is directly accessible experimentally and should be observable well above the critical temperature for long-range order. Dimensional aspects appear less relevant than naively expected.

Dynamics and inertia of skyrmionic spin structures

2015

Understanding the motion of magnetic skyrmions is essential if they are to be used as information carriers in devices. It is now shown that topological confinement endows the skyrmions with an unexpectedly large mass, which plays a key role in their dynamics.

Ultracold atomic Bose and Fermi spinor gases in optical lattices

2006

We investigate magnetic properties of Mott-insulating phases of ultracold Bose and Fermi spinor gases in optical lattices. We consider in particular the F=2 Bose gas, and the F=3/2 and F=5/2 Fermi gases. We derive effective spin Hamiltonians for one and two atoms per site and discuss the possibilities of manipulating the magnetic properties of the system using optical Feshbach resonances. We discuss low temperature quantum phases of a 87Rb gas in the F=2 hyperfine state, as well as possible realizations of high spin Fermi gases with either 6Li or 132Cs atoms in the F=3/2 state, and with 173Yb atoms in the F=5/2 state.

Evolution of an isolated monopole in a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate

2016

We simulate the decay dynamics of an isolated monopole defect in the nematic vector of a spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensate during the polar-to-ferromagnetic phase transition of the system. Importantly, the decay of the monopole occurs in the absence of external magnetic fields and is driven principally by the dynamical instability due to the ferromagnetic spin-exchange interactions. An initial isolated monopole is observed to relax into a polar-core spin vortex, thus demonstrating the spontaneous transformation of a point defect of the polar order parameter manifold to a line defect of the ferromagnetic manifold. We also investigate the dynamics of an isolated monopole pierced by a quantum vo…

Quantum critical point in ferromagnet

2008

Abstract The heavy-fermion metal CePd 1 - x Rh x can be tuned from ferromagnetism at x = 0 to non-magnetic state at the critical concentration x c . The non-Fermi liquid behavior at x ≃ x c is recognized by power law dependence of the specific heat C ( T ) given by the electronic contribution, susceptibility χ ( T ) and volume expansion coefficient α ( T ) at low temperatures: C / T ∝ χ ( T ) ∝ α ( T ) / T ∝ 1 / T . We show that this alloy exhibits a universal thermodynamic non-Fermi liquid behavior independent of magnetic ground state. This can be well understood utilizing the quasiparticle picture and the concept of fermion condensation quantum phase transition at the density ρ = p F 3 / …

Dynamical mean-field theory versus second-order perturbation theory for the trapped two-dimensional Hubbard antiferromagnet

2011

In recent literature on trapped ultracold atomic gases, calculations for two-dimensional (2D) systems are often done within the dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT) approximation. In this paper, we compare DMFT to a fully 2D, self-consistent second-order perturbation theory for weak interactions in a repulsive Fermi-Hubbard model. We investigate the role of quantum and of spatial fluctuations when the system is in the antiferromagnetic phase, and find that, while quantum fluctuations decrease drastically the order parameter and critical temperatures, spatial fluctuations only play a noticeable role when the system undergoes a phase transition, or at phase boundaries in the trap. We conclude f…

One-dimensional iron(III) and two-dimensional iron(III)nickel(II) cyanide-bridged ferromagnetic arrays from hexacyanoferrate(III) and [Ni(cyclam)]2+ …

1999

Abstract The X-ray structures and magnetic properties of a iron(III) linear chain and a honeycomb-like layered iron(III)-nickel(II) cyanide-bridged compound are reported. The former contains alternating iron sites and unexpected ferromagnetic behaviour, justified on the basis of the axial distortion from regular octahedral geometry of one of the iron ions. The latter is metamagnetic with ferromagnetic intralayers and antiferromagnetic interlayers interactions with a Neel temperature, TN= 7.7 K. The field-induced transition from an antiferro- to a ferromagnetic state takes place at Hc= 5000 G. The antiferromagnetic ordered phase exhibits spin-canting and long range ferromagnetic ordering at …

A stable oxoverdazyl free radical: Structural and magnetic characterization

2006

Abstract The structure and magnetic properties (susceptibility and ESR) of the stable oxoverdazyl free radical 6-(4-acetamidophenyl)-1,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2,4-dimethyl-1,2,4,5-tetrazin-3(2H)-one are presented. The crystal structure consists of chains of parallel planar molecules running along the b-axis. These chains are formed by dimers with a ring-over-bond overlap and a significant offset between dimers, although with similar inter- and intradimer distances. The susceptibility measurements show that this compound is an S = 1/2 paramagnet with weak antiferromagnetic interactions. The magnetic susceptibility can be very well reproduced with an antiferromagnetic regular chain model with g = 2.…
