3 Outline Introduction to quantum magnetism on triangular and anisotropic triangular lattices Magnetic order, spin liquid,... Cs2 CuCl 4, dimensional reduction, and low temperature phases of anisotropic triangular lattice antiferromagnets
4 Frustration and triangles Simplest idea: pairwise exchange interactions cannot be simultaneously satisfied geometric frustration But this is a bit simplistic, and overstates the problem
5 Triangular Ising model Wannier (1950): thermodynamic ground state degeneracy Ω = e S/k B S 0.34Nk B 1 frustrated bond per triangle Classical Ising model does not order at any T>0 but very sensitive, and no known examples of this
6 Heisenberg Systems H = J ij S i S j Unlike the Ising model, this is not intrinsically classical However, it turns out that the semi-classical spin wave expansion tends to work well even for small S (unfortunately!) We may still ask about the degeneracy in the classical limit
7 Classical ground state Spins must sum to zero
8 Classical ground state Degrees of freedom: 2
9 Classical ground state Degrees of freedom: 2+1
10 Classical ground state Degrees of freedom: 2+1 order parameter is SO(3) matrix S i =Re ψ(ˆn 1 + iˆn 2 )e iq r i
11 Quantum Spin Liquid (QSL) Anderson (1973) proposed Resonating Valence Bond (RVB) state of S=1/2 Heisenberg magnets Fazekas + Anderson (1974) made first calculations suggesting this for the triangular lattice in particular Ψ = Valence bond = spin singlet VB = 1 2 ( )
12 Reality: 120 state Semi-classical ordered state has been verified for S=1/2 spins by exact diagonalization and other numerics. best estimate Ms = ±0.015 compare full moment Ms =0.5, spin wave theory gives M s =0.24
13 Hubbard Model If charge fluctuations are strong, reduction to the Heisenberg model is not accurate H = t ij c iα c jα + U i n i (n i 1) H = J ij S i S j + K 4 P P 1234 Calculations (Imada, Motrunich, Lee2 ) suggest QSL state at intermediate t/u (K/J > 0.15)

31 Dimensional reduction? Frustration of interchain coupling makes it less relevant First order energy correction vanishes Interchain correlations are established only at O[(J )4 /J 3 ]! Other smaller interchain interactions can dominate Elementary excitations of 1d chains - spinons - form a good basis for excitations of the coupled system
32 Dimensional reduction? Numerics show that correlations are weak for J /J < 0.7 Weng et al, 2006 Very different from spin wave theory Very weak inter-chain correlations

36 Strategy Quantitative understanding of high energy neutron scattering implies that a description in terms of weakly correlated spin chains is appropriate Use the low energy field theory of the decoupled spin chains to study the low energy physics when they are coupled This field theory is critical (i.e. the system is gapless), with conformal invariance Use renormalization group methods to study the coupling
37 Operators For example, in zero magnetic field: N: Néel vector N ε: staggered dimerization ε>0 ε<0
38 Inter-chain exchange Translates into operator couplings e.g. rectangular lattice J H J dx N y N y+1 Triangular lattice J J J H J dx N y x N y+1 reflection symmetry
39 Power counting Operators scale like L -Δ, with scaling dimension Δ e.g. Δ(N)=1/2. Dimensionless coupling, measured with respect to v k ~ v/l: e.g. rectangular lattice H J dx N y N y+1 g (L) J L L 2 v/l J v L2 2 J v L relevant interaction: generates Néel order at kt~v/l~j
40 Power counting Operators scale like L -Δ, with scaling dimension Δ e.g. Δ(N)=1/2. Dimensionless coupling, measured with respect to v k ~ v/l: triangular lattice H J dx N y x N y+1 g (L) J L L 2 1 v/l J v marginal interaction: exponentially weak effects?
41 Fluctuations Relevant couplings between second neighbor chains are allowed H g 2 dx N y N y+2 Interactions of this type are generated by fluctuations a nasty calculation shows g2 ~ (J ) 4 /v 3 leads to commensurate, collinear AF order with ktc ~ g 2 O. Starykh + LB, 2007

43 DM Cs2 CuCl 4 has a spiral ground state! This is due to Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions H D = Dẑ S x,y H D D S x 1 2,y+1 S x+ 1 2,y+1 dx ẑ N y N y+1 This leads to spiral order with kt ~ D ~ 0.05J >> (J )4 /v 3 ~ (0.3) 4 J ~ 0.008J
44 Behavior in a field The approach is readily generalized to arbitrary magnetic fields Need to understand the operator content of the Heisenberg chain in a field Crucial fact: anisotropic correlations N = N x N y N z N ± S z π±2δ ± < 1/2 XY-like correlations transverse to field z > 1/2 incommensurate SDW correlations parallel to field 2δ=2πM

The DM-induced order is strengthened by the field, because Δ decreases length N ± decreases approaching saturation
50 In-plane field DM and field compete to establish the z axis When g μb B >> D, the field establishes the axis: H D D dx N y + S2δ,y+1e z i2δx +h.c. Due to the oscillation, D is now strongly irrelevant Expect to see ideal J-J behavior?
51 No! Reason: J exchange between triangular planes is unfrustrated and not suppressed by the field another strongly relevant perturbation Y. Tokiwa et al, 2006 It is only slightly weaker than D, and takes over when D is washed out by the field B a: many phases
52 Correlated planes? Due to small J << J, J, it is natural to view Cs2 CuCl 4 in terms of correlated b-c planes of spins a c b
53 Correlated planes? But actually, when the magnetic field is in the b-c plane, the spins are more correlated in a-b planes perpendicular to the triangular layers! a c b
54 Extreme sensitivity Order in the a-b planes further amplifies the effects of very weak but unfrustrated interactions (of 1% of J or so) Second neighbor exchange J2 Fluctuation-generated 4-spin interactions Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya coupling Dc on the chain bonds

56 Results vs. Experiment (b) h b T a commensurate state stabilized by very weak (fluctuation-generated) 4- spin interactions (and possibly J 2 ) (c) DM spiral ~ h c T D AF Cone hsat FP h AF Y. Tokiwa et al, 2006 DM spiral ~ D IC AF Cone hsat FP h AF B a: many phases
57 AF state The AF state has a period of 4 chains in the triangular plane consistent with neutron scattering for B c which observed a commensurate state with this periodicity (R. Coldea) Commensurate state also observed by NMR in this field range (M. Takigawa)
58 Results vs. Experiment (b) h b T (c) DM spiral ~ h c T D AF Cone FP h hsat an incommensurate state, in which the AF order is deformed by D c AF Y. Tokiwa et al, 2006 DM spiral ~ D IC AF Cone hsat FP h IC AF B a: many phases
59 IC State Incommensurate state deformed from AF one by spiraling spins in opposite directions on even and odd chains Evidence for incommensurate state seen in NMR (Takigawa) Neutron data looks very similar to AF state. However, wavevector of incommensurability is expected to be very small (<2%), which may be too small to resolve.
60 Summary Frustration has strong effects on S=1/2 spatially anisotropic triangular antiferromagnets It greatly enhances the regime of quasi-one-dimensionality It leads to tremendous sensitivity to weak perturbations, producing a very complex phase diagram Some additional source of fluctuations (other interactions, charge fluctuations...) is needed to obtain a true QSL state
