Lara Thompson, Patrick Lee

摘要:

最近的测量Ba $_3$ CuSb $_2$ O $_9$的启发,我们探讨了自旋和轨道的相互作用,在一个三角形晶格的自由度可能的自旋液体的行为。我们的有效哈密顿描述的磁性铜层通过考虑沿中间O的超交换路径。有序状态的平均场研究揭示了一个轨道有序的基态,隔离成自旋链的自旋自由度。这种情况下,自然解释线性比热为$T\to 0$,并通过包括额外的缺陷铜的坐在三角形平面的影响,我们发现显着的协议与测得的磁化率。

英文摘要:

Inspired by recent measurements on Ba$_3$CuSb$_2$O$_9$, we explore the interplay of spin and orbital degrees of freedom in a triangular lattice for possible spin liquid-like behaviour. Our effective Hamiltonian describes the magnetic Cu layer by considering superexchange paths along the intermediate O's. A mean field study of ordered states reveals an orbitally ordered ground state that isolates the spin degrees of freedom into spin chains. This scenario naturally explains the linear specific heat as $T\to 0$ and, by including the effects of additional defect Cu's sitting off the triangular planes, we find remarkable agreement with the measured magnetic susceptibility.
