A new kind of spin-1 chain Hamiltonian consisting of competing dimer and trimer projection operators is proposed. As the relative strengths and signs of the interactions are varied, the model exhibits a number of different phases including the gapped dimer phase and the gapless trimer phase with critical correlations described by a conformal field theory with central charge $c=2$. A symmetry-protected topological phase also exists in this model, even though the microscopic interactions are not the simple adiabatic extensions of the well-known Heisenberg and the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki model and contains both two- and three-particle permutations. A fourth phase is characterized by macroscopically degenerate ground states. While bearing almost a one-to-one resemblance to the phase diagram of the bilinear-biquadratic spin-1 chain Hamiltonian, our model is rooted on very different physical origin, namely the two competing tendencies of spin-1 particles to form singlets through either dimer or trimer formation.

我们研究的反铁磁自旋半海森堡阶梯中存在一个额外的令人沮丧的梯级自旋的动机和相关的真实的二维材料,如二维三聚体磁体Ba $_4$ Ir $_3$ O $_{10}$的描述。我们研究的零温度相图,在那里我们结合数值和分析方法到一个整体一致的描述。所有的数值模拟也伴随着通过密度矩阵重整化群获得的动力学自旋结构因子的研究。总的来说,我们发现在政权的强横档耦合一个缺口二聚相有关的竞争对称部门在希尔伯特空间,最终导致挫折驱动的自旋佩尔斯转变。在弱梯级耦合区,系统是均匀的,但显示出一个带隙的自旋连续体,以及一个尖锐的相干低能分支,使系统的整体临界。在任何一种情况下,附加的梯级自旋很快就被排除在外,一旦它们与梯子的裸耦合下降到略低于腿的直接海森堡耦合,它们就几乎解耦。
Photoinduced Enhancement of Anisotropic Charge Correlations on Triangular Lattices with Trimers
为了探索电荷相关性的非平凡光致调制,我们理论上研究了四分之一填充扩展哈伯德模型中的光致动力学,其中三聚体的三角晶格上具有竞争性的位间排斥相互作用,其中端点是晶体学上等价的。采用精确对角化方法,数值求解光激发期间和之后的时间相关薛定谔方程。时间平均双占有率和intersite密度密度相关性可以解释为由于有效的现场和intersite排斥相互作用,分别相对于转移能量。在其中位点间排斥相互作用彼此竞争的情况下,它们的有效相互作用的各向异性可以在三聚体的帮助下增强,而不管三聚体是线性的还是弯曲的。特别地,在三聚体的排列接近于金属相中的$α$ -(双[亚乙基二硫代]-四硫富瓦烯)$_2$ I $_3$ [ $α$ -(BEDT-TTF)$_2$ I $_3$ ]中的排列的情况下,有效的原位排斥相对于转移能增强。这一理论发现的实验观察到的光学冻结电荷运动的相关性进行了讨论。
