量子自旋液体的实验鉴定

Experimental identification of quantum spin liquids

Jinsheng Wen, Shun-Li Yu, Shiyan Li, Weiqiang Yu, Jian-Xin Li

摘要:

在凝聚态物理中,存在一种称为“量子自旋液体“的新相,其中强的量子涨落阻止了长程磁有序的建立,因此电子自旋不形成有序图案,但即使在绝对零度下也保持“液体”状。这种相变不涉及任何自发对称性破缺和局域序参量,对它的理解也超出了传统的相变理论。由于量子自旋液体具有丰富的物理性质和奇异的性质,如长程纠缠和分数量子激发等,在量子通信和量子计算中具有巨大的应用潜力,自1973年P.W.安德森目前,量子自旋液体的实验鉴定仍然是一个巨大的挑战。在这里,我们强调了最近取得的一些有趣的实验进展。我们还讨论了一些悬而未决的问题,并提出了我们认为对未来的研究是重要的问题。

英文摘要:

In condensed matter physics, there is a novel phase termed "quantum spin liquid", in which strong quantum fluctuations prevent the long-range magnetic order from being established, and so the electron spins do not form an ordered pattern but remain "liquid" like even at absolute zero temperature. Such a phase is not involved with any spontaneous symmetry breaking and local order parameter, and to understand it is beyond the conventional phase transition theory. Due to the rich physics and exotic properties of quantum spin liquids, such as the long-range entanglement and fractional quantum excitations, which are believed to hold great potentials in quantum communication and computation, they have been intensively studied since the concept was proposed in 1973 by P. W. Anderson. Currently, experimental identifications of a quantum spin liquid still remain as a great challenge. Here, we highlight some interesting experimental progress that has been made recently. We also discuss some outstanding issues and raise questions that we consider to be important for future research.
