AI总结:

本文提出经典烧绿石 Heisenberg 反铁磁体中可出现子晶格配对的反平行螺旋态,并通过扩展 nematic bond theory 至非 Bravais 晶格及自旋波计算验证其低温稳定与共面性。

摘要:

我们论证了,具有较小的更远邻耦合的经典烧绿石 Heisenberg 反铁磁体可以有序化为一种状态,其中成对的子晶格形成反平行螺旋。这两对子晶格的螺旋有序波矢通常彼此不同,并受到哪些子晶格被配对的约束。这种子晶格配对态通常会破坏反演对称性和大多数旋转对称性。它的存在依赖于反铁磁最近邻耦合,该耦合倾向于使每个四面体上的自旋之和为零。为了证实我们的论证,我们将 nematic bond theory(一种图解的大-$N_s$ 方法)扩展到非 Bravais 晶格,并证明所预测的状态确实在交换耦合空间的一个较大区域内于低温下实现。我们还进行了自旋波计算,结果表明子晶格配对态是共面的。

英文摘要:

We argue that classical pyrochlore Heisenberg antiferromagnets with small further-neighbor couplings can order in a state where pairs of sublattices form antiparallel spirals. The spiral ordering wave vectors of the two pairs are in general different from each other, and are constrained by which sublattices are being paired. This sublattice pairing state generally breaks inversion and most rotation symmetries. Its existence depends on the antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor coupling which favors the spins on each tetrahedron to sum to zero. To substantiate our argument, we extend the nematic bond theory; a diagrammatic large-$N_s$ method, to non-Bravais lattices, and we demonstrate that the predicted state is indeed realized at low temperatures in a large region of exchange coupling space. We also carry out a spin wave calculation which suggests that the sublattice pairing state is coplanar.
