Phase transitions of two spin-1/2 Baxter–Wu layers coupled with Ising-type interactions

Using a Monte Carlo simulation and the single histogram reweighting technique,we study the critical behaviors and phase transitions of the Baxter-Wu(BW)model on a two-layer triangular lattice with Ising-type interlayer couplings.Via the finite-size analysis,we obtain the transition temperatures and critical exponents at repulsive and attractive interlayer couplings.The data for the repulsive interlayer coupling suggest continuous transitions,and the critical behaviors are the same as those of the 2D BW model,belonging to the four-state Potts universality class.The reduced energy cumulants and the histograms reveal that attractive coupling leads to weak firstorder phase transitions.The pseudocritical exponents with the existence of the interlayer couplings indicate that the first-order transition is very close to the critical point of the 2D standard BW model.

Self-organized synchronization phenomena in a spatiotemporal coupled Lorenz model and its emergent abilities

We propose a new spatiotemporal coupled Lorenz model that consists of three temporal coupling coefficients and three spatial coupling coefficients. And we find that self-organized phase transition phenomena appear in this model and manifestations of emergent abilities of this model through the implementation to the mutually connected neural networks.     

Quantum Treatment of Intermolecular Multiple-Quantum Coherences with IntramolecularJCoupling in Solution NMR

A recently introduced density matrix picture for dipolar effects in solution NMR (1996,J. Chem. Phys.105,874) gave complete solutions for intermolecular multiple-quantum coherences for single-component samples without scalar couplings. This paper, for the first time, shows that this quantum picture can lead to explicit signal expressions for multicomponent samples of molecules with internal scalar couplings (here assumed to generate a first-order spectrum) and long-range dipolar couplings. Experimental observation of a triplet in the indirectly detected dimension for a heteronuclear CRAZED sequence (¹³CHCl₃sample, ZQ or 2Q coherences) gives clear evidence that the coupling is due to the intermolecular dipolar coupling. We also make comparisons with classical pictures which introduce the dipolar demagnetization field in multicomponent spin systems.     

Nature of spin-lattice coupling in two-dimensional CrI_3 and CrGeTe_3

Spin-lattice (SL) coupling plays an important role in spintronic applications given its effects on magnetic,ferroelectric,optical,and thermodynamic properties.Experiments and theoretical calculations have revealed a large SL coupling effect in CrGeTe_3 and CrI_3 monolayers.However,the microscopic origin of SL coupling in these systems is still unclear.In this work,we develop a systematic method to explore the atomistic mechanism of SL coupling based on the density functional theory.We find that the first-and second-order SL couplings in ternary system CrGeTe_3 are considerably stronger than those in binary system CrI_3.For the first-order SL coupling,the Cr ions of the magnetic pair and Ge ions positively contribute to the strain enhancement of ferromagnetism in CrGeTe_3.However,the Cr ions provide a negative contribution in CrI_3.Furthermore,our tight-binding analysis suggests that the p-d hopping in CrGeTe_3 gradually decreases with the tensile strain,rapidly enhancing the ferromagnetism under the tensile strain.The large frequency shifts in CrGeTe_3 are caused by the large second-order exchange derivatives (one type of second-order SL coupling) of the Cr ions of the magnetic pair.     

Evidence for a dipolar-coupled AM system in carnosine in human calf muscle from in vivo 1H NMR spectroscopy

Spin systems with residual dipolar couplings such as creatine, taurine, and lactate in skeletal muscle tissue exhibit first-order spectra in in vivo 1H NMR spectroscopy at 1.5 T because the coupled protons are represented by (nearly) symmetrized eigenfunctions. The imidazole ring protons (H2, H4) of carnosine are suspected to form also a coupled system. The ring's stiffness could enable a connectivity between these anisochronous protons with the consequence of second-order spectra at low field strength. Our purpose was to study whether this deviation from the Paschen-Back condition can be used to detect the H2-H4 coupling in localized 1D 1H NMR spectra obtained at 1.5 T (64 MHz) from the human calf in a conventional whole-body scanner. As for the hydrogen hyperfine interaction, a Breit-Rabi equation was derived to describe the transition from Zeeman to Paschen-Back regime for two dipolar-coupled protons. The ratio of the measurable coupling strength (Sk) and the difference in resonance frequencies of the coupled spins (Deltaomega) induces quantum-state mixing of various degree upon definition of an appropriate eigenbase of the coupled spin system. The corresponding Clebsch-Gordan coefficients manifest in characteristic energy corrections in the Breit-Rabi formula. These additional terms were used to define an asymmetry parameter of the line positions as a function of Sk and Deltaomega. The observed frequency shifts of the resonances were found to be consistent with this parameter within the accuracy achievable in in vivo NMR spectroscopy. Thus it was possible to identify the origin of satellite peaks of H2, H4 and to describe this so far not investigated type of residual dipolar coupling in vivo.     

含负折射介质的反向定向耦合器的时空不稳定性研究

研究含负折射介质的不对称反向定向耦合器中的时空调制不稳定性(MI),探讨了输入功率、前向波和后向波功率比和通道间的耦合系数等对时空MI的影响。结果表明:在这种新型耦合器中只有当横向波数超过一定阈值时才会产生MI,增加输入功率或减少前向波和后向波的功率比都会扩大MI增益谱的范围并最终使MI区域重合,而降低耦合器通道间的耦合系数可减少MI的增益峰值但拓宽增益谱的范围。负折射介质的电磁参数可调谐特性为实现MI的主动调控和孤子的形成提供了新的方法和手段。

High resolution C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra for symmetrical orthodihalobenzenes including long-range CH couplings

Analysis of high resolution ¹³C NMR spectra for symmetrical orthodihalobenzenes have provided all long-range ¹³CH coupling values in orthodichloro-, dibromo-, and diiodobenzene. Furthermore, since the analyses were sensitive to the sign of the coupling constants, the relative signs of these long-range ¹³CH couplings have been determined from unique spectral fits. The substituent effects on the chemical shifts in this series of compounds appear to be additive. The ¹³CH couplings are compared with coupling values in other compounds and are shown to be related to substituent electronegativity. The absolute magnitude of the ¹³CH couplings for these halogen-substituted compounds are larger than those observed in benzene, with but one exception. In all cases, three-bonded ¹³CH couplings are found to be larger than the two-bond values.     

Three-mode coupling in a passive dielectric waveguide with index modulation

The characteristics of a three-mode coupling in a passive dielectric waveguide are investigated for the case of even TE modes. The index is assumed to have a doubly periodic harmonic variation in the propagation direction. By a singular perturbation procedure using multiple space scales, the coupled-mode equations governing the Bragg interactions are systematically deduced. The three-mode coupling causes a stop band in frequency and the characteristics of the resulting evanescent mode are analyzed. For a periodic dielectric waveguide of finite length, the three coupled-mode equations are solved subject to suitable boundary conditions to obtain the reflection and the transmission coefficients. The frequency response of the reflection and the transmission coefficients are investigated and compared with the results of the pair of corresponding two-mode couplings. Representative numerical results are presented to illustrate the characteristics of the interaction of the three modes.     

Evolution of the exact spatiotemporal periodic wave and soliton solutions of the (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with distributed coefficients

In this paper the spatiotemporal evolution of the periodic wave is investigated analytically when the laser passes through the inhomogeneous nonlinear medium. Firstly, the (3 + 1)-dimensional generalized nonlinear Schrödinger equation with distributed coefficients is solved analytically by an improved homogeneous balance principle and F-expansion technique. A number of exact periodic traveling wave and spatiotemporal soliton solutions are obtained. Then, their propagation characteristics are analyzed in detail. It is found that the evolutions of propagation of spatiotemporal soliton and periodic wave solutions are regular when the diffraction and dispersion coefficients are the identical distributed coefficients, but the evolutions of propagation of these solutions are irregular with other coefficients.     

Baryon-antibaryon asymmetry in a model with domain structure and soft CP violation

We consider a model with an abelian gauge symmetry, a Higgs potential involving two scalar fields, and two spinor fields coupled to the scalars through Yukawa couplings. The model accomodates soft violation of charge conjugation, and a domain structure of the universe with two different types of domains, which have identical energy but are governed by different effective lagrangians. The effective lagrangian has complex c-number coefficients that become parts of effective coupling constants, and these are different in the two kinds of domains. In spite of that fact the model neither predicts any domain-dependent effects, nor any particle-antiparticle asymmetries within domains.     

Discrete solitons in zigzag waveguide arrays with different types of linear mixing between nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor couplings

We study discrete solitons in zigzag discrete waveguide arrays with different types of linear mixing between nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor couplings. The waveguide array is constructed from two layers of one-dimensional (1D) waveguide arrays arranged in zigzag form. If we alternately label the number of waveguides between the two layers, the cross-layer couplings (which couple one waveguide in one layer with two adjacent waveguides in the other layer) construct the nearest-neighbor couplings, while the couplings that couple this waveguide with the two nearest-neighbor waveguides in the same layer, i.e., self-layer couplings, contribute the next-nearest-neighbor couplings. Two families of discrete solitons are found when these couplings feature different types of linear mixing. As the total power is increased, a phase transition of the second kind occurs for discrete solitons in one type of setting, which is formed when the nearest-neighbor coupling and next-nearest-neighbor coupling feature positive and negative linear mixing, respectively. The mobilities and collisions of these two families of solitons are discussed systematically throughout the paper, revealing that the width of the soliton plays an important role in its motion. Moreover, the phase transition strongly influences the motions and collisions of the solitons.     

Density-functional theory calculation of the nuclear magnetic resonance indirect nuclear spin—spin coupling constants in C60

Density-functional theory is used to study the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) indirect nuclear spin-spin coupling constants in C₆₀. Knowledge of these coupling constants may help in the analysis of future experimental NMR studies of ¹³C-enriched C₆₀. At the Becke 3-parameter Lee-Yang-Parr (B3LYP) Kohn-Sham level, the one-bond couplings within pentagons and between pentagons are 62 Hz and 77 Hz, respectively; the corresponding geminal couplings are 7 Hz and 1 Hz, respectively. Except for the vicinal couplings (about 4 Hz), the long-range couplings are all 1 Hz or smaller. This is the largest theoretical calculation to date of the complete set of indirect nuclear spin-spin coupling constants of a molecular system; it has been made possible by solving the response equations only for the perturbing operators related to one nuclear magnetic moment, making the calculation feasible.     

A Few Expanding Integrable Models,Hamiltonian Structures and Constrained Flows

Two kinds of higher-dimensional Lie algebras and their loop algebras are introduced, for which a few expanding integrable models including the coupling integrable couplings of the Broer-Kaup (BK) hierarchy and the dispersive long wave (DLW) hierarchy as well as the TB hierarchy are obtained. From the reductions of the coupling integrable couplings, the corresponding coupled integrable couplings of the BK equation, the DLW equation, and the TB equation are obtained, respectively. Especially, thecoupling integrable coupling of the TB equation reduces to a few integrable couplings of the well-known mKdV equation. The Hamiltonian structures of the coupling integrable couplings of the three kinds of soliton hierarchies are worked out, respectively, by employing the variational identity. Finally, we decompose the BK hierarchy of evolution equations into x-constrained flows and t_n-constrained flows whose adjoint representations and the Lax pairs are given.     

Synchronization of globally coupled phase oscillators: singularities and scaling for general couplings

The onset of collective behavior in a population of globally coupled oscillators with randomly distributed frequencies is studied for phase dynamical models with arbitrary coupling; the effect of a stochastic temporal variation in the frequencies is also included. The Fokker-Planck equation for the coupled Langevin system is reduced to a kinetic equation for the oscillator distribution function. Instabilities of the phase-incoherent state are studied by center manifold reduction to the amplitude dynamics of the unstable modes. Depending on the coupling, the coefficients in the normal form can be singular in the limit of weak instability when the diffusive effect of the noise is neglected. A detailed analysis of these singularities to all orders in the normal form expansion is presented. Physically, the singularities are interpreted as predicting an altered scaling of the entrained component near the onset of synchronization. These predictions are verified by numerically solving the kinetic equation for various couplings and frequency distributions.     

Strong bonding magnetic plasmon hybridizations in double split-ring resonators

The complex magnetic dipole plasmon couplings in double split-ring resonators are investigated. Two split peaks in the absorption spectrum of these coupled systems are observed, but even the shorter-wavelength resonance peak can be redshifted compared to the peaks of individual rings. The magnetic plasmon fields outside rings are found to play an important role in these strong couplings. Because of them, both bonding and antibonding plasmon hybridizations occur at each split peak. When bonding coupling effects are stronger than those of antibonding ones, this abnormal splitting behavior appears. When the coupling between rings becomes weaker, the splitting phenomenon tends to be normal.

Phase diagram of the one-dimensional extended Hubbard model at half filling

We reexamine the ground-state phase diagram of the one-dimensional half-filled Hubbard model with on-site and nearest-neighbor repulsive interactions. We calculate second-order corrections to coupling constants in the weak-coupling renormalization-group approach ( g-ology) to show that the bond-charge-density-wave (BCDW) phase exists for weak couplings in between the charge-density-wave (CDW) and spin-density-wave (SDW) phases. We find that the umklapp scattering of parallel-spin electrons destabilizes the BCDW state and gives rise to a bicritical point where the CDW-BCDW and SDW-BCDW continuous-transition lines merge into the CDW-SDW first-order transition line.
