Critical spin dynamics of the 2D quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnets Sr2CuO2Cl2 and Sr2Cu3O4Cl2

We report a neutron scattering study of the long-wavelength dynamic spin correlations in the model two-dimensional S = 1/2 square lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnets Sr2CuO2Cl2 and Sr2Cu3O4Cl2. The characteristic energy scale, omega(0)(T/J), is determined by measuring the quasielastic peak width in the paramagnetic phase over a wide range of temperature ( 0.2 less similarT/J less similar0.7). The obtained values for omega(0)(T/J) agree quantitatively between the two compounds and also with values deduced from quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The combined data show scaling behavior, omega approximately xi(-z), over the entire temperature range with z = 1.0(1), in agreement with dynamic scaling theory.     

Accurate prediction of large antiferromagnetic interactions in high- T(c) HgBa2Ca(n-1)Cu(n)O(2n+2+delta) ( n = 2,3) superconductor parent compounds

The in-plane nearest-neighbor Heisenberg magnetic coupling constant, J, of La2CuO4, Nd2CuO4, Sr2CuO2Cl2, YBa2Cu3O6, and undoped HgBa(2)Ca(n-1)Cu(n)O(2n+2+delta) ( n = 1,2,3) is calculated from accurate ab initio configuration interaction calculations. For the first four compounds, the theoretical J values are in quantitative agreement with experiment. For the Hg-based compounds the predicted values are -135 meV ( n = 1) and approximately -160 meV ( n = 2,3), the latter being much larger than in previous cases and, for n = 3, increasing with pressure. Nevertheless, the physics governing J in all these layered cuprates appears to be the same. Moreover, calculations suggest a possible relationship between J and T(c).     

Spin dynamics and magnetic correlation length in two-dimensional quantum heisenberg antiferromagnets

The correlated spin dynamics and temperature dependence of the correlation length xi(T) in two-dimensional quantum (S = 1/2) Heisenberg antiferromagnets (2DQHAF) on a square lattice are discussed in light of experimental results of proton spin lattice relaxation in copper formiate tetradeuterate. In this compound the exchange constant is much smaller than the one in recently studied 2DQHAF, such as La2CuO4 and Sr2CuO2Cl2. Thus the spin dynamics can be probed in detail over a wider temperature range. The NMR relaxation rates turn out to be in excellent agreement with a theoretical mode-coupling calculation. The deduced temperature behavior of xi(T) is in agreement with high-temperature expansions, quantum Monte Carlo simulations, and the pure quantum self-consistent harmonic approximation. Contrary to the predictions of the theories based on the nonlinear sigma model, no evidence of crossover between different quantum regimes is observed.     

Field-induced freezing of a quantum spin liquid on the kagome lattice

We report (17)O NMR measurements in the S=1/2 (Cu(2+)) kagome antiferromagnet Herbertsmithite ZnCu(3)(OH)(6)Cl(2) down to 45 mK in magnetic fields ranging from 2 to 12 T. While Herbertsmithite displays a gapless spin-liquid behavior in zero field, we uncover an instability toward a spin-solid phase at sub-Kelvin temperature induced by an applied magnetic field. The latter phase shows largely suppressed moments ?0.1 μ(B) and gapped excitations. The H-T phase diagram suggests the existence of a quantum critical point at the small but finite magnetic field μ(0)H(c)=1.55(25) T. We discuss this finding in light of the perturbative Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction which was theoretically proposed to sustain a quantum critical regime for the quantum kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnet model.     

第一性原理研究O和S掺杂的石墨相氮化碳(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点电子结构和光吸收性质

利用密度泛函和含时密度泛函理论研究了氧(O)和硫(S)原子掺杂的石墨相氮化碳(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点的几何、电子结构和紫外-可见光吸收性质.结果表明:掺杂后(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点杂质原子周围的C-N键长发生了一定的改变,最高电子占据分子轨道-最低电子未占据分子轨道(HOMO-LUMO)能隙显著减小.形成能的计算表明O原子取代掺杂的(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点体系更稳定,且O原子更易取代N3位点,而S原子更易取代N8位点.模拟的紫外-可见电子吸收光谱表明,O和S原子的掺杂改善了(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点的光吸收,使其吸收范围覆盖了整个可见光区域,甚至扩展到了红外区.而且适当的杂质浓度使(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点光吸收在强度和范围上都得到明显改善.通过O和S掺杂的比较,发现二者在可见光区对(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点的光吸收有相似的影响,然而在长波长区域二者的影响有明显差异.总体而言,O掺杂要优于S掺杂对(g-C_3N_4)_6量子点光吸收的影响.     

(17) O NMR study of the intrinsic magnetic susceptibility and spin dynamics of the quantum kagome antiferromagnet ZnCu3(OH)(6)Cl(2)

We report, through 17O NMR, an unambiguous local determination of the intrinsic kagome lattice spin susceptibility as well as that created around nonmagnetic defects arising from natural Zn/Cu exchange in the S=1/2 (Cu2+) herbertsmithite ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2 compound. The issue of a singlet-triplet gap is addressed. The magnetic response around a defect is found to markedly differ from that observed in nonfrustrated antiferromagnets. Finally, we discuss our relaxation measurements in the light of Cu and Cl NMR data and suggest a flat q dependence of the excitations.     

Competition between Quantum Interference and Stimulated Electronic Raman Scattering Processes via Hybrid Excitation in a Na2-Na System

An experimental observation of the competition between quantum interference and stimulated electronic Raman scattering (SERS) via equal-frequency hybrid excitation and collision-aided radiative excitation in a Na2-Na system is reported for the first time.It is found that the SERS for 3P1/2,3/2-4P are suppressed and the optically pumped stimulated emission (OPSE) for 5S-4P are enhanced dramatically at a particular excitation wavelength where constructive quantum interference between two transitions 3P1/2-5S and 3P3/2-5S in atomic sodium takes place.A theoretical analysis based on the dressed-atom approach is carried out to explain the experimental results.

Low-temperature broken-symmetry phases of spiral antiferromagnets

We study Heisenberg antiferromagnets with nearest- (J1) and third- (J3) neighbor exchange on the square lattice. In the limit of spin S-->infinity, there is a zero temperature (T) Lifshitz point at J(3)=1/4J(1), with long-range spiral spin order at T=0 for J3>1/4J(1). We present classical Monte Carlo simulations and a theory for T>0 crossovers near the Lifshitz point: spin rotation symmetry is restored at any T>0, but there is a broken lattice reflection symmetry for 0< or =T相似文献   

Theoretical Study of Collision-Induced Double Transitions in CO(2)-X(2) (X(2) = H(2), N(2), and O(2)) Pairs

The double vibrational collision-induced absorptions CO(2) (nu(3) = 1) + X(2) (nu(1) = 1) <-- CO(2) (nu(3) = 0) + X(2) (nu(1) = 0), for X(2) = H(2), N(2), and O(2) are studied on the basis of quantum lineshapes computed using isotropic potentials and dipole-induced dipole functions. The linestrengths and energies of the vibration-rotation transitions are treated explicitly for X(2) and utilizing the HITRAN database for CO(2). From the frequency-dependent absorption profiles, the integrated absorption intensities are determined to be 7.2 +/- 1.2, 1.2 +/- 0.1, and 1.1 +/- 0.2 (10(-4) cm(-2) amagat(-2)) for the H(2), N(2), and O(2) collision partners, respectively. The integrated intensities for H(2) and N(2) agree well with previously measured and calculated results, while the value for O(2), which represents the first theoretical determination for this absorption, is approximately four times greater than the only experimental measurement (0.29 x 10(-4) cm(-2) amagat(-2)).

Theoretical investigation of the oxidation pathways of the Cl-initiated reaction of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol

The mechanism and products of the reaction of 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol (MBO232) with Cl atoms in the presence of O₂ have been elucidated by performing high-level quantum chemistry calculations. The geometries of the reactants, intermediates, transition states, and products are optimized at the MP2(full)/6-311G(d,?p) level, and their single-point energies are refined at the CCSD(T)/6-311?+?G(d,?p) level. The potential energy surface profiles have been constructed at the CCSD(T)/6-311?+?G(d,?p)//MP2(full)/6-311G(d,?p)?+?0.95?×?ZPE level of theory, and the possible channels involved in the reaction are also discussed. The calculations indicate that the reaction predominantly proceeds via the addition of Cl atoms to the double bond rather than the direct abstraction of the H atoms in MBO232. The nascent adducts (CH₃)₂C(OH)CHCH₂Cl (IM1) and (CH₃)₂C(OH)CHClCH₂ (IM2) do not undergo subsequent isomerization and dissociation reactions, but rather react with O₂. The theoretical results show that the major products are CH₂ClCHO and CH₃C(O)CH₃ for the reaction of MBO232?+?Cl in the presence of O₂, which is in good agreement with the experimental finding.     

Novel ordering of an S = 1/2 quasi-1d Ising-like antiferromagnet in magnetic field

High-field specific heat measurements on BaCo(2)V(2)O(8), which is a good realization of an S=1/2 quasi-one-dimensional (1D) Ising-like antifferomagnet, have been performed in magnetic fields up to 12 T along the chain and at temperature down to 200 mK. We have found a new magnetic ordered state in the field-induced phase above H(c) approximately 3.9 T. We suggest that a novel type of the incommensurate order, which is caused by the quantum effect inherent in the S=1/2 quasi-1D Ising-like antiferromagnet, appears in the field-induced phase.     

High-pressure sequence of Ba3NiSb2O9 structural phases: new S = 1 quantum spin liquids based on Ni2+

Two new gapless quantum spin-liquid candidates with S = 1 (Ni(2+)) moments: the 6H-B phase of Ba(3)NiSb(2)O(9) with a Ni(2+)-triangular lattice and the 3C phase with a Ni(2/3)Sb(1/3)-three-dimensional edge-shared tetrahedral lattice were obtained under high pressure. Both compounds show no magnetic order down to 0.35 K despite Curie-Weiss temperatures θ(CW) of -75.5 (6H-B) and -182.5 K (3C), respectively. Below ~25 K, the magnetic susceptibility of the 6H-B phase saturates to a constant value χ(0) = 0.013 emu/mol, which is followed below 7 K by a linear-temperature-dependent magnetic specific heat (C(M)) displaying a giant coefficient γ = 168 mJ/mol K(2). Both observations suggest the development of a Fermi-liquid-like ground state. For the 3C phase, the C(M) perpendicular T(2) behavior indicates a unique S = 1, 3D quantum spin-liquid ground state.     

Nuclear spin resonance of (129)Xe doped with O(2)

Spin-lattice relaxation of (129)Xe nuclei in solid natural xenon has been investigated in detail over a large range of paramagnetic O(2) impurity concentrations. Direct measurements of the ground state magnetic properties of the O(2) are difficult because the ESR (electron spin resonance) lines of O(2) are rather unstructured, but NMR measurements in the liquid helium temperature region (1.4-4 K) are very sensitive to the effective magnetic moments associated with the spin 1 Zeeman levels of the O(2) molecules and to the O(2) magnetic relaxation. From these measurements, the value of the D[Sz(2)-(1/3)S(2)] spin-Hamiltonian term of the triplet spin ground state of O(2) can be determined. The temperature and magnetic field dependence of the measured paramagnetic O(2)-induced excess line width of the (129)Xe NMR signal agree well with the theoretical model with the spin-Hamiltonian D=0.19 meV (2.3 K), and with the reasonable assumption that the E[S(x)(2)-S(y)(2)] spin-Hamiltonian term is close to 0 meV. An anomalous temperature dependence between 1.4 K and 4.2K of the (129)Xe spin-lattice relaxation rate, T(1n)(-1)(T), is also accounted for by our model. Using an independent determination of the true O(2) concentration in the Xe-O(2) solid, the effective spin lattice relaxation time (which will be seen to be transition dependent) of the O(2) at 2.3 K and 0.96 T is determined to be approximately 1.4 x 10(-8)s. The experimental results, taken together with the relaxation model, suggest routes for bringing highly spin-polarized (129)Xe from the low temperature condensed phase to higher temperatures without excessive depolarization.

H-atom abstraction dynamics of reactions between Cl atoms and heterocyclic organic molecules

The HCl(v' = 0, J') rotational state distributions produced in the photoinitiated reactions of ground spin-orbit state Cl(2P3/2) atoms with the organic heterocycles oxirane (c-C2H4O), thiirane (c-C2H4S) and oxetane (c-C3H6O) have been measured using the technique of 2 + 1 resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization in a time-of-flight mass spectrometer. In contrast to previous studies of H-atom abstraction dynamics by Cl atoms with linear functionalized molecules, the nascent HCl(v' = 0, J') products of the reactions of the three-membered heterocycles oxirane and thiirane are formed rotationally cold, with mean rotational energies <Erot> of (0.28 ± 0.02) kcal mol-1 and (0.31 ± 0.02) kcal mol-1, respectively. The reaction of Cl atoms with the four-membered heterocycle oxetane, however, results in more rotationally excited HCl(v' = 0, J') products for which <Erot> = (0.78 ± 0.03) kcal mol-1. Ab initio calculations were performed at the G2//MP2/6-311G(d,p) level to characterize molecular complexes and transition states on the reactive pathways. In all cases, the reactions were calculated to be barrierless, and weakly bound pre- and post-reaction complexes were located on the potential energy surfaces. The observed distributions and calculated reaction profiles are compared with previous studies of the reactions of Cl atoms with linear functionalized organic molecules and the consequences of the constrained molecular geometry on the HCl(v' = 0, J') rotational distribution discussed in terms of the dipole-dipole interaction model proposed previously.     

Spin liquid state in the S = 1/2 triangular lattice Ba3CuSb2O9

The synthesis and characterization of Ba3CuSb2O9, which has a layered array of Cu2+ spins in a triangular lattice, are reported. The magnetic susceptibility and neutron scattering experiments of this material show no magnetic ordering down to 0.2 K with a θ(CW) = -55 K. The magnetic specific heat reveals a T-linear dependence with a γ = 43.4 mJ K(-2) mol(-1) below 1.4 K. These observations suggest that Ba3CuSb2O9 is a new quantum spin liquid candidate with a S = 1/2 triangular lattice.
