Resonating valence bond states in doped square-lattice antiferromagnets: finite cluster calculations

We discuss some general features of the resonating valence bond (RVB) ansatz for the ground state of quantums=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets (AFMs). For finite clusters of up to 16 spins on the square lattice we compare the exact ground state with a short-range correlated RVB trial wave function. Since in the pure square-lattice AFM the short-range correlated RVB state differs significantly from the real ground state we discuss different mechanisms that favour the RVB state. In particular, we study the influence of anisotropy, disorder and frustration, which could be relevant for slightly doped high-T _c superconducting materials. Furthermore, we discuss the influence of holes on the realization of a RVB state. We found that exchange disorder and, in particular, frustration and holes can favour a short-range correlated magnetic state, which is well described by a RVB state.     

Ab-initio nonrelativistic and relativistic Hartree-Fock calculations for both closed- and open-shell molecules using GTO basis

Computer programs forab-initio Hartree-Fock and Dirac-Hartree-Fock calculations on closed- and open-shell atoms and molecules have been indigenously developed. Sample results of high quality are given for Li, Be, LiH and Be₂. As a byproduct of these calculations the importance of considering relativistic effects in the investigation of the elusive bound-state structure of Be₂ is clearly indicated.     

Optoelectronic pressure dependent study of MgZrO3 oxide and ground state thermoelectric response using Ab-initio calculations

The electronic, optical and thermoelectric properties of zirconia-based MgZrO₃ oxide have been studied theoretically at a variant pressure up to 25 GPa. Calculations for the formation energy and tolerance factor reveal the thermodynamic and structural stability of MgZrO₃. To tune the indirect band gap from to a direct band gap, the optimized structure of MgZrO₃ has been subjected to external pressure up to 25 GPa. The optical properties have been discussed in the form of dielectric constant and refraction that brief us about the dispersion, polarization, absorption, and transparency of the MgZrO₃. In the end, the thermoelectric parameters have been analyzed at variant pressure against the chemical potential and temperature. The narrow band gap and high absorption in the ultraviolet region increase the demand of the studied oxide for energy harvesting device applications.     

Fate of the resonating valence bond in graphene

We apply a variational wave function capable of describing qualitatively and quantitatively the so-called "resonating valence bond" (RVB) in realistic materials, by improving standard ab initio calculations by means of quantum Monte Carlo methods. In this framework we clearly identify the Kekulé and Dewar contributions to the chemical bond of the benzene molecule and establish the corresponding RVB energy of these structures (?0.01 eV/atom). We apply this method to unveil the nature of the chemical bond in undoped graphene, providing an estimate of the RVB energy gain, and show that this picture remains only within a small "resonance length" of a few atomic units.     

Phase transition to the resonating valence bond state

A Ginzburg-Landau expansion for the free energy functional of the resonating valence bond state is performed for the mean field approximation (MFA) and for a functional integral approach (FIA) which includes correlations. Phase diagrams obtained in both approximations are presented. The FIA differs form the MFA in three main aspects: (i) Above the mean field transition temperature an instability exists towards the formation of degenerate singlet pair states, indicating the onset of the RVB state. (ii) The extendeds-wave phase is favoured over the extendedd-wave phase. (iii) Phase fluctuations are included, destroying off-diagonal order in the absence of holes.     

Mesoscopic resonating valence bond system on a triple dot

We theoretically introduce a mesoscopic pendulum from a triple dot. The pendulum is fastened through a singly occupied dot (spin qubit). Two other strongly capacitively coupled islands form a double-dot charge qubit with one electron in excess oscillating between the two low-energy charge states (1,0) and (0,1). The triple dot is placed between two superconducting leads. Under realistic conditions, the main proximity effect stems from the injection of resonating singlet (valence) bonds on the triple dot. This gives rise to a Josephson current that is charge- and spin-dependent and, as a consequence, exhibits a distinct resonance as a function of the superconducting phase difference.     

Chemical potential calculations in dense liquids using metadynamics

The calculation of chemical potential has traditionally been a challenge in atomistic simulations. One of the most used approaches is Widom's insertion method in which the chemical potential is calculated by periodically attempting to insert an extra particle in the system. In dense systems this method fails since the insertion probability is very low. In this paper we show that in a homogeneous fluid the insertion probability can be increased using metadynamics. We test our method on a supercooled high density binary Lennard-Jones fluid. We find that we can obtain efficiently converged results even when Widom's method fails.     

Resonating valence bond mechanism of the H2 dissociation on Pd surface

Resonating valence bond theory combined with DFT calculations permit to build a simple model for the dissociation of H₂ on palladium surface. Based on analysis of the electron transfer and total energy for different geometries of the Pd₂–H₂ and Pd₅–H₂ systems it is found that the predissociative state corresponds to a tilted molecule adsorbed on the surface.     

Ab-initio calculations of the electronic structure of impurities and alloys of ferromagnetic transition metals

We review recent theoretical work on the electronic structure and the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic transition-metal alloys. All calculations are based on density-functional theory in the local-spin-density approximation. We report about calculations for dilute alloys using the KKR-Green's function method and for concentrated disordered alloys using the charge-self-consistent KKR-CPA method.     

On the valence bond solid in the presence of Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

We examine the stability of the valence bond solid (VBS) phase against the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction in the bipartite lattice. We consider the VBS states in the AKLT model as well as the one in the Sandvik model in the 4×L lattice. We found that the VBS is very stable against the DM interaction qin the AKLT model. There is no quantum phase transition in the AKLT+DM case. However, the VBS spin gap closes in the Sandvik model due to the DM interaction.     

The study of the valence bond property in a two—different—quantum—dot molecule

The electronic energy spectrum and wavefunction of a quantum-dot molecule are studied by means of the finite-element solution of the single electron Schr?dinger equation. We find that the nature of the coupling can be covalent, ionic, or "intermediate" new mixed states, depending on various parameters such as the separation distance between two dots, the height of potential barrier, matching of the energies and parities of the orbital localized on each dot. The bond property can be used to explain the experimental result obtained by Oosterkamp et al. (1998 Nature 395 873).     

Resonating valence bond wave function for the two-dimensional fractional spin liquid

The unconventional low-lying spin excitations, recently observed in neutron scattering experiments on Cs2CuCl4, are explained with a spin liquid wave function. The dispersion relation as well as the wave vector of the incommensurate spin correlations are well reproduced within a projected BCS wave function with gapless and fractionalized spin-1/2 excitations around the nodes of the BCS gap function. The proposed wave function is shown to be very accurate for one-dimensional spin-1/2 systems and remains similarly accurate in the two-dimensional model corresponding to Cs2CuCl4, thus representing a good ansatz for describing spin fractionalization in two dimensions.     

Resonating valence bond phase in the triangular lattice quantum dimer model

We study the quantum dimer model on the triangular lattice, which is expected to describe the singlet dynamics of frustrated Heisenberg models in phases where valence bond configurations dominate their physics. We find, in contrast to the square lattice, that there is a truly short ranged resonating valence bond phase with no gapless excitations and with deconfined, gapped, spinons for a finite range of parameters. We also establish the presence of crystalline dimer phases.
