In this thesis we investigate in the semiclassical approximation how unconventional magnetic ordering, that is magnetic ordering which is not predicted at the classical level, emerges in a variety of frustrated models of quantum magnetism. The first part o ...

In recent years quantum antiferromagnets with an intrinsically disordered (“spin liquid”) ground state and an energy gap in the spin excitation spectrum have received a great deal of attention. In search for new experimental realizations of spin-ladder and ...

We report the observation of weak magnetism in superlattices of LaAlO3/SrTiO3 using beta-detected nuclear magnetic resonance. The spin lattice relaxation rate of Li-8 in superlattices with a spacer layers of 8 and 6 unit cells of LaAlO3 exhibits a strong p ...

The high intrinsic spin and long spin relaxation time of manganese-12-acetate (Mn-12) makes it an archetypical single molecular magnet. While these characteristics have been measured on bulk samples, questions remain whether the magnetic properties replica ...

In the field of quantum magnetism, neutron scattering techniques allows probing of the magnetic properties of many materials, as the neutrons carry spin. Interesting materials are for example the parent compound of a high temperature superconductor La2CuO4 ...

Order and Dynamics of Model Quantum Antiferromagnets

Martin Mourigal

The spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnets in one and two dimensions are important models in quantum magnetism in which many-body effects play a crucial role. Their collective excitations are associated with quasiparticles the interaction of which are diffic ...

This report is the summary of what has been done for my TP4 project in second semester at "laboratory of quantum magnetism (LQM)" under the supervision Prof.H.Ronnow. This project is the continuation of first semester regarding to measurement of specific h ...

Weak magnetism in insulating and superconducting cuprates

Helmuth Berger

X-ray magnetic circular dichroism provides evidence of an out-of-plane spin moment in undoped and doped cuprates. In La2CuO4 this moment is related to the canting of the antiferromagnetically ordered Cu2+ spins caused by the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interacti ...

Antiferromagnetic insulators at low temperatures offer a clean arena to study non-semiclassical phenomena because the character of interactions is usually known. Macroscopic properties of the system can then be calculated by more or less sophisticated appr ...

De skabninger, der bebor de dybe verdenshave, er væsensforskellige fra dem fiskehandleren sælger. De ekstreme betingelser, der hersker i 10 kilometers dybde kræver andre overlevelsesstrategier, end dem de lettere tilgængelige overfladefisk anvender. Inden ...
