Kaleidoscope of Exotic Quantum Phases in a FrustratedXYModel

Abstract: The existence of quantum spin liquids was first conjectured by Pomeranchuk some 70 years ago, who argued that frustration in simple antiferromagnetic theories could result in a Fermi-liquid-like state for spinon excitations. Here we show that a simple quantum spin model on a honeycomb lattice hosts the long sought for Bose metal with a clearly identifiable Bose surface. The complete phase diagram of the model is determined via exact diagonalization and is shown to include four distinct phases separated by thre… Show more

“…In quantum magnets, many theoretical microscopic models have been proposed for realizing the Bose metal, including different kinds of spin ladders (Motrunich and Fisher, 2007;Sheng et al, 2008;Sheng, Motrunich, and Fisher, 2009;Mishmash et al, 2011), 2D kagome lattices (Balents, Fisher, and Girvin, 2002;Dang, Inglis, and Melko, 2011), square lattices (Schaffer, Burkov, and Melko, 2009;Tay and Motrunich, 2011), and a 2D honeycomb lattice- (Block et al, 2011;Varney et al, 2011). Here the Bose metal is of course not metallic in the sense of conducting electricity, but in the sense of conducting heat at T ¼ 0.…”
