  • Title: Ising transition in the two-dimensional quantum J1-J2 Heisenberg model.
    Author: Capriotti L, Fubini A, Roscilde T, Tognetti V.
    Journal: Phys Rev Lett; 2004 Apr 16; 92(15):157202. PubMed ID: 15169314.
    Abstract:
    We study the thermodynamics of the spin-S two-dimensional quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice with nearest (J1) and next-nearest (J2) neighbor couplings in its collinear phase (J(2)/J(1)>0.5), using the pure-quantum self-consistent harmonic approximation. Our results show the persistence of a finite-temperature Ising phase transition for every value of the spin, provided that the ratio J(2)/J(1) is greater than a critical value corresponding to the onset of collinear long-range order at zero temperature. We also calculate the spin and temperature dependence of the collinear susceptibility and correlation length, and we discuss our results in light of the experiments on Li2VOSiO4 and related compounds.
