Numerical Study of the Spin-Flop Transition in Anisotropic Spin-1/2 Antiferromagnets
Abstract
Magnetization processes of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic XXZ model in two and three spatial dimensions are studied using quantum Monte Carlo method based on stochastic series expansions. Recently developed operator-loop algorithm enables us to show a clear evidence of the first-order phase transition in the presence of an external magnetic field. Phase diagrams of closely related systems, hard core bosons with nearest-neighbor repulsions, are also discussed focusing on possibilities of phase-separated and supersolid phases.
