Impurities in S=1/2 Heisenberg Antiferromagnetic Chains: Consequences for Neutron Scattering and Knight Shift
Sebastian Eggert, Ian Affleck
Abstract
Non-magnetic impurities in an S=1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain are studied using boundary conformal field theory techniques and finite-temperature quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We calculate the static structure function, Simp(k), measured in neutron scattering and the local susceptibility, chii measured in Knight shift experiments. Simp(k) becomes quite large near the antiferromagnetic wave-vector, and exhibits much stronger temperature dependence than the bulk structure function. χi has a large component which alternates and increases as a function of distance from the impurity.
