Lett. 93, 176404 (2004) | Subject: | Strongly Correlated Electrons | cond-mat.str-el | Abstract: | We argue that the large Jahn-Teller (JT) distortions in YVO$_3$ and LaVO$_3$ should suppress the quantum orbital fluctuation. The unusual magnetic properties can be well explained based on LDA+$U$ calculations using experimental structures, in terms of the JT orbital. The observed splitting of the spin-wave dispersions for YVO$_3$ in C-type antiferromagnetic state is attributed to the inequivalent VO$_2$ layers in the crystal structure, instead of the ``orbital Peierls state’’. Alternative stacking of $ab$-plane exchange couplings produces the c-axis spin-wave splitting, thus the spin system is highly three dimensional rather than quasi-one-dimensional. Similar splitting is also predicted for LaVO$_3$, although it is weak. | Source: | arXiv, cond-mat/0409299 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
