The J1-J2-J3 transverse Ising model
Area of Science:
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Statistical Mechanics
- Quantum Magnetism
Background:
- The J1-J2-J3 transverse Ising model on a square lattice is a complex system exhibiting rich phase transitions.
- Understanding these transitions is crucial for developing new quantum materials and technologies.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate the impact of third-neighbor coupling (J3) on thermal and quantum phase transitions.
- To analyze the role of frustration in the J1-J2-J3 transverse Ising model.
- To explore the conditions for quantum annealed criticality (QAC).
Main Methods:
- Utilizing a cluster mean-field decoupling approach.
- Describing phase diagrams and free-energy landscapes near phase transitions.
- Analyzing the influence of ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic J3 couplings.
Main Results:
- Ferromagnetic J3 favors continuous order-disorder transitions, suppressing tricritical points.
- Antiferromagnetic J3 enhances frustration, leading to staggered dimer phases and discontinuous transitions.
- Quantum annealed criticality (QAC) is suppressed by ferromagnetic J3 but persists with antiferromagnetic J3.
Conclusions:
- Third-neighbor coupling (J3) significantly alters the nature of phase transitions in the J1-J2-J3 transverse Ising model.
- Frustration, particularly from antiferromagnetic J3, plays a key role in the onset and persistence of quantum annealed criticality.
- The findings provide insights into controlling quantum phase transitions through magnetic couplings.
