Effects of Long-Range Interactions on Magnetic Excitations and Phase Transition on a Magnetically Frustrated Square Lattice

Abstract

We investigate the effects of long-range interaction on the magnetic excitations and the competition between magnetic phases on a frustrated square lattice. Applying the spin wave theory and assisted with symmetry analysis, we obtain analytical expression for spin wave spectrum of competing Neel and (pi, 0) stripe states of systems containing any-order long-range interactions. In the specific case of long-range interactions with power-law decay, we found surprisingly that staggered long-range interaction suppresses quantum fluctuation and enlarges the ordered moment, especially in the Neel state, and thus extends its phase boundary to the stripe state. Our findings only illustrate the rich possibilities of the roles of long-range interactions, and advocate future investigations in other magnetic systems with different structures of interactions.
