Emergence of magnetic long-range order in kagome quantum antiferromagnets

Abstract

The existence of a spin-liquid ground state of the $s=1/2$ Heisenberg kagome antiferromagnet (KAFM) is well established. Meanwhile, also for the $s=1$ Heisenberg KAFM evidence for the absence of magnetic long-range order (LRO) was found. Magnetic LRO in Heisenberg KAFMs can emerge by increasing the spin quantum number $s$ to $s>1$ and for $s=1$ by an easy-plane anisotropy. In the present paper we discuss the route to magnetic order in $s=1/2$ KAFMs by including an isotropic interlayer coupling (ILC) $J_{\perp }$ as well as an easy-plane anisotropy in the kagome layers by using the coupled-cluster method to high orders of approximation. We consider ferro- as well as antiferromagnetic $J_{\perp }$. To discuss the general question for the crossover from a purely two-dimensional (2D) to a quasi-2D and finally to a three-dimensional system we consider the simplest model of stacked (unshifted) kagome layers. Although the ILC of real kagome compounds is often more sophisticated, such a geometry of the ILC can be relevant for barlowite. We find that the spin-liquid ground state present for the strictly 2D $s=1/2$ $XXZ$ KAFM survives a finite ILC, where the spin-liquid region shrinks monotonously with increasing anisotropy. If the ILC becomes large enough (about 15\% of intralayer coupling for the isotropic Heisenberg case and about 4\% for the $XY$ limit) magnetic LRO can be established, where the $q=0$ symmetry is favorable if $J_{\perp }$ is of moderate strength. If the strength of the ILC further increases, $\sqrt{3}\times \sqrt{3}$ LRO can become favorable against $q=0$ LRO.
