Nonlinear spectroscopy of bound states in perturbed Ising spin chains

Abstract

We study the nonlinear response of non-integrable 1D spin models using infinite matrix-product state techniques. As a benchmark and demonstration of the method, we first calculate the 2D coherent spectroscopy for the exactly soluble ferromagnetic transverse field Ising model, where excitations are freely moving domain-walls. We then investigate the distinct signatures of confined bound states by introducing a longitudinal field and observe the emergence of strong non-rephasing like signals. To interpret the observed phenomena, we use a two-kink approximation to perturbatively compute the 2D spectra. We find good agreement in comparison with the exact results of the infinite matrix-product state method in the strongly confined regime. We discuss the relevance of our results for quasi$-$1D Ising spin chain materials such as ${\mathrm{CoNb}}_2{\mathrm{O}}_6$.
