Bond operator theory of doped antiferromagnets: from Mott insulators with bond-centered charge order, to superconductors with nodal fermions
arXiv:cond-mat/0104519 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.64.184510
Abstract
The ground states and excitations of two-dimensional insulating and doped Mott insulators are described by a bond operator formalism. While the method represents the degrees of freedom of an arbitrary antiferromagnet exactly, it is especially suited to systems in which there is a natural pairing of sites into bonds, as in states with spontaneous or explicit spin-Peierls order (or bond-centered charge order). In the undoped insulator, as discussed previously, we obtain both paramagnetic and magnetically-ordered states. We describe the evolution of superconducting order in the ground state with increasing doping--at low doping, the superconductivity is weak, can co-exist with magnetic order, and there are no gapless spin 1/2 fermionic excitations; at high doping, the magnetic order is absent and we obtain a BCS d-wave superconductor with gapless spin 1/2, nodal fermions. We present the critical theory describing the onset of these nodal fermionic excitations. We discuss the evolution of the spin spectrum, and obtain regimes where a spin 1 exciton contributes a sharp resonance in the dynamic spin susceptiblity. We also discuss the experimental consequences of low-energy, dynamically fluctuating, spin-Peierls order in an isotropic CuO_2 plane--we compute consequences for the damping and dispersion of an optical phonon involving primarily the O ions, and compare the results with recent neutron scattering measurements of phonon spectra.
