Spin-1/2 antiferromagnets in 2 dimensions

arXiv:cond-mat/0212351

Abstract

The properties of the groundstate and first excitations of 2dimensionnal quantum antiferromagnets are rapidly sketched. A special emphasis is put on the gapped phases: Valence Bond Crystals and the two types of Spin Liquids. New results on the spin susceptibility of small samples of the Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a kagomé lattice are displayed for comparison with Kagemaya {\it et al.} experimental result (this conference).
