Chain breaks and the susceptibility of Sr_2Cu_{1-x}Pd_xO_{3+δ} and other doped quasi one-dimensional antiferromagnets

Abstract

We study the magnetic susceptibility of one-dimensional S=1/2 antiferromagnets containing non-magnetic impurities which cut the chain into finite segments. For the susceptibility of long anisotropic Heisenberg chain-segments with open boundaries we derive a parameter-free result at low temperatures using field theory methods and the Bethe Ansatz. The analytical result is verified by comparing with Quantum-Monte-Carlo calculations. We then show that the partitioning of the chain into finite segments can explain the Curie-like contribution observed in recent experiments on Sr_2Cu_{1-x}Pd_xO_{3+δ}. Possible additional paramagnetic impurities seem to play only a minor role.
