Atomistic simulation of Mott transition in fluid metals: Combining molecular dynamics with dynamical mean-field theory
Zhijie Fan, Gia-Wei Chern
We present a new quantum molecular dynamics (MD) method where the electronic structure and atomic forces are solved by a real-space dynamical mean-field theory (DMFT). Contrary to…
Honeycomb-lattice Gamma model in a magnetic field: hidden Néel order and spin-flop transition
Zhongzheng Tian, Zhijie Fan, Preetha Saha +1
We show that a magnetic field in the high-symmetry direction lifts the macroscopic classical ground-state degeneracy of the honeycomb model and induces a long-range magnetic or…
Anomalous and Anisotropic Nonlinear Susceptibility in the Proximate Kitaev Magnet -RuCl
Ludwig Holleis, Joseph Prestigiacomo, Zhijie Fan +5
The leading order nonlinear (NL) susceptibility, , in a paramagnet is negative and diverges as . This divergence is destroyed when spins correlate and the NL…
Plaquette order in classical spin liquid stabilized by strong off-diagonal exchange
Preetha Saha, Zhijie Fan, Depei Zhang +1
We report a new classical spin liquid in which the collective flux degrees of freedom break the translation symmetry of the honeycomb lattice. This exotic phase exists in frustrate…
