Spin correlation on the main chain of a quasi-one-dimensional polymer ferromagnet: a density matrix renormalization group study

摘要

The spin correlation (SC) function on the main chain of a theoretical model for organic ferromagnets is studied by using a density matrix renormalization group method with both periodic boundary conditions and open boundary conditions (OBCs). It is found that the chain-radical interaction, the on-site electronelectron repulsion, and the electron-phonon coupling affect the SC greatly and play important roles in the stability of the ferromagnetic state. There exist some types of 'weak' OBC, diminishing the alternation of the SC. [References: 15]
