We report the exact dimer phase, in which the ground states are described by product of singlet dimer, in the extended XYZ model by generalizing the isotropic Majumdar-Ghosh model to the fully anisotropic region. We demonstrate that this phase can be realized even in models when antiferromagnetic interaction along one of the three directions. This model also supports three different ferromagnetic (FM) phases, denoted as $x$-FM, $y$-FM and $z$-FM, polarized along the three directions. The boundaries between the exact dimer phase and FM phases are infinite-fold degenerate. The breaking of this infinite-fold degeneracy by either translational symmetry breaking or $mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry breaking leads to exact dimer phase and FM phases, respectively. Moreover, the boundaries between the three FM phases are critical with central charge $c=1$ for free fermions. We characterize the properties of these boundaries using entanglement entropy, excitation gap, and long-range spin-spin correlation functions. These results are relevant to a large number of one dimensional magnets, in which anisotropy is necessary to isolate a single chain out from the bulk material. We discuss the possible experimental signatures in realistic materials with magnetic field along different directions and show that the anisotropy may resolve the disagreement between theory and experiments based on isotropic spin-spin interactions.

We determine exactly the phase structure of a chiral magnet in one spatial dimension with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction and a potential that is a function of the third component of the magnetization vector, $n_3$, with a Zeeman (linear w ith the coefficient $B$) term and an anisotropy (quadratic with the coefficient $A$) term. For large values of potential parameters $A$ and $B$, the system is in one of the ferromagnetic phases, whereas it is in the spiral phase for small values. In the spiral phase we find a continuum of spiral solutions, which are one-dimensionally modulated solutions with various periods. The ground state is determined as the spiral solution with the lowest average energy density. As the phase boundary approaches, the period of the lowest energy spiral solution diverges, and the spiral solutions become domain wall solutions with zero energy at the boundary. The energy of then domain wall solutions is positive in the homogeneous phase region, but is negative in the spiral phase region, signaling the instability of the homogeneous (ferromagnetic) state. The order of the phase transition between spiral and homogeneous phases and between polarized ($n_3=pm 1$) and canted ($n_3 ot=pm 1$) ferromagnetic phases is found to be second order.
We consider quantum Heisenberg ferro- and antiferromagnets on the square lattice with exchange anisotropy of easy-plane or easy-axis type. The thermodynamics and the critical behaviour of the models are studied by the pure-quantum self-consistent har monic approximation, in order to evaluate the spin and anisotropy dependence of the critical temperatures. Results for thermodynamic quantities are reported and comparison with experimental and numerical simulation data is made. The obtained results allow us to draw a general picture of the subject and, in particular, to estimate the value of the critical temperature for any model belonging to the considered class.
Long range antiferromagnetic (AFM) ordering of Ni spins in Ni2NbBO6 has been studied with single crystal from spin susceptibility measurement and comparedwith the ab initio calculation results consistently. Below TN = 23.5 K, the S = 1 spins align al ong the a direction for edge-shared NiO6 octahedra which form crystallographic armchair chains along the b direction. The isothermal magnetization M(H) below TN shows spin-flop transition for magnetic field above 36 kOe along the a axis,which indicates the spin anisotropy is along the a direction. The electronic and magnetic structures of Ni2NbBO6 have also been explored theoretically using density functional theory with generalized gradient approximation plus on-site Coulomb interaction (U). These calculations support the experimentally observed antiferromagnetism of Ni2NbBO6. In particular, the long range AFM ordering below TN can be dissected into armchair chains which consists of S = 1 dimers of J2 = 2.43 meV with ferromagnetic (FM) intrachain and interchain couplings of size half |J2|.
In this paper, we investigated the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) in one-dimensional magnets with different types of ordering in the Ising model, Heisenberg, XY-model, the standard, planar, and modified Potts models. Exact analytical solutions to MCE as functions of exchange parameters, temperature, values and directions of an external magnetic field are obtained. The temperature and magnetic field dependences of MCE in the presence of frustrations in the system in a magnetic field are numerically computed in detail.
Heat capacity and magnetic torque measurements are used to probe the anisotropic temperature-field phase diagram of the frustrated spin dimer compound Ba3Mn2O8 in the field range from 0T to 18T. For fields oriented along the c axis a single magnetica lly ordered phase is found in this field range, whereas for fields oriented along the a axis two distinct phases are observed. The present measurements reveal a surprising non-monotonic evolution of the phase diagram as the magnetic field is rotated in the [001]-[100] plane. The angle dependence of the critical field (Hc1) that marks the closing of the spin gap can be quantitatively accounted for using a minimal spin Hamiltonian comprising superexchange between nearest and next nearest Mn ions, the Zeeman energy and single ion anisotropy. This Hamiltonian also predicts a non-monotonic evolution of the transition between the two ordered states as the field is rotated in the a-c plane. However, the observed effect is found to be significantly larger in magnitude, implying that either this minimal spin Hamiltonian is incomplete or that the magnetically ordered states have a slightly different structure than previously proposed.
