摘要
The S = 1/2 quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice in a uniform arbitrary magnetic field is studied by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The applied field induces an effective easy-plane anisotropy and consequently a Berezhinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) transition: the expected BKT behaviour is observed to persist both in the limit of vanishing field and near the saturation field. Experimental implications are discussed. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
