SW18 - Distorted kagome

This is a Sunny port of SpinW Tutorial 18, originally authored by Goran Nilsen and Sandor Toth. This tutorial illustrates spin wave calculations for KCu₃As₂O₇(OD)₃. The Cu ions are arranged in a distorted kagome lattice and exhibit an incommensurate helical magnetic order, as described in G. J. Nilsen, et al., Phys. Rev. B 89, 140412 (2014). The model follows Toth and Lake, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 27, 166002 (2015).

using Sunny, GLMakie

Build the distorted kagome crystal, with spacegroup 12 ("C 1 2/m 1" setting).

units = Units(:meV, :angstrom)
latvecs = lattice_vectors(10.2, 5.94, 7.81, 90, 117.7, 90)
positions = [[0, 0, 0], [1/4, 1/4, 0]]
types = ["Cu1", "Cu2"]
cryst = Crystal(latvecs, positions, "C 1 2/m 1"; types)
view_crystal(cryst)

Define the interactions.

moments = [1 => Moment(s=1/2, g=2), 3 => Moment(s=1/2, g=2)]
sys = System(cryst, moments, :dipole)
J   = -2
Jp  = -1
Jab = 0.75
Ja  = -J/.66 - Jab
Jip = 0.01
set_exchange!(sys, J, Bond(1, 3, [0, 0, 0]))
set_exchange!(sys, Jp, Bond(3, 5, [0, 0, 0]))
set_exchange!(sys, Ja, Bond(3, 4, [0, 0, 0]))
set_exchange!(sys, Jab, Bond(1, 2, [0, 0, 0]))
set_exchange!(sys, Jip, Bond(3, 4, [0, 0, 1]))

Use minimize_spiral_energy! to optimize the generalized spiral order. This determines the propagation wavevector k and fits the spin values within the unit cell. One must provide a fixed axis perpendicular to the polarization plane. For this system, all interactions are rotationally invariant and the axis vector is arbitrary. In other cases, a good axis will frequently be determined from symmetry considerations.

axis = [0, 0, 1]
randomize_spins!(sys)
k = minimize_spiral_energy!(sys, axis; k_guess=randn(3))
plot_spins(sys; ndims=2)

If successful, the optimization process will find one two propagation wavevectors, ±k_ref, with opposite chiralities. In this system, the spiral_energy_per_site is independent of chirality.

k_ref = [0.785902495, 0.0, 0.107048756]
k_ref_alt = [1, 0, 1] - k_ref
@assert isapprox(k, k_ref; atol=1e-6) || isapprox(k, k_ref_alt; atol=1e-6)
@assert spiral_energy_per_site(sys; k, axis) ≈ -0.78338383838

Check the energy with a real-space calculation using a large magnetic cell. First, we must determine a lattice size for which k becomes approximately commensurate.

suggest_magnetic_supercell([k_ref]; tol=1e-3)

Possible magnetic supercell in multiples of lattice vectors:

    [1 0 -7; 0 1 0; 2 0 14]

for the rationalized wavevectors:

    [[11/14, 0, 3/28]]

Resize the system as suggested and perform a real-space calculation. Working with a commensurate wavevector increases the energy slightly. The precise value might vary from run-to-run due to trapping in a local energy minimum.

new_shape = [14 0 1; 0 1 0; 0 0 2]
sys2 = reshape_supercell(sys, new_shape)
randomize_spins!(sys2)
minimize_energy!(sys2)
energy_per_site(sys2)

-0.7791966901275341

Return to the original system (with a single chemical cell) and construct SpinWaveTheorySpiral for calculations on the incommensurate spiral phase.

measure = ssf_perp(sys; apply_g=false)
swt = SpinWaveTheorySpiral(sys; measure, k, axis)
