Effects of frustration and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction on the spin-1/2 anisotropic Heisenberg antiferromagnet with the application to La2CuO4

Abstract: We study the magnetic properties of the two-dimensional anisotropic antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and in-plane frustration included. The method of spin Green functions within the framework of Tyablikov's random-phase-approximation decoupling scheme is used in order to derive expressions for the spin-wave spectrum, sublattice magnetization and transition temperature. Based on these expressions we perform a detailed analysis of the influence of varying values of model parameters on its magnetic properties. The model is also applied to the high-Tc superconducting parent compound La2Cuo4 and our results compared to available experimental data.
