We directly measure the low energy excitation modes of the quantum Ising magnet LiHoF$_4$ using microwave spectroscopy. Instead of a single electronic mode, we find a set of collective electronuclear modes, in which the spin-$1/2$ Ising…
The phenomenology of quantum phase transitions concerns physics at low temperatures and energies, and corresponding solid-state experiments often reach millikelvin temperatures. However, this is a scale where in many solids the influence of…
We examine the low-energy excitations in the vicinity of the quantum critical point in LiHoF$_4$, a physical realization of the Transverse Field Ising Model, focusing on the long-range fluctuations which soften to zero energy at the…
We derive an effective time independent Hamiltonian for the transverse Ising model coupled to a spin bath, in the presence of a high frequency AC magnetic field. We show that the spin blocking mechanism that removes the quantum phase…
We study the effect of coupling a spin bath environment to a system which, at low energies, can be modeled as a quantum Ising system. A field theoretic formalism incorporating both thermal and quantum fluctuations is developed to derive…
We first present a formalism that incorporates the input-output formalism and the linear response theory to employ cavity-magnon-polariton coupling as a spectroscopic tool for investigating strongly hybridized electro-nuclear spin…
The ability to design quantum systems that decouple from environmental noise sources is highly desirable for development of quantum technologies with optimal coherence. The chemical tunability of electronic states in magnetic molecules…
We consider multiple non-interacting quantum mechanical two-level systems coupled to a common bosonic bath and study its quantum phase transition with Monte Carlo simulations using a continuous imaginary time cluster algorithm. The common…
We investigate in detail, using both analytical and numerical tools, the decoherence of electron spins in quantum dots (QDs) coupled to a bath of nuclear spins in magnetic fields or with various initial bath polarizations, focusing on the…
Quite a few low-dimensional magnets are quantum-disordered ``spin liquids'' with a characteristic gap in the magnetic excitation spectrum. Among these are antiferromagnetic chains of integer quantum spins. Their generic feature are…
We present direct local-probe evidence for strongly hybridized nuclear-electronic spin states of an Ising ferromagnet LiHoF$_4$ in a transverse magnetic field. The nuclear-electronic states are addressed via a magnetic resonance in the GHz…
Quantum magnets represent an ideal playground for the controlled realization of novel quantum phases and of quantum phase transitions. The Hamiltonian of the system can be indeed manipulated by applying a magnetic field or pressure on the…
We investigate the quantum phase transition (QPT) in the XXZ central spin model, which can be described as a spin-1/2 particle coupled to N bath spins. In general, the QPT is supposed to occur only in the thermodynamical limit. In contrast,…
The main source of decoherence for an electron spin confined to a quantum dot is the hyperfine interaction with nuclear spins. To analyze this process theoretically we diagonalize the central spin Hamiltonian in the high magnetic B-field…
By using worldline and diagrammatic quantum Monte Carlo techniques, matrix product state and a variational approach \`a la Feynman, we investigate the equilibrium properties and relaxation features of a quantum system of $N$ spins…
We numerically study the hyperfine induced nuclear spin dynamics in a system of two coupled quantum dots in zero magnetic field. Each of the electron spins is considered to interact with an individual bath of nuclear spins via homogeneous…
Inelastic neutron-scattering experiments on the high-temperature superconductor La$_{1.855}$Sr$_{0.145}$CuO$_{4}$ reveal a magnetic excitation gap $\Delta$ that decreases continuously upon application of a magnetic field perpendicular to…
We investigate theoretically the spin echo signal of an electron localized in a quantum dot and interacting with a bath of nuclear spins. We consider the regime of very low magnetic fields (corresponding to fields as low as a militesla in…
Quantum phase transitions between the magnetically ordered and disordered states are studied for the two-dimensional antiferromagnetic quantum spin systems with ladder, plaquette, and mixed-spin structures. Starting with properly chosen…
Experimental realization of magnetic field induced quantum phase transition (QPT) is reported for NH4CuPO4.H2O, a two spin cluster material with isotropic Heisenberg interaction. Experimental magnetization and specific heat data have been…
