Lecture
WiSe 14/15: Theory of Quantum Magnetism
Johannes Reuther
Comments
This lecture covers various fundamental aspects of quantum magnetism in order to understand magnetic materials on a microscopic level. We first give a brief introduction into different types of magnetic materials such as diamagnets, paramagnets, and (anti)ferromagnets, with a specific focus on strongly correlated materials. We will then discuss in some detail how strong spin interactions arise and develop microscopic models for these materials. Thereby, we will consider spin systems such as Heisenberg and Ising models and discuss theoretical approaches to describe their phase diagrams and spin excitations close
