Quantum critical dynamics in the one-dimensional
spin chain systems Cu(C4H4N2)(NO3)2 and (phzH)2CuCl4H2O

I will present a comprehensive NMR study of the magnetic field-driven
quantum phase transitions in the S=1/2 spin chain systems Cu(C4H4N2)(NO3)2
and (phzH)2CuCl4H2O.
The first compound, Cu(C4H4N2)(NO3)2, is known to be one of the best
realizations of the antiferromagnetic S=1/2 Heisenberg chain model with a
low coupling constant J [1]. The zero temperature saturation field Bc =
14.6 T corresponds to a quantum critical point (QCP), where the system is
driven from a Luttinger liquid state to ferromagnetic polarization. With
an emphasis on the vicinity of the QCP, a comparison of our experimental
findings from 13C-NMR with both numerical (quantum Monte Carlo) and
analytical (conformal field theory) approaches is made and yields a very
good agreement. In particular, a well-defined maximum of 1/T1 (B,T) below
Bc is revealed as the signature of essential spin-spin interactions in the
Luttinger liquid phase [2,3].
The second compound, (phzH)2CuCl4H2O, is a recently synthesized spin chain
system [4]. 1H- and 35Cl-NMR experiments consistently yield a field- and
temperature dependent behavior of 1/T1 similar to that of the first
compound. But, in contrast, a pronounced second maximum is observed at
about ž of the saturation field Bc = 12.2 T. This effect is not found in
the local or macroscopic magnetization, suggesting a more complicated
magnetic interaction scheme.
