Simulating spin dynamics of supersolid states in a quantum Ising magnet

Motivated by a recent experimental study on the quantum Ising magnet ${\text{K}}_{2}\text{Co}{({\text{SeO}}_{3})}_{2}$ that presented spectroscopic evidence of zero-field supersolidity (Chen et al., arXiv:2402.15869), we simulate the excitation spectrum of the corresponding microscopic $XXZ$ model for the compound using the recently developed excitation ansatz for infinite projected entangled-pair states. We map out the ground state phase diagram and compute the dynamical spin structure factors across a range of magnetic field strengths, focusing especially on the two supersolid phases found near zero and saturation fields. Our simulated excitation spectra for the zero-field supersolid ``Y'' phase are in excellent agreement with the experimental data, recovering the low-energy branches and integer quantized excited energy levels ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{n}=n{J}_{zz}$. Furthermore, we demonstrate the nonlocal multi-spin-flip features for modes at ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{2}$, indicative of their multimagnon nature. Additionally, we identify characteristics of the high-field supersolid ``$\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}$'' phase in the simulated spectra, which should be compared with future experimental results.

Abstract

Motivated by a recent experimental study on the quantum Ising magnet ${\text{K}}_{2}\text{Co}{({\text{SeO}}_{3})}_{2}$ that presented spectroscopic evidence of zero-field supersolidity (Chen et al., arXiv:2402.15869), we simulate the excitation spectrum of the corresponding microscopic $XXZ$ model for the compound using the recently developed excitation ansatz for infinite projected entangled-pair states. We map out the ground state phase diagram and compute the dynamical spin structure factors across a range of magnetic field strengths, focusing especially on the two supersolid phases found near zero and saturation fields. Our simulated excitation spectra for the zero-field supersolid ``Y'' phase are in excellent agreement with the experimental data, recovering the low-energy branches and integer quantized excited energy levels ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{n}=n{J}_{zz}$. Furthermore, we demonstrate the nonlocal multi-spin-flip features for modes at ${\ensuremath{\omega}}_{2}$, indicative of their multimagnon nature. Additionally, we identify characteristics of the high-field supersolid ``$\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Psi}}$'' phase in the simulated spectra, which should be compared with future experimental results.
