Random-Singlet Phase in Disordered Two-Dimensional Quantum Magnets
We study the effects of disorder (quenched randomness) in a two-dimensional square-lattice S=1/2 quantum-spin system, the J-Q model with a multispin interaction Q supplementing the Heisenberg exchange J. In the absence of disorder, the system hosts antiferromagnetic (AFM) and columnar valence-bond-s...
