“…Resulting changes in the susceptibility have been investigated in both spin-1/2 16 and spin-1 17 Heisenberg chains as well as two-leg Heisenberg ladders 18 . In the latter two cases the chain break can lead to the formation of edge states, which have been observed in inelastic neutron scattering experiments 19 . Impurity and boundary effects are also relevant to scanning tunneling microscopy experiments 20 , where the associated breaking of translational symmetry can lead to fingerprints in the dynamic response that assist in characterising of the underlying bulk behaviour 21 .…”

“…Since all form factors of σ z involving an odd number of particles vanish, this zero-momentum mode does not contribute to the two-point function (19) of σ z , and hence will be ignored in our analysis. Finally, we note that K(ξ) = −K(−ξ) and K(ξ) → 0 (ξ → 0) except for free boundary conditions.…”

“…While counterintuitive, in some situations disorder may enhance long-range order, as discussed for inhomogeneous superconductors [8][9][10]. Perhaps even more surprisingly, doping gapped antiferromagnets with a finite concentration of magnetic or non-magnetic impurities can fill up the bare spin gap with localized levels [11][12][13] which may eventually order, in the strict sense of macroscopic long-range order (LRO) at low temperature. Such an impurity-induced ordering mechanism of the type "order from disorder" [14,15] has been experimentally observed for a large number of spin-gapped compounds [16]: weakly coupled d = 1 systems such as spin-Peierls chains CuGeO 3 [17,18], spin ladders SrCu 2 O 3 [19] and BiCu 2 PO 6 [16], Haldane chains PbNi 2 V 2 O 8 [20], as well as weakly coupled dimers in TlCuCl 3 [21].…”

“…Recently, impurity-induced edge states have been studied intensively by microscopic measurements such as neutron scattering and NMR [17][18][19][20], because these states reflect the underlying features of the quantum spin systems. The interaction between edge spins and the N dependence of the energy states predicted by the Hamiltonian (1) are directly related to the spin liquid nature of the Haldane system.…”
