STUDIES ON THE FERROMAGNETIC STATE IN QUASI-ONE-DIMENSIONAL ORGANIC POLYMER FERROMAGNETS WITH COMPETITION BETWEEN ELECTRON-ELECTRON INTERACTION AND ELECTRON-PHONON COUPLING

The possible ferromagnetic ground state of a theoretical model propose d for quasi-one-dimensional organic polymer ferromagnets is investigat ed in detail. Within the self-consistent-field Hartree-Fock approximat ion, allowing for full. lattice relaxation, the system is studied self -consistently. We find a critical interaction, which is determined by the competition between the electron-electron interaction and the elec tron-phonon coupling. When electron-electron interaction is larger tha n the critical value, the ground state of the system is a stable ferro magnetic state. It is also found that in this stable ferromagnetic sta te the pi-electrons SDW will become very strong, and almost zero dimer ization happens for the main chain.
