SPIN-DENSITY-WAVE TRANSITION IN A 2-DIMENSIONAL SPIN LIQUID

Strongly correlated two-dimensional electrons are believed to form a s pin liquid in some regimes of density and temperature. As the density is varied, one expects a transition from this spin-liquid state to a s pin-density-wave antiferromagnetic state. In this paper we show that i t is self-consistent to assume that this transition is second order an d, on this assumption, determine the critical behavior of the 2p(F) su sceptibility, the NMR rates T-1 and T-2 and the uniform susceptibility . We compare our results to data on high-T-c materials.
