The effects of quantum fluctuations due to frustration between nearest neighbors and next-nearest neighbors of the quantum spin-half Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice are investigated by using the modified spin-wave theory (MSW). We have extended Takahashi's MSW theory, and studied the ground-state and finite-temperature properties of this model. The results calculated within this formalism on the thermodynamics agree quite well with the quantum Monte Carlo estimates, and exact diagonalization results. We have also compared the present method with the conventional spin wave theory.

We study the spin-1/2 square lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnets with finite size by the nonlinear spin-wave theory. At low temperatures, the effects of the lattice size (L×L) on the spin-wave velocity and the staggered magnetization are obtained, respectively. We find that the staggered magnetization is very sensitive to the lattice size, while the finite size effect on the spin-wave velocity is weak. Moreover, the temperature dependence of the correlation length is also discussed. The results we have obtained are in agreement with the results of experiments and numerical simulations.
