NMR Relaxation Rate for 1D Multicomponent Spin-Orbital Systems

The NMR relaxation rate $1/T_{1}$ is studied for one-dimensional multicomponent spin-orbital systems. By combining the bosonization techniques and the exact solution of the SU($n$) model, we evaluate the power-law exponent and the enhancement factor for $1/T_1$ at low temperatures. We discuss how the band splitting affects the relaxation rate, and find that $1/T_{1}$ may be enhanced around the critical value of the band splitting. The crossover behavior in $1/T_1$ around the critical point is discussed in terms of the low-frequency dynamical spin susceptibility. The effect of the hole-doping is also addressed.
