In the frustrated Heisenberg model with first (J1) and second (J2) nearest neighbours interactions on a square lattice the transition from the long range order state (LROS) to spin liquid state (SLS) is found at α = J1/J2 ≅ 0.25. SLS is characterized by the gap in spin excitation spectrum at T = 0 and, hence, by exponential decay of spin correlation function at large distance. As a result, correlation length is temperature independent in SLS in accordance with neutron experiments on doped La 2 CuO 4.
