From cooperative paramagnetism to Neel order in Y2Ru2O7: neutron scattering measurements
(American Physical Society, 2008-01-01)
Spin correlations in the pyrochlore antiferromagnet Y2Ru2O7 with Curie-Weiss temperature ΘCW* - 1100 K and critical temperature TN = 77 K were examined through neutron scattering. For TN < T < ΘCW / 3 the data show spin ...
Field dependence of magnetic ordering in Kagome-staircase compound Ni3V2O8
(American Physical Society, 2006-07-01)
We present powder and single-crystal neutron diffraction and bulk measurements of the Kagome-staircase compound Ni3V2O8 (NVO) in fields up to 8.5 T applied along the c direction. (The Kagome plane is the a-c plane.) This ...
Spin-lattice order in frustrated ZnCr2O4
(American Physical Society, 2009-07-17)
Using synchrotron x-ray and neutron diffraction, we disentangle spin-lattice order in highly frustrated ZnCr2O4 where magnetic chromium ions occupy the vertices of regular tetrahedra. Upon cooling below 12.5 K the quandary ...
Quantum criticality in an organic magnet
(American Physical Society, 2006-06-30)
Exchange interactions between S=½ sites in piperazinium hexachlorodicuprate produce a frustrated bilayer magnet with a singlet ground state. We have determined the field-temperature phase diagram by high field magnetization ...
Bound spinons in an antiferromagnetic S=1/2 chain with a staggered field
(American Physical Society, 2004-07-02)
Inelastic neutron scattering was used to measure the magnetic field dependence of spin excitations in the antiferromagnetic S=1/2 chain CuCl2·2(dimethylsulfoxide) in the presence of uniform and staggered fields. Dispersive ...
Spin-trimer antiferromagnetism in La4Cu3MoO12
(American Physical Society, 2005-06-01)
La4Cu3MoO12 is a cluster antiferromagnet where copper spin-1/2 trimers form a network of strongly coupled spin trimers. The magnetic properties of this material have been examined using magnetic neutron scattering. At low ...
Neutron scattering from a coordination polymer quantum paramagnet
(American Physical Society, 2006-09-01)
Inelastic neutron scattering measurements are reported for a powder sample of the spin-1/2 quantum paramagnet Cu(quinoxaline)Br2. Magnetic neutron scattering is identified above an energy gap of 1.9 meV. Analysis of the ...
Coupled Magnetic and Ferroelectric Domains in Multiferroic Ni3V2O8
(American Physical Society, 2009-08-21)
Electric control of multi-ferroic domains is demonstrated through polarized magnetic neutron diffraction. Cooling to the cycloidal multi-ferroic phase of Ni3V2O8 in an electric field E causes the incommensurate Bragg ...
Spin gap and resonance at the nesting wave vector in superconducting FeSe0.4Te0.6
(American Physical Society, 2009-08-07)
Neutron scattering is used to probe magnetic excitations in FeSe0.4Te0.6 (Tc = 14 K). Low energy spin fluctuations are found with a characteristic wave vector (1212L) that corresponds to Fermi surface nesting and differs ...
Inhomogeneous level splitting in Pr2-xBixRu2O7
(American Physical Society, 2005-05-06)
We report that Bi doping drives Pr2-xBixRu2O7 from an antiferromagnetic insulator (x=0) to a metallic paramagnet (x≈1) with a broad low T maximum in C/T. Neutron scattering reveals local low energy spin excitations (ℎω≈1 ...
