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 ...
Magnetically driven ferroelectric order in Ni3V2O8
(American Physical Society, 2005-08-19)
We show that long-range ferroelectric and incommensurate magnetic order appear simultaneously in a single phase transition in Ni3V2O8. The temperature and magnetic-field dependence of the spontaneous polarization show a ...
S=½ chain in a staggered field: high-energy bound-spinon state and the effects of a discrete lattice
(American Physical Society, 2005-03-01)
We report an experimental and theoretical study of the antiferromagnetic S=½ chain subject to uniform and staggered fields. Using inelastic neutron scattering, we observe a bound-spinon state at high energies in the linear ...
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 ...
Magnetic inversion symmetry breaking and ferroelectricity in TbMnO3
(American Physical Society, 2005-08-19)
TbMnO3 is an orthorhombic insulator where incommensurate spin order for temperature TN<41 K is accompanied by ferroelectric order for T<28 K. To understand this, we establish the magnetic structure above and below the ...
