Itinerant magnetic excitations in antiferromagnetic CaFe2As2
(American Physical Society, 2009-05-08)
Neutron scattering measurements of the magnetic excitations in single crystals of antiferromagnetic CaFe2As2 reveal steeply dispersive and well-defined spin waves up to an energy of ~100 meV. Magnetic excitations above 100 ...
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 ...
Central mode and spin confinement near the boundary of the superconducting phase in YBa2Cu3O6.353 (Tc=18 K)
(American Physical Society, 2006-03-01)
We have mapped the neutron scattering spin spectrum at low energies in YBa2Cu3O6.353 (Tc=18 K), where the doping ~0.06 is near the critical value (pc=0.055) for superconductivity. No coexistence with long-range-ordered ...
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-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 ...
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 ...
Anisotropic three-dimensional magnetism in CaFe2As2
(American Physical Society, 2008-11-28)
Inelastic neutron scattering measurements of the magnetic excitations in CaFe2As2 indicate that the spin wave velocity in the Fe layers is exceptionally large and similar in magnitude to the cuprates. However, the spin ...
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 ...
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 ...
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 ...
