چکیده
The field induced magnetic phase transitions of Cs2CuBr4 were investigated by means of magnetization process and neutron scattering experiments. This system undergoes magnetic phase transition at Neél temperature TN = 1.4K at zero field, and exhibits the magnetization plateau at approximately one third of the saturation magnetization for the field directions H ‖ b and H ‖ c. In the present study, additional symptom of the two-third magnetization plateau was found in the field derivative of the magnetization process. The magnetic structure was found to be incommensurate with the ordering vector Q = (0, 0.575, 0) at zero field. With increasing magnetic field parallel to the c-axis, the ordering vector increases continuously and is locked at Q = (0, 0.662, 0) in the plateau field range 13.1T < H < 14.4T. This indicates that the collinear up-up-down spin structure is stabilized by quantum fluctuation at the magnetization plateau.

NMR, μSR, magnetization and specific heat measurements in Li2VOSiO4 powders and single crystals are reported. Specific heat and magnetization measurements evidence that Li2VOSiO4 is a frustrated two-dimensional S = 1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a square lattice with a superexchange coupling J1, along the sides of the square, almost equal to J2, the one along the diagonal (J2/J1 = 1.1 ± 0.1 ...
متن کاملAnomalous magnetization process in frustrated spin ladders
We study, at T = 0, the anomalies in the magnetization curve of the S = 1 two-leg ladder with frustrated interactions. We focus mainly on the existence of the M = Ms/2 plateau, where Ms is the saturation magnetization. We reports the results by degenerate perturbation theory and and the density matrix renormalization group, which lead to the consistent conclusion with each other. We also touch ...
متن کاملField-induced order and magnetization plateaux in frustrated antiferromagnets
We argue that collinearly ordered states which exist in strongly frustrated spin systems for special rational values of the magnetization are stabilized by thermal as well as quantum fluctuations. These general predictions are tested by Monte Carlo simulations for the classical and Lanczos diagonalization for the S = 12 frustrated square-lattice antiferromagnet.

We report 133 Cs nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on the 2D frustrated Heisenberg antiferromagnet Cs 2 CuCl 4 down to 2 K and up to 15 T. We show that 133 Cs NMR is a good probe of the magnetic degrees of freedom in this material. Cu spin degrees of freedom are sensed through a strong anisotropic hyperfine coupling. The spin excitation gap opens above the critical saturation field....

A quasi-two dimensional antiferromagnet Cs2CuBr4 is characterized as a frustrated spin system on a distorted triangular lattice. Cs-NMR experiments on Cs2CuBr4 have been performed in the range of the magnetic field applied along b-axis up to 15.9 T, which covers the field range for the 1/3 magnetization plateau. Field dependence of T−1 1 at 0.5 K shows a hysteresis around each end of the platea...
