Magnetic properties of ferro-antiferromagnetic spin triangle chain

Abstract

We study the frustrated spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ model consisting of a linear chain of triangles with ferro (F)- and antiferromagnetic (AF) interactions connected by ferromagnetic interactions (triangles chain). The ground state phase diagram as a function of the frustration parameter (a ratio of F and AF interactions) and the interaction between triangles consists of the ferromagnetic, two ferrimagnetic and the singlet phases. We study the magnetic properties in these phases and analyze the magnetization curves. We show that there are the magnetization plateau in the singlet phase and the magnetization jumps in some region of this phase. We study the low-thermodynamics and its relation to the specific structure of the excitation spectrum of the triangle chain.
