Magnetic versus nonmagnetic doping effects on the magnetic ordering in the Haldane chain compound PbNi2V2O8

Abstract

A study of an impurity driven phase-transition into a magnetically ordered state in the spin-liquid Haldane chain compound PbNi2V2O8 is presented. Both, macroscopic magnetization as well as 51V nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements reveal that the spin nature of dopants has a crucial role in determining the stability of the induced long-range magnetic order. In the case of nonmagnetic (Mg2+) doping on Ni2+ spin sites (S=1) a metamagnetic transition is observed in relatively low magnetic fields. On the other hand, the magnetic order in magnetically (Co2+) doped compounds survives at much higher magnetic fields and temperatures, which is attributed to a significant anisotropic impurity-host magnetic interaction. The NMR measurements confirm the predicted staggered nature of impurity-liberated spin degrees of freedom, which are responsible for the magnetic ordering. In addition, differences in the broadening of the NMR spectra and the increase of nuclear spin-lattice relaxation in doped samples, indicate a diverse nature of electron spin correlations in magnetically and nonmagnetically doped samples, which begin developing at rather high temperatures with respect to the antiferromagnetic phase transition.
