Approaching the Ground State of Frustrated A-site Spinels: A Combined Magnetization and Polarized Neutron Scattering Study

Harikrishnan S. Nair, Zhendong Fu, Jörg Voigt +2

We re-investigate the magnetically frustrated, {\it diamond-lattice-antiferromagnet} spinels FeAl${}_2$O${}_4$ and MnAl${}_2$O${}_4$ using magnetization measurements and diffuse scattering…
