Spin dynamics in Heisenberg triangular antiferromagnets: A muSR study of LiCrO2
A. Olariu, P. Mendels, F. Bert +4
We report a muSR study of LiCrO2, which has a magnetic lattice made up of a stacking of triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnetic (Cr3+, S = 3/2) layers. A static magnetically ordere…
Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya Anisotropy in the Spin-1/2 Kagomé Compound ZnCu(OH)Cl
A. Zorko, S. Nellutla, J. van Tol +7
We report the determination of the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction, the dominant magnetic anisotropy term in the \kagome spin-1/2 compound {\herbert}. Based on the analysis of the…
Easy-Axis Kagomé Antiferromagnet: Local-Probe Study of NdGaSiO
A. Zorko, F. Bert, P. Mendels +3
We report a local-probe investigation of the magnetically anisotropic kagomé compound NdGaSiO. Our zero-field SR results provide a direct evidence of a fluctuatin…
17O NMR study of the intrinsic magnetic susceptibility and spin dynamics of the quantum kagome antiferromagnet ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2
A. Olariu, P. Mendels, F. Bert +4
We report through 17O NMR, an unambiguous local determination of the intrinsic kagome lattice spin susceptibility as well as that created around non-magnetic defects issued from na…
Low temperature magnetization of the S=1/2 kagome antiferromagnet ZnCu_3(OH)_6Cl_2
F. Bert, S. Nakamae, F. Ladieu +5
The dc-magnetization of the unique S=1/2 kagome antiferromagnet Herbertsmithite has been measured down to 0.1K. No sign of spin freezing is observed in agreement with former muSR a…
Quantum magnetism in the paratacamite family: towards an ideal kagome lattice
P. Mendels, F. Bert, M. A. de Vries +7
We report MuSR measurements on the S=1/2 (Cu2+) paratacamite Zn_xCu_{4-x}(OH)_6Cl_2 family. Despite a Weiss temperature of -300 K, the x=1 compound is found to have no transition t…
