Single-ion anisotropy driven chiral magnetic order in a spin-1 antiferromagnetic chain
S. Vaidya, S. P. M. Curley, P. Manuel +17
Chirality in magnetic systems gives rise to a wide range of exotic phenomena, yet its influence in chains remains largely unexplored. Here, we present a comprehensive experim…
Magnetoelastic dynamics of the "spin Jahn-Teller" transition in CoTiO
K. Guratinder, R. D. Johnson, D. Prabhakaran +10
CoTiO has the paradox that low temperature static magnetic order is incompatible with the crystal structure owing to a mirror plane that exactly frustrates magnetic int…
Magnetic-field-induced ordering in a spin-1/2 chiral chain
Rebecca Scatena, Alberto Hernandez-Melian, Benjamin M. Huddart +12
We present neutron diffraction, muon spin rotation and pulsed-field magnetometry measurements on the Heisenberg quantum chiral chain [Cu(pym)(H2O)4]SiF6.H2O, which displays a four-…
Magnetic properties of a staggered chain Ni(pym)(HO)(NO) with an alternating single-ion anisotropy direction
S. Vaidya, S. P. M. Curley, P. Manuel +13
Materials composed of spin-1 antiferromagnetic (AFM) chains are known to adopt complex ground states which are sensitive to the single-ion-anisotropy (SIA) energy (), and intrac…
Pseudo-easy-axis anisotropy in antiferromagnetic diamond-lattice systems Ni(pym)
S. Vaidya, A. Hernández-Melián, J. P. Tidey +12
We investigate the magnetic properties of antiferromagnetic diamond lattice, Ni(pyrimidine) ( = Cl, Br), hosting a single-ion anisotropy (SIA) orientation whi…
