The Ba3Cu3In4O12 stands for unique topology of the magnetic subsystem. It consists of rotated by 90\Box$^b$ relative to each other "paper-chain" columns made of vertex-sharing CuIO4 and CuIIO4 planar units. The overall pattern of the copper ions is that of a three-dimensional Shastry-Sutherland network. At high temperatures, the magnetic susceptibility follows the Curie-Weiss law with positive Weiss temperature indicating strong predominance of ferromagnetic coupling. At low temperatures, however, this compound reaches the antiferromagnetically ordered state and experiences non-trivial succession of two spin-flop and two spin-flip transitions reaching full saturation in modest magnetic fields. Here we show that the possible ground state in Ba3Cu3In4O12 can be three-dimensional orthogonal arrangement of the Cu2+ (S = 1/2) magnetic moments forming three virtually independent antiferromagnetic subsystems. In this arrangement, favored by anisotropic exchange interactions, the quantum fluctuations provide the coupling between three mutually orthogonal magnetic subsystems resulting in an impressive "order by disorder" effect.
Electronic Transport on the Shastry-Sutherland Lattice in Ising-type Rare Earth Tetraborides
在存在磁场的情况下，受抑自旋系统可以在饱和磁化强度的分数值处表现出平台。这样的平台状态是稳定的经典和量子机制，包括有序无序，三重态结晶，和各种竞争秩序的影响。在导电系统的情况下，自由电子代表了对平台态的敏锐探测。本文研究了Ising型稀土四硼化物$R$ B $_4$（$R=$ Er，Tm）的电输运性质。我们发现，纵向和横向折射率反映了静态和动态平台结构的散射。我们模拟这些结果与预期的强单轴各向异性在定量水平一致，提供了一个框架的研究平台状态的金属阻挫系统。
