摘要:

我们已经进行了高磁场下的单晶Li $_2$ MnO $_3$,蜂窝晶格反铁磁体的研究。在高达35 T的外加磁场下,利用磁化测量绘制了其磁相图。我们的研究结果表明,它经历了两个连续的亚磁转变约9 T场施加垂直于ab平面(沿c* 轴)。这些相变是完全不存在的磁化强度与沿ab-平面施加的字段。为了理解这种磁相图,我们从正确的Neel型磁结构出发,建立了一个平均场模型,该模型与我们在零场下的单晶中子衍射数据一致。我们的模型计算成功地解释了当Li $_2$ MnO $_3$从零场Neel相进入两个不同的自旋翻转相时出现的两个亚磁跃迁。

英文摘要:

We have carried out high magnetic field studies of single-crystalline Li$_2$MnO$_3$, a honeycomb lattice antiferromagnet. Its magnetic phase diagram was mapped out using magnetization measurements at applied fields up to 35 T. Our results show that it undergoes two successive meta-magnetic transitions around 9 T fields applied perpendicular to the ab-plane (along the c*-axis). These phase transitions are completely absent in the magnetization measured with field applied along the ab-plane. In order to understand this magnetic phase diagram, we developed a mean-field model starting from the correct Neel-type magnetic structure, consistent with our single crystal neutron diffraction data at zero field. Our model calculations succeeded in explaining the two meta-magnetic transitions that arise when Li$_2$MnO$_3$ enters two different spin-flop phases from the zero field Neel phase.
