摘要:

我们研究了Na $_2$ Co $_2$ TeO $_6$的磁性,它具有蜂窝晶格的磁性Co $^{2+}$离子,通过宏观表征和粉末样品的中子衍射。我们已经表明,这种材料的订单在锯齿形反铁磁结构。除了允许线性磁电耦合之外,这种磁性排列还显示出非常特殊的空间磁相关性,在蜂窝平面中比平面之间更大,并且不随温度而变化。我们已经研究了这种行为的Monte Carlo计算使用$J_1$ - $J_2$ - $J_3$模型的蜂窝晶格上的一个小的面间相互作用。我们的模型再现了实验中子结构因子,虽然它的温度演化的情况下,必须是由于额外的成分,如化学无序或量子涨落增强的接近相边界。

英文摘要:

We have studied the magnetic properties of Na$_2$Co$_2$TeO$_6$, which features a honeycomb lattice of magnetic Co$^{2+}$ ions, through macroscopic characterization and neutron diffraction on a powder sample. We have shown that this material orders in a zig-zag antiferromagnetic structure. In addition to allowing a linear magnetoelectric coupling, this magnetic arrangement displays very peculiar spatial magnetic correlations, larger in the honeycomb planes than between the planes, which do not evolve with the temperature. We have investigated this behavior by Monte Carlo calculations using the $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ model on a honeycomb lattice with a small interplane interaction. Our model reproduces the experimental neutron structure factor, although its absence of temperature evolution must be due to additional ingredients, such as chemical disorder or quantum fluctuations enhanced by the proximity to a phase boundary.
