摘要:

本文报道了一种新的三角晶格反铁磁体Ba $_3$ CoTa $_2$ O $_9$的合成和磁性。由于晶场和自旋轨道耦合的共同作用,Co $^{2+}$的有效自旋在低温下为$J=1/2$. Ba $_3$ CoTa $_2$ O $_9$在零外加磁场下经历了$T_{N1}\simeq0.70$ ~K和$T_{N2}\simeq0.57$ ~K两个连续的磁相变,这是易轴磁各向异性三角形反铁磁体的典型相变.随着磁场的增加,转变异常被发现向低温方向移动,证实了转变的反铁磁性质。在更高的领域,在热容数据的过渡峰消失,让位给一个广泛的最大值,这可以归因于肖特基异常由于塞曼分裂的自旋能级。该化合物的$H-T$相图显示出三个不同的相。这些阶段的可能性质进行了讨论。

英文摘要:

Here, we report the synthesis and magnetic properties of a new triangular lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_3$CoTa$_2$O$_9$. The effective spin of Co$^{2+}$ is found to be $J=1/2$ at low temperatures due to the combined effect of crystal field and spin-orbit coupling. Ba$_3$CoTa$_2$O$_9$ undergoes two successive magnetic phase transitions at $T_{N1}\simeq0.70$~K and $T_{N2}\simeq0.57$~K in zero applied field, which is typical for triangular antiferromagnets with the easy-axis magnetic anisotropy. With increasing field, the transition anomalies are found to shift toward low temperatures, confirming the antiferromagnetic nature of the transitions. At higher fields, the transition peaks in the heat capacity data disappear and give way to a broad maximum, which can be ascribed to a Schottky anomaly due to the Zeeman splitting of spin levels. The $H-T$ phase diagram of the compound shows three distinct phases. The possible nature of these phases is discussed.
