摘要:

本文报道了正方晶格$J_{1}-J_{2}$量子反铁磁体BaCdVO(PO $_4$)$_2$单晶样品的磁性和量热测量结果。磁化的缩放的调查揭示了一个“降维”的几何挫折的强烈程度的指示。低于$T^{\ast}\simeq150$ ~mK的特征温度,我们观察到一个额外的强烈波动的量子相位接近完全磁饱和的出现。根据所施加的磁场的方向,它通过一阶和二阶相变与磁有序状态分离。我们认为,这一阶段可能确实与理论预测的自旋-自旋态有关。

英文摘要:

We report the magnetic and calorimetric measurements in single crystal samples of the square lattice $J_{1}-J_{2}$ quantum antiferromagnet BaCdVO(PO$_4$)$_2$. An investigation of the scaling of magnetization reveals a "dimensionality reduction" indicative of a strong degree of geometric frustration. Below a characteristic temperature of $T^{\ast}\simeq150$~mK we observe the emergence of an additional strongly fluctuating quantum phase close to full magnetic saturation. It is separated from the magnetically ordered state by first- and second-order phase transitions, depending on the orientation of the applied magnetic field. We suggest that this phase may indeed be related to the theoretically predicted spin-nematic state.
