AI总结:

研究通过中子和μ子谱学及数值模拟,发现NaCa₂Cu₂(VO₄)₃在极低温下表现出自旋液体行为,归因于强摩擦相互作用和温度依赖的Jahn-Teller效应。

摘要:

三维量子自旋液体一直难以捉摸,这限制了较大的晶格连通性导致的量子涨落减少,这是高维系统固有的特性。在这里,我们研究了几乎体心立方Garnet NaCa₂Cu₂(VO₄)₃中动态短程磁相关性在T=50 mK下持续存在,这比其Curie-Weiss温度低两个数量级。通过结合中子和μ子谱学以及数值模拟,我们证明了一种动态区域的出现,其特征是不弹性的光谱中由短寿命色散激发和准弹性成分组成的双重响应。强摩擦交换相互作用结合微妙的温度依赖的Jahn-Teller自旋-晶格效应是解释这种自旋液体行为的可能机制。

英文摘要:

Three-dimensional quantum spin liquids have remained elusive, hindered by reduced quantum fluctuations from larger lattice connectivity inherent to high-dimensional systems. Here, we investigate the remarkable persistence of dynamical short-range magnetic correlations in the nearly body-centered cubic garnet NaCa$_{2}$Cu$_{2}$(VO$_{4}$)$_{3}$ down to $T = 50$ mK, two orders of magnitude below its Curie-Weiss temperature. Using a combination of neutron and muon spectroscopies plus numerical simulations, we demonstrate that a dynamical regime emerges, characterized by a dual response in the inelastic spectrum composed of short-live dispersive excitations and a quasi-elastic component. Strongly frustrated exchange interactions combined with subtle temperature-dependent Jahn-Teller spin-lattice effects are a plausible mechanism to explain the origin of this spin-liquid behavior.
