自旋-1/2 Kagome 反铁磁体中低场 $1/9$ 磁化平台的微观起源仍未得到解决。在此,我们表明化学压力重塑了钛基 Kagome 家族 $\mathrm{Cs_8AB_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$($A=\mathrm{Rb},\mathrm{Li}$;$B=\mathrm{K},\mathrm{Na}$)中分数磁化平台的层级结构。高达 60 T 的高场磁化测量揭示了在膨胀的 $\mathrm{Cs_8RbK_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ 和 $\mathrm{Cs_8LiK_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ 化合物中存在稳健的 $1/9$ 平台相,尽管传统上更稳健的 $1/3$ 平台缺失。相比之下,压缩的 $\mathrm{Cs_8LiNa_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ 既未表现出 $1/9$ 平台相,也未表现出量子无序基态。比热测量和第一性原理计算表明,晶格膨胀保持了受挫的、完全连接的 Kagome 交换网络和无能隙的量子无序基态,而压缩则将交换网络重组为弱耦合的准一维子系统,并诱导了连续的磁相变。这些结果表明,$1/9$ 和 $1/3$ 平台不一定具有共同的微观起源,并提示 $1/9$ 平台可能代表受挫自旋-1/2 Kagome 磁性中更为普遍的特征。
英文摘要
The microscopic origin of the low-field $1/9$ magnetization plateau in spin-$1/2$ kagome antiferromagnets remains unresolved. Here, we show that chemical pressure reshapes the hierarchy of fractional magnetization plateaus in the titanium-based kagome family $\mathrm{Cs_8AB_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ ($A=\mathrm{Rb},\mathrm{Li}$; $B=\mathrm{K},\mathrm{Na}$). High-field magnetization measurements up to 60 T reveal a robust $1/9$ plateau-like phase in the expanded $\mathrm{Cs_8RbK_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ and $\mathrm{Cs_8LiK_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ compounds, despite the absence of the conventionally more robust $1/3$ plateau. In contrast, compressed $\mathrm{Cs_8LiNa_3Ti_{12}F_{48}}$ exhibits neither the $1/9$ plateau-like phase nor a quantum-disordered ground state. Specific-heat measurements and first-principles calculations show that lattice expansion preserves a frustrated, fully connected kagome exchange network and gapless quantum-disordered ground states, whereas compression reorganizes the exchange network into weakly coupled quasi-one-dimensional subsystems and induces successive magnetic transitions. These results demonstrate that the $1/9$ and $1/3$ plateaus need not share a common microscopic origin and suggest that the $1/9$ plateau may represent a more universal feature of frustrated spin-$1/2$ kagome magnetism.
