我们利用扇区分辨的超块对角化方法（SBDM），并结合对弱耦合层的转移矩阵处理，研究了畸变三角量子反铁磁体 $\mathrm{Cu}_3(\mathrm{OH})_4(\mathrm{HCO}_2)_2$ 的场依赖低能热力学。由 Cu1--Cu1 二聚体内耦合 $J_2=150\\,\mathrm{K}$ 主导的强交换层级，将高能二聚体扇区与主要由 Cu2 矩构成的更软磁流形分离开来。在 24 位点簇中，16 个 Cu1 自旋形成强束缚扇区，而 8 个 Cu2 自旋保持磁活性；这 8 个自旋的极化给出 $S^z=4$，而饱和值 $S^z_{\rm sat}=12$，从而为三分之一磁化标度提供了直接的微观起源。有限温度热力学揭示了低能标度的非单调场演化：主导的 $C/T$ 特征随场增强而软化，在约 $2\\,\mathrm{T}$ 的场区域附近达到最小值，随后随低温磁化趋近 $M_{\rm sat}/3$ 而重新硬化。因此，温度与场扫描共同揭示了普遍的场致谱重构，而显著降低的熵反映了二聚体激发标度以下热活性自由度的受限数量。我们的结果将强二聚化导致的活性磁希尔伯特空间缩减，以及随后场驱动的残余自旋扇区重组，确定为三分之一磁响应和非单调低温热力学的共同微观起源。
英文摘要
We investigate the field-dependent low-energy thermodynamics of the distorted triangular quantum antiferromagnet $\mathrm{Cu}_3(\mathrm{OH})_4(\mathrm{HCO}_2)_2$ using a sector-resolved Superblock Diagonalization Method (SBDM) supplemented by a transfer-matrix treatment of weakly coupled layers. The strong exchange hierarchy, dominated by the Cu1--Cu1 intradimer coupling $J_2=150\,\mathrm{K}$, separates a high-energy dimer sector from a much softer magnetic manifold formed predominantly by the Cu2 moments. In the 24-site cluster, sixteen Cu1 spins form the strongly bound sector while eight Cu2 spins remain magnetically active; polarization of these eight spins gives $S^z=4$ compared with $S^z_{\rm sat}=12$, providing a direct microscopic origin for the one-third magnetization scale. The finite-temperature thermodynamics reveals a non-monotonic field evolution of the low-energy scale: the dominant $C/T$ feature softens with increasing field, reaches a minimum near the field region around $2\,\mathrm{T}$, and subsequently hardens as the low-temperature magnetization approaches $M_{\rm sat}/3$. Temperature and field sweeps thus expose a common field-induced spectral reconstruction, while the strongly reduced entropy reflects the restricted number of thermally active degrees of freedom below the dimer excitation scale. Our results identify strong-dimer-induced reduction of the active magnetic Hilbert space, followed by field-driven reorganization of the residual spin sector, as the common microscopic origin of the one-third magnetic response and the non-monotonic low-temperature thermodynamics.
