Quantum Paramagnet and Frustrated Quantum Criticality in a Spin-One Diamond Lattice Antiferromagnet
Motivated by the proposal of topological quantum paramagnet in the diamond lattice antiferromagnet NiRh2O4, we propose a minimal model to describe the magnetic interaction and properties of the diamond material with the spin-one local moments. Our model includes the first and second neighbor Heisenberg interactions as well as a local single-ion spin anisotropy that is allowed by the spin-one na...
متن کاملMetallic spin-liquid behavior of the geometrically frustrated Kondo lattice.
Strongly frustrated magnetism of the metallic pyrochlore oxide Pr2Ir2O7 has been revealed by single crystal study. While Pr 4f moments have an antiferromagnetic RKKY interaction energy scale of /T*/ = 20 K mediated by Ir 5d-conduction electrons, no magnetic long-range order is found except for partial spin freezing at 120 mK. Instead, the Kondo effect, including a lnT dependence in the resistiv...
متن کاملM ar 1 99 6 New valence bond crystal phase of a frustrated spin - 12 square lattice antiferromagnet
We propose a new type of magnetically disordered ground state for a frustrated quantum antiferromagnet. This disordered state is an array of spin singlets spontaneously formed on four spin plaquettes. Both perturbation results and bond-operator calculations show that this phase has lower energy than the columnar dimer state. Analysis of available numerical data on finite clusters also supports ...
متن کاملClassical Spin Liquid on the Maximally Frustrated Honeycomb Lattice.
We show that the honeycomb Heisenberg antiferromagnet with J_{1}/2=J_{2}=J_{3}, where J_{1}, J_{2}, and J_{3} are first-, second-, and third-neighbor couplings, respectively, forms a classical spin liquid with pinch-point singularities in the structure factor at the Brillouin zone corners. Upon dilution with nonmagnetic ions, fractionalized degrees of freedom carrying 1/3 of the free moment eme...
متن کاملSpin waves in the frustrated kagomé lattice antiferromagnet KFe3(OH)6(SO4)2.
The spin wave excitations of the S=5/2 kagomé lattice antiferromagnet KFe3(OH)6(SO4)2 have been measured using high-resolution inelastic neutron scattering. We directly observe a flat mode which corresponds to a lifted "zero energy mode," verifying a fundamental prediction for the kagomé lattice. A simple Heisenberg spin Hamiltonian provides an excellent fit to our spin wave data. The antisymme...
