چکیده

In the low dimensional spin systems SrCu2(BO3)2 and CuGeO3 the thermal conductivities along different crystal directions show pronounced double-peak structures and strongly depend on magnetic fields. For SrCu2(BO3)2 the experimental data can be described by a purely phononic heat current and resonant scattering of phonons by magnetic excitations. A similar effect seems to be important in CuGeO3, too but, in addition, a magnetic contribution to the heat transport may be present.

Theory of magnetization plateaux in the Shastry-Sutherland model.

Motivated by the remarkable properties of SrCu2(BO3) 2 in a magnetic field, we use perturbative continuous unitary transformations to determine the magnetization plateaux of the Shastry-Sutherland model, unveiling an unexpected sequence of plateaux progressively appearing at 2/9, 1/6, 1/9, and 2/15 upon increasing the interdimer coupling. We predict that a 1/6 plateau should be present in SrCu2...

High-resolution study of spin excitations in the singlet ground state of SrCu2(BO3)2.

High-resolution, inelastic neutron scattering measurements on SrCu2(BO3)2, a realization of the Shastry-Sutherland model for two-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnets, reveal the dispersion of the three single triplet excitations continuously across the (H,0) direction within its tetragonal basal plane. These measurements also show distinct Q dependencies for the single and multiple triplet e...

Temperature dependence of the pressure induced monoclinic distortion in the spin S=1/2 Shastry–Sutherland compound SrCu2(BO3)2

We investigate the monoclinic distortion that occurs at 4.7 GPa at room temperature in the frustrated Shastry–Sutherland model quantum magnet SrCu2(BO3)2 as a function of pressure and temperature by means of powder and single crystal angle dispersive synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Our results indicate that the onset of the structural distortion varies in a narrow pressure range between 4.0 and ...

Series expansions for a Heisenberg antiferromagnetic model for SrCu2„BO3...2

We use a variety of series expansion methods at both zero and finite temperature to study an antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin model proposed recently by Miyahara and Ueda for the quasi-two-dimensional material SrCu2(BO3)2. We confirm that this model exhibits a first-order quantum phase transition at T50 between a gapped dimer phase and a gapless Néel phase when the ratio x5J8/J of nearestand n...

Magnetization Measurements of Antiferromagnetic SrCu2(BO3)2 using a VSM

SrCu2(BO3)2 is a low-dimensional antiferromagnetic compound that has undergone many different magnetization studies; however, to date none have addressed the temperature dependence of the magnetization. Measuring this sample’s magnetism versus magnetic field at varying temperatures will provide insight into its quantum mechanical nature and help strengthen or refute the current theory. This exp...
