Dynamical Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction in KCuF3.

چکیده
The spin dynamics of the prototypical quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic Heisenberg spin S=1/2 chain KCuF3 is investigated by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Our analysis shows that the peculiarities of the spin dynamics require a new dynamical form of the antisymmetric anisotropic spin-spin interaction. This dynamical Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction is related to strong oscillations of the bridging fluorine ions perpendicular to the crystallographic c axis. This new mechanism allows us to resolve consistently the controversies in observation of the magnetic and structural properties of this orbitally ordered perovskite compound.

High frequency ESR investigation on dynamical charge disproportionation and spin gap excitation in NaV
A significant frequency dependence of the ESR line width is found in NaV 2 O 5 between 34-100 K and the line width increases as the resonance frequency is increased from 95 GHz to 760 GHz. The observed frequency dependence is qualitatively explained in terms of the dynamical charge disproportiona-tion. The present results show the essential role of the internal charge degree of freedom in a V-O...
متن کاملDzyaloshinsky-Moriya anisotropy in the spin-1/2 kagome compound ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2.
We report the determination of the Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interaction, the dominant magnetic anisotropy term in the kagome spin-1/2 compound ZnCu3(OH)6Cl2. Based on the analysis of the high-temperature electron spin resonance (ESR) spectra, we find its main component |Dz|=15(1) K to be perpendicular to the kagome planes. Through the temperature dependent ESR linewidth, we observe a building up of...
متن کاملCritical phenomena of canonical spin glass systems with large Dzyaloshinsky–Moriya anisotropy
We have studied critical phenomena of spin glass transition for larger Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya anisotropy Heisenberg spin glass system, PtMn. The analysis of nonlinear magnetizations in the framework of the existence of a phase transition at Tg yields the critical exponents = 2.5 ± 0.3, = 1.5 ± 0.3 and = 1 ± 0.3. These results suggest that the universality class of spin glass transition on P...
متن کاملSpin–orbit coupled molecular quantum magnetism realized in inorganic solid
Molecular quantum magnetism involving an isolated spin state is of particular interest due to the characteristic quantum phenomena underlying spin qubits or molecular spintronics for quantum information devices, as demonstrated in magnetic metal-organic molecular systems, the so-called molecular magnets. Here we report the molecular quantum magnetism realized in an inorganic solid Ba3Yb2Zn5O11 ...
متن کاملDzyaloshinski-Moriya interactions in the kagomé lattice
The kagomé lattice exhibits peculiar magnetic properties due to its strongly frustated cristallographic structure, based on corner sharing triangles. For nearest neighbour antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions there is no Néel ordering at zero temperature both for quantum and classical spins. We show that, due to the peculiar structure, antisymmetric Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya interactions (D.(Si...
