Spin dynamics and magnetism of spin systems with frustrations
Final Report Abstract
1. We studied magnetic properties of a quantum spin ladder CPPP in proximity to the isotropic limit. Remarkably, no sign of magnetic ordering was observed in the fieldinduced phase down to 40 mK. 2. We published a review article on the spin dynamics in quantum sine-Gordon chains, studied with high-field ESR studies. 3. We studied high-field spin-flop transition in the natural mineral green dioptase. The observations are described taking into account structural peculiarities of this material. 4. We performed ESR in in the molecular-based magnet CuPOF, allowing us to obtain important information on the spin-Hamiltonian parameters of this quasi-two-dimensional material. 5. Using high-field ESR technique, we observed several magnon modes in the honeycomblattice material α-RuCl3. This observation allowed us to make important statement about the nature of the elementary excitations in this frustrated material. 6. We studied the spin-dimer ground state in the anionic mixed-valence compound Rb4O6, which is driven by consecutive charge and orbital ordering transitions. 7. ESR was used to study of spin relaxation in the strong-leg spin ladder DIMPY with nonmagnetic dilution. 8. We studied low-temperature thermal conductivity of the spin-1/2 triangular-lattice Cs2CuCl4. Based on that, the one-dimensional nature of magnetic correlations was revealed in this frustrated material, in spite of its two-dimensional triangular structure. 9. We studied one- and three-dimensional quantum phase transitions and anisotropy in frustrated spin system Rb2Cu2Mo3O12. 10. We observed the 2/3 magnetization plateau in a frustrated S=1 isolated spin-triangle compound. The plateau was suggested to be as a remarkable result of the interplay between Heisenberg and biquadratic exchange interactions. 11. We studied magnetic structure and spin waves in the frustrated ferro-antiferromagnet Pb2VO(PO4)2. 12. We proposed a new approach, allowing not only to quasi-continuously tune the exchange parameters by hydrostatic pressure in spin systems with triangular lattice and staggered Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction, but also to accurately monitor them. The approach was used for Cs2CuCl4, open a new direction for investigating quantum spin systems. Moreover, a number of new field-induced transitions were observed in the high-pressure phase, whose detailed interpretation remains open question. 13. We studied magnetic properties and quantum criticality in the coupled two-leg spin ladder Ba2CuTeO6. 14. We studied low-temperature magnetic structure and magnetic properties of the quasione-dimensional S=1/2 Heisenberg helimagnet CuCl2⋅2NC5H5.
