Spin Dynamics of the Spin-1/2Kagome Lattice AntiferromagnetZnCu3(OH)6Cl2
Open accessAbstract
We have performed thermodynamic and neutron scattering measurements on the $S=1/2$ kagom\'e lattice antiferromagnet ${\mathrm{ZnCu}}_{3}(\mathrm{OH}{)}_{6}{\mathrm{Cl}}_{2}$. The susceptibility indicates a Curie-Weiss temperature of ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{CW}}\ensuremath{\simeq}\ensuremath{-}300\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{K}$; however, no magnetic order is observed down to 50 mK. Inelastic neutron scattering reveals a spectrum of low energy spin excitations with no observable gap down to 0.1 meV. The specific heat at low-$T$ follows a power law temperature dependence. These results suggest that an unusual spin liquid state with essentially gapless excitations is realized in this kagom\'e lattice system.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
