Low-temperature specific heat study of SrCu2(BO3)2 with an exactly solvable ground state
Abstract
The specific heat of a two-dimensional spin gap system SrCu 2 (BO 3 ) 2 realizing the Shastry-Suther-land model was measured between 1.3 and 25 K under various magnetic fields up to 12 T. The analysis based on an isolated dimer model in a low temperature region revealed that the value of the spin gap at zero field is Δ = 34.4 K. It turned out that Δ decreases in proportion to H due to the Zeeman splitting of the excited triplet levels. This simplest model, however, fails to reproduce the result in a high-temperature region, suggesting rather strong spin-spin correlation of the system.

The peak structure in heat capacity is caused by spin-gap formation and is quantitatively consistent with the previous study.
“The peak structure, which is caused by the spin-gap formation, is quantitatively consistent with the previous study as shown by the blue dashed curve in Fig. 5(b).36”

Except for the high-temperature structure at 24.8 T, the C/T curves in zero and finite magnetic fields are in good agreement with reported data, both in absolute value and relative temperature dependence.
“Except for the high-temperature structure at 24.8 T, the C/T curves in zero and finite magnetic fields are in good agreement with the reported data, 36,42 both in absolute value and in the relative temperature dependence.”

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.
