中文摘要:
我们报导新 kagome 量旋转液体候选人 Cu 3 Zn (哦)6 FBr,不经历任何阶段转变在下面到 50 mK,比 antiferromagnetic Curie-Weiss 温度低的超过三份订单(~ 200 K ) 。在低温度的清楚的差距开始在从 19 F 原子磁性的回声大小。我们观察为 fractionalized spin-1/2 spinon 刺激期望的差距的典型磁场依赖。我们的试验性的结果在一个拓扑地订的旋转系统为旋转 fractionalization 提供坚挺的证据,类似于处于部分量霍尔状态的起诉 fractionalization。
英文摘要:
We report a new kagome quantum spin liquid candidate CuaZn(OH)6FBr, which does not experience any phase transition down to 50inK, more than three orders lower than the antiferromagnetic Curie-Weiss temperature (-200 K). A clear gap opening at low temperature is observed in the uniform spin susceptibility obtained from 19F nuclear magnetic resonance measurements. We observe the characteristic magnetic field dependence of the gap as expected for fractionalized spin-1/2 spinon excitations. Our experimental results provide firm evidence for spin fractionalization in a topologically ordered spin system, resembling charge fraetionalization in the fractional quantum Hall state.
