Low-energy excitations in DTN below Tc: ESR studies
NiCl2-4SC(NH2)2 (known as DTN) is an S 1 system with an easy-plane anisotropy dominating over the exchange interaction and exhibiting a field-induced antiferromagnetic ordering with critical fields Bc1=2.1 T, Bc2=12.6 T and temperature Tcmax ∼ 1.2 K.

Zusammenfassung: | NiCl2-4SC(NH2)2 (known as DTN) is an S 1 system with an easy-plane anisotropy dominating over the exchange interaction and exhibiting a field-induced antiferromagnetic ordering with critical fields Bc1=2.1 T, Bc2=12.6 T and temperature Tcmax ∼ 1.2 K. A systematic study of the low-energy excitation spectrum of DTN in the ordered phase at temperatures down to 0.45 K is presented. It is showed that two observed gapped modes can be consistently interpreted within a four-sublattice antiferromagnet model with a weak isotropic corner-center interaction of magnetic ions in the body-centered tetragonal lattice. |
