Partial Field-Induced Magnetic Order in the Spin-Liquid Kagomé Nd3Ga5SiO14
Abstract
The distorted kagomé system Nd3Ga5SiO14 has been investigated with neutron scattering down to 0.046 K with no evidence of magnetic long range order of the Nd3+ moments in a zero field. Substantial diffuse scattering is observed which is in agreement with nearest-neighbor correlations between the fluctuating spins. Upon the application of a field in the c direction, the diffuse scattering is reduced in intensity while the magnetic Bragg peaks …
