Antiferromagnetism in kagome $α$-Cu$_{3}$Mg(OH)$_6$Br$_2$ (1904.13189v1)

Published 30 Apr 2019 in cond-mat.str-el

Abstract: The antiferromagnetism in $\alpha$-Cu$_3$Mg(OH)$_6$Br$_2$ was studied by magnetic-susceptibility, specific-heat and neutron-diffraction measurements. The crystal structure consists of Cu${2+}$ kagome layers with Mg${2+}$ ions occupying the centers of the hexagons, separated by Br${1-}$ ions. The magnetic system orders antiferromagnetically at 5.4 K with the magnetic moments aligned ferromagnetically within the kagome planes. The ordered moment is 0.94 $\mu_B$, suggesting little quantum and geometrical fluctuations. By comparing the magnetic and specific-heat properties with those of the haydeeite, we suggest that $\alpha$-Cu$_3$Mg(OH)$_6$Br$_2$ may be described by the two-dimensional spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg kagome model and is in the region of the ferromagnetic-order side of the phase diagram.
