Structure of the exotic spin-flop states in BaCu2Si2O7
arXiv:cond-mat/0112196 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.65.174416
Abstract
The unusual 2-stage spin flop transition in BaCu2Si2O7 is studied by single-crystal neutron diffraction. The magnetic structures of the various spin-flop phases are determined. The results appear to be inconsistent with the previously proposed theoretical explanation of the 2-stage transition.
