Dimensional reduction due to geometric frustration – a case study — •Ulrich Tutsch1, Burkhard Schmidt2, Lars Postulka1, Bernd Wolf1, Natalija van Well1, Franz Ritter1, Cornelius Krellner1, Wolf Assmus1, and Michael Lang11Physikalisches Institut, Goethe-Universität Frankfurt, SFB/TR 49, 60438 Frankfurt (M), Germany — 2Max-Planck-Institut für Chemische Physik fester Stoffe, 01187 Dresden, Germany

Theoretical studies suggest that the frustrating zigzag bonds between the spin chains in triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnets gives rise to one-dimensional behaviour as long as J′/J ≤ 0.7. Cs2CuCl4−xBrx (0≤ x≤4) represents a good realization of such a system where the ratio J′/J of the in-plane spin-spin exchange coupling constants varies from 0.30 (x = 0) to 0.63 (x = 2), thus providing a well-suited model system for testing the frustration-induced dimensional-reduction scenario.

Here, we present specific heat data below 1 K for the compounds Cs2CuCl2Br2 and Cs2CuCl3Br, which, due to site-selective substitution, show a well-ordered halide sublattice. The results for zero magnetic field for these systems as well as for the border compounds x = 0 and x = 4 can be well described by the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain model, fully consistent with frustration-induced one-dimensional behaviour.
