We have performed high-field magnetization and ESR measurements on Ba$_3$CoSb$_2$O$_9$ single crystals, as a representative two-dimensional spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a uniform triangular lattice, and have determined all the…
We report the results of magnetization and specific heat measurements on Ba$_3$NiSb$_2$O$_9$, which is a quasi-two-dimensional spin-1 triangular-lattice antiferromagnet. We observed a nonclassical magnetization plateau at one-third of the…
We study the magnetization process of the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a layered triangular lattice by means of a numerical cluster mean-field method with a scaling scheme (CMF+S). It has been known that antiferromagnetic…
Magnetization plateaus in quantum magnets---where bosonic quasiparticles crystallize into emergent spin superlattices---are spectacular yet simple examples of collective quantum phenomena escaping classical description. While magnetization…
We present single-crystal neutron scattering measurements of the spin-1/2 equilateral triangular lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_3$CoSb$_2$O$_9$. Besides confirming that the Co$^{2+}$ magnetic moments lie in the ab plane for zero magnetic…
After decades of debate, now there is a rough consensus that at zero temperature the spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the triangular lattice is three-sublattice $120^\circ$ magnetically ordered, in contrast to a quantum spin liquid…
$\gamma$-${\rm Ba}_{3}{\rm CoNb}_{2}{\rm O}_{9}$ realizes a disordered simple-cubic spin-$1/2$ lattice in which Co$^{2+}$ ions randomly occupy one third of the sites, placing the system close to the site-percolation threshold for magnetic…
The ground state of the spin-$1/2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a distorted triangular lattice is studied using a numerical-diagonalization method. The network of interactions is the $\sqrt{3}\times\sqrt{3}$ type; the interactions are…
We report the results of low-temperature thermal and magnetic measurements on Ba$_3$CoNb$_2$O$_9$ powder, described as a uniform triangular-lattice antiferromagnet (TLAF) with a fictitious spin-1/2. Ba$_3$CoNb$_2$O$_9$ is found to undergo…
We report the crystal structure of Ba$_2$La$_2$CoTe$_2$O$_{12}$ determined by Rietveld analysis using X-ray powder diffraction data. It was found from magnetic measurements that Ba$_2$La$_2$CoTe$_2$O$_{12}$ can be described as a spin-1\2…
The magnetic phases of the ideal spin-1/2 triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_3$CoSb$_2$O$_9$ are identified and studied using $^{135,137}$Ba nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in magnetic fields ranging to 30T, oriented…
Ba$_3$CoSb$_2$O$_9$ approximates the two-dimensional spin-1/2 triangular-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet. This compound displays magnetic-field-induced quantum phase transitions, including the 1/3-magnetization-plateau, but its…
We synthesized a quasi-two-dimensional distorted triangular lattice antiferromagnet Ca$_3$CoNb$_2$O$_9$, in which the effective spin of Co$^{2+}$ is 1/2 at low temperatures, whose magnetic properties were studied by dc susceptibility and…
The ferrimagnetic spin-1/2 chain composed of alternating Ising and Heisenberg spins in an arbitrarily oriented magnetic field is exactly solved using the spin-rotation transformation and the transfer-matrix method. It is shown that the…
A linear spin-wave approach, a variational method and exact diagonlization are used to investigate the magnetic long-range order (LRO) of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a two-dimensional 1/7-depleted triangular (maple leaf)…
We use Schwinger boson mean field theory to study the antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on an anisotropic triangular lattice in the presence of a uniform external magnetic field. We calculate the field dependence of the spin…
We present a quantum Monte Carlo study of a Heisenberg antiferromagnet on a spatially anisotropic square lattice, where the coupling strength in the x-direction ($J_x$) is different from that in the y-direction ($J_y$). By varying the…
Here, we report the synthesis and magnetic properties of a new triangular lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_3$CoTa$_2$O$_9$. The effective spin of Co$^{2+}$ is found to be $J=1/2$ at low temperatures due to the combined effect of crystal field…
We apply the coupled cluster method and exact diagonalzation to study the uniform susceptibility and the ground-state magnetization curve of the triangular-lattice spin-1 Heisenberg antiferromagnet. Comparing our theoretical data for the…
We present numerical evidence that the spin-1/2 Heisenberg model on the two-dimensional checkerboard lattice exhibits several magnetization plateaux for m=0, 1/4, 1/2 and 3/4, where m is the magnetization normalized by its saturation value.…
