Paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic resonances in the diamagnetically diluted Haldane magnet PbNi2V2O8

The impurity-induced antiferromagnetic ordering of the doped Haldane magnet Pb(Ni{1-x}Mg{x})2V2O8 (0 < x <0.06) was studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) on ceramic samples in the frequency range 9-110 GHz. Below the Néel temperature a transformation of the ESR spectrum was found, indicating an antiferromagnetic resonance mode of spin precession. The excitation gap of the spin-wave spectrum increases with increasing Mg-concentration $x$ in the same manner as the Néel temperature, reaching its maximum value of 80 GHz at x > 0.04. At small concentrations x < 0.02 the signals of antiferromagnetic resonance were found to coexist with the signal of the paramagnetic resonance indicating a microscopic separation of the magnetic phases.

Magnetic Resonance of Spin Clusters and Triplet Excitations in a Spin-Peierls Magnet with Impurities

The magnetic resonance spectrum of spin clusters formed in spin-Peierls magnets in the vicinity of impurity ions was investigated. The observed temperature dependences of the effective g-factor and the linewidth of the electron spin resonance (ESR) in crystals of Cu(1-x)Ni(x)GeO(3) are described in the model of the exchange narrowing of the two-component spectrum with one component ascribed to spin clusters and exhibiting an anomalous value of the $g$-factor and the other related to triplet excitations. An estimation of the size of the suppressed dimerization region around the impurity ion is obtained (this region includes about 30 copper ions). The dependence of the effective g-factor and the ESR linewidth on the impurity concentration at low temperatures indicates the interaction of clusters.

Separation of the magnetic phases at the Néel point in the diluted spin-Peierls magnet CuGeO3

The impurity induced antiferromagnetic ordering of the doped spin-Peierls magnet Cu(1-x)Mg(x)GeO(3) was studied by ESR technique. Crystals with the Mg concentration x<4% demonstrate a coexistence of paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic ESR modes. This coexistence indicates the separation of a macroscopically uniform sample in the paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases. In the presence of the long-range spin-Peierls order (in a sample with x=1.71%) the volume of the antiferromagnetic phase immediately below the Néel point T_N is much smaller than the volume of the paramagnetic phase. In the presence of the short-range spin-Peierls order (in samples with x=2.88%, x= 3.2%) there are comparable volumes of paramagnetic and antiferromagnetic phases at T=T_N. The fraction of the antiferromagnetic phase increases with lowering temperature. In the absence of the spin-Peierls dimerization (at x=4.57%)the whole sample exhibits the transition into the antiferromagnetic state and there is no phase separation. The phase separation is explained by the consideration of clusters of staggered magnetization located near impurity atoms. In this model the areas occupied by coherently correlated spins expand with decreasing temperature and the percolation of the ordered area through a macroscopic distance occurs.

Magnetic Resonance of the Intrinsic Defects of the Spin-Peierls Magnet CuGeO3

ESR of the pure monocrystals of CuGeO3 is studied in the frequency range 9-75 GHz and in the temperature interval 1.2-25 K. The splitting of the ESR line into several spectral components is observed below 5 K, in the temperature range where the magnetic susceptibility is suppressed by the spin-Peierls dimerization. The analysis of the magnetic resonance signals allows one to separate the signals of the S=1/2- and S=1 defects of the spin-Peierls phase. The value of g-factor of these signals is close to that of the Cu-ion. The additional line of the magnetic resonance is characterized by an anomalous value of the g-factor and by the threshold-like increase of the microwave susceptibility when the microwave power is increasing. The ESR signals are supposingly attributed to two types of the planar magnetic defects, arising at the boundaries of the domains of the spin-Peierls state with the different values of the phase of the dimerization.

Electron-spin-resonance in the doped spin-Peierls compound Cu(1-x)Ni(x)GeO3

ESR-study of the Ni-doped spin-Peierls compound CuGeO3 has been performed in the frequency range 9-75 GHz. At low temperatures the g-factor is smaller than the value expected for Cu- and Ni-ions. This anomaly is explained by the formation of magnetic clusters around the Ni-ions within a nonmagnetic spin-Peierls matrix. The transition into the AFM-state detected earlier by neutron scattering for doped samples was studied by means of ESR. For x=0.032 a gap in the magnetic resonance spectrum is found below the Neel temperature and the spectrum is well described by the theory of antiferromagnetic resonance based on the molecular field approximation. For x=0.017 the spectrum below the Neel point remained gapless. The gapless spectrum of the antiferromagnetic state in weekly doped samples is attributed to the small value of the Neel order parameter and to the magnetically disordered spin-Peierls background.
