Abstract:We have successfully synthesized a triangular lattice magnet, NaTmTe 2 , and conducted thermodynamic and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) investigations using single-crystal samples. Our magnetic susceptibility χ (T ) measurements indicate antiferromagnetic interactions between Tm 3+ moments. In our INS experiments, we observe a series of dispersive crystal electric field (CEF) excitations. These dispersions could be attributed to quantum tunneling effects arising from anisotropic spin exchange interactions,… Show more
