Abstract:a b s t r a c tWe investigate the monoclinic distortion that occurs at 4.7 GPa at room temperature in the frustrated Shastry-Sutherland model quantum magnet SrCu 2 (BO 3 ) 2 as a function of pressure and temperature by means of powder and single crystal angle dispersive synchrotron X-ray diffraction. Our results indicate that the onset of the structural distortion varies in a narrow pressure range between $ 4.0 and 5.0 GPa. This result will be useful in order to distinguish between magnetic transitions related… Show more
