Abstract:The antiferromagnetic pyrochlore material NaCaCo2F7 is a thermal spin liquid over a broad temperature range (≈ 140 K down to TF = 2.4K), in which magnetic correlations between Co 2+ dipole moments explore a continuous manifold of antiferromagnetic XY states. 1 The thermal spin liquid is interrupted by spin freezing at a temperature that is ∼ 2 % of the mean field interaction strength, leading to short range static XY clusters with distinctive relaxation dynamics. Here we report the low energy inelastic neutron… Show more
