Ba 3 BiPbREO(BO 3 ) 4 (RE = Pr, Nd, Gd, and Dy): two-dimensional rare-earth antiferromagnets with a geometrically-perfect triangular lattice directed by a triangular BO 3 unit
Abstract
exhibit dominant antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions, with no long-range order (LRO) down to 2 K, which is further confirmed by specific heat measurements. Additionally, their thermal stability and attenuated total reflectance Fourier-transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) and ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared (UV-Vis-NIR) diffuse reflectance spectra are also reported. This work provides a series of RE-based magnetic compounds with a two-dimensional triangular frustrated lattice, offering novel model materials for further investigation on rare-earth-based frustrated magnetism.
