| Research Abstract |
In the present study we investigated the magnetic properties of organic compound Triphenylverdazyl (TPV) by magnetization measurement and neutron diffraction using single crystal samples. We succeeded in growing fairly large single crystals of TPV using recrystalization method in acetone solution. Hexagonal plate crystals with maximum weight of 18mg which is enough for neutron diffraction experiments were obtained.
We measured magnetization using a vibrating sample magnetometer and a SQUID magnetometer. We found that magnetic susceptibility shows broad maximum around 5K indicating low dimensional mgnetic nature. Below T_N the magnetization abruptly increases due to onset of weak ferromagnetism which is the first observation in organic compounds. From the magnetic susceptibility below T_N the direction of the magnetic moment was estimated to be along the b-axis.
Neutron diffraction experiment was made using a triple-axis spectrometer TOPAN of Tohoku University at JRR-3 in Tokai. Magnetic neutron diffraction peak of (101) was observed, but other peaks were found to have very weak magnetic intensity. From these neutron diffraction data we determined magnetic structure of TPV.The magnetic moment on TPV molecule couples antiferromagnetically along the c-axis direction with the spins lying in the b-axis.
Our present work indicatesd that neutron diffraction is very useful for understanding the magnetism in organic compounds.
