| Research Abstract |
We have studied a typical S=1/2 Heisenberg alternating spin chain system ; pentafulorophenyl nitronyl nitroxide (F_5PNN) and a novel magnetic system with two critical field regios ; (CH_3)_2NH_2CuCl_3 (DMACuCl_3) to investigate field induced phase transitions and Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid phase in spin-gapped system.
In F_5PNN, we found a field induced magnetic ordering between Hc1=3T and Hc2=6.5T below T=250mK. Characteristic behaviors are observed depending on the magnetic field up to above Hc2 outside of the H-T phase boundary for the field induced phase. The temperature and field dependence of the specific heat are qualitatively in good agreement with the theoretical calculation on an S=1/2 spin gapped system.
In DMACuCl_3,a spontaneous magnetic ordering is observed below Hc1=2T, while no magnetic ordering is in the 1/2 magnetization plateau field region from Hc1=2T to Hc2 =3.5T. A field induced magnetic ordering emerges above Hc2=3.5T, which grows with increasing magnetic field up to H=8T.
