Research Abstract |
It is proposed that spin-Peierls transition, where 1-dimensional(1D) magnetic correlation is only dominant, takes place accompanied by an orbital ordering of Ti t_<2g> in TiOBr. In this research program, we performed inelastic neutron scattering experiments in order to investigate the magnetic dynamics involving the spin gap. In the experiment at LANCSE, it is observed a magnetic signal at 10 meV, whose momentum dependence is well explained by 1D structure factor. In more precice measurement at J-PARC, we successfully observed a new signal at lower energy of 6 meV.
