Spin-spin pair correlation function of a new potential spin liquid
The frustration of triangular antiferromagnets with isotropic interactions leads to a variety of ground states even for classical spins. In regions where several classical phases are degenerate, quantum spins may realize a quantum ground state with lower energy. From symmetry analysis, 15 different types of quantum spin liquid ground states have been classified for the triangular lattice, symmetric spin liquids as well as chiral spin liquids. Due to the lack of suitable highly symmetric compounds, such spin liquids are experimentally not so much explored. Recently a new spin 1/2 triangular antiferromagnet has been synthesized, CuSb2O6 in rosiaite (PbSb2O6) structure, space group P-31m. In this highly symmetric structure, the spin 1/2 is carrying by Cu2+. Down to 1.5K there was no evidence of long-range order. In order to clearly separate magnetic scattering from the nuclear part, we would like to perform XYZ polarization analysis on D7. Further analysis of the data will be the key in the understanding of the interaction scheme in this compound. To prove spin liquid scenario we would like to go to the lowest possible temperature, thus we are additionally asking for dilution fridge.
