Investigating the Dynamic Magnetic Properties of Triangular Antiferromagnet YbZnGaO4

ORAL

Abstract

Recently the antiferromagnetic triangular-lattice family of materials RMM’O4 (where R = rare earth, M and M’ = transition or main group) has attracted much attention, due to their disordered ground state and possible link to quantum spin liquid state. In this talk we present results from our recent field-dependent single-crystal diffuse and inelastic neutron scattering experiments, as well as thermal- and magneto-transport measurements performed on YbZnGaO4.
