Abstract

The title compounds are the family of the AMO₂-type (R3m) crystal which has a pronounced layer structure and are promising candidates for the two-dimensional Heisenberg triangular lattice antiferromagnet (2DH TAL-AF). The interesting observation is that a singular point of the EPR signal is located around T_KM=0.66JS² for the critical temperature of phase transition associated with the pairing-dissociation of the Z₂ vortices, suggesting the present system behaves as 2DH TAL-AF down to very close to T_KM. The EPR linewidth exhibits Z₂ vortex-induced broadening above the critical temperature which is inversely proportional to the thermally excited vortex density, n_v∝exp (–E_v/k_BT) with the activation energy E_v≅4k_BT_KM.
