Title: Quantum phase transitions and decoupling of magnetic sublattices in the quasi-two-dimensional Ising magnet Co 3V 2O 8 in a transverse magnetic field

We study the application of a magnetic field transverse to the easy axis, Ising direction in the quasi-two-dimensional kagome staircase magnet, Co 3V 2O 8, induces three quantum phase transitions at low temperatures, ultimately producing a novel high field polarized state, with two distinct sublattices. New time-of-flight neutron scattering techniques, accompanied by large angular access, high magnetic field infrastructure allow the mapping of a sequence of ferromagnetic and incommensurate phases and their accompanying spin excitations. Also, at least one of the transitions to incommensurate phases at μ 0H c1~6.25 T and μ 0H c2~7 T is discontinuous, while the final quantum critical point at μ 0H c3~13 T is continuous.
