Field-induced double dome and Bose-Einstein condensation in the crossing quantum spin chain system
Abstract
We present inelastic neutron-scattering data on the quantum paramagnet AgVOAsO4 that establish this system as a S=1/2 alternating spin chain compound and provide a direct measurement of the spin gap Δ = 1.2 meV. We also present experimental evidence for two different types of field-induced magnetic order between μ0Hc1=8.4T and μ0Hc2=48.9 T, which may be related to Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of triplons. Thermodynamic measurements in magnetic fields up to 60 T and temperatures down to 0.1 K reveal a H–T phase diagram consisting of a dome encapsulating two ordered phases with maximum ordering temperatures of 3.8 and 5.3 K, respectively. This complex phase diagram is not expected for a single-$$\vec Q$$ BEC system and therefore establishes AgVOAsO4 as a promising multi-$$\vec Q$$ BEC candidate capable of hosting exotic vortex phases.
