We have investigated the electron spin resonance (ESR) on single crystals of BaCu$_2$Ge$_2$O$_7$ at temperatures between 300 and 2 K and in a large frequency band, 9.6 -134 GHz, in order to test the predictions of a recent theory, proposed by Oshikawa and Affleck (OA), which describes the ESR in a $S$=1/2 Heisenberg chain with the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction. We find, in particular, that the ESR linewidth, $Delta H$, displays a rich temperature behavior. As the temperature decreases from $T_{max}/2approx $ 170 K to 50 K, $Delta H$ shows a rapid and linear decrease, $Delta H sim T$. At low temperatures, below 50 K, $Delta H$ acquires a strong dependence on the magnetic field orientation and for $H | c$ it shows a $(h/T)^2$ behavior which is due to an induced staggered field $h$, according to OAs prediction.

The electron spin resonance spectrum of a quasi 1D S=1/2 antiferromagnet K2CuSO4Br2 was found to demonstrate an energy gap and a doublet of resonance lines in a wide temperature range between the Curie--Weiss and Ne`{e}l temperatures. This type of ma gnetic resonance absorption corresponds well to the two-spinon continuum of excitations in S=1/2 antiferromagnetic spin chain with a uniform Dzyaloshinskii--Moriya interaction between the magnetic ions. A resonance mode of paramagnetic defects demonstrating strongly anisotropic behavior due to interaction with spinon excitations in the main matrix is also observed.
Neutron diffraction on a triple-axis spectrometer and a small-angle neutron scattering instrument is used to study the magnetic phase transition in tetragonal Ba$_2$CuGe$_2$O$_7$ at zero magnetic field. In addition to the incommensurate cycloidal ant iferromagnetic (AFM) long-range order, we establish that weak incommensurate ferromagnetism (FM) also arises below the transition temperature $T_N$ identified by sharp Bragg peaks close to the $Gamma$ point. The intensities of both the incommensurate AFM and FM Bragg peaks vanish abruptly at $T_N$ indicative of a weak first-order transition. Above $T_N$, evidence is presented that the magnetic intensity within the tetragonal $(a,b)$ plane is distributed on a ring in momentum space whose radius is determined by the incommensurate wavevector of the cycloidal order. We speculate that the associated soft fluctuations are at the origin of the weak first-order transition in the spirit of a scenario proposed by Brazovskii.
We report the magnetization ($chi$, $M$), specific heat ($C_{text{P}}$), and neutron powder diffraction results on a quasi-two-dimensional $S$ = 2 square lattice antiferromagnet Ba$_2$FeSi$_2$O$_7$ consisting of FeO$_4$ tetragons with a large compres sive distortion (27%). Despite of the quasi-two-dimensional lattice structure, both $chi$ and $C_{text{P}}$ present three dimensional magnetic long-range order below the Neel temperature $T_{text{N}}$ = 5.2 K. Neutron diffraction data shows a collinear $Q_{m}$ = (1,0,0.5) antiferromagnetic (AFM) structure with the in-plane ordered magnetic moment suppressed by 26% below $T_{text{N}}$. Both the AFM structure and the suppressed moments are well explained by the Monte Carlo simulation with a large single-ion ab-plane anisotropy $D$ = 1.4 meV and a rather small in-plane Heisenberg exchange $J_{text{intra}}$ = 0.15 meV. The characteristic two dimensional spin fluctuations can be recognized in the magnetic entropy release and diffuse scattering above $T_{text{N}}$. This new quasi-2D magnetic system also displays unusual non-monotonic dependence of the $T_{text{N}}$ as a function of magnetic field $H$.
Combining inelastic neutron scattering and numerical simulations, we study the quasi-one dimensional Ising anisotropic quantum antiferromagnet bacovo in a longitudinal magnetic field. This material shows a quantum phase transition from a Neel ordered phase at zero field to a longitudinal incommensurate spin density wave at a critical magnetic field of 3.8 T. Concomitantly the excitation gap almost closes and a fundamental reconfiguration of the spin dynamics occurs. These experimental results are well described by the universal Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid theory developed for interacting spinless fermions in one dimension. We especially observe the rise of mainly longitudinal excitations, a hallmark of the unconventional low-field regime in Ising-like quantum antiferromagnet chains.

We report an investigation on structure and magnetic properties of the $S=3/2$ zigzag spin chain compound BaCoTe$_2$O$_7$. Neutron diffraction measurements reveal BaCoTe$_2$O$_7$ crystallizes in the noncentrosymmetric space group $Ama2$ with a canted $uparrowuparrowdownarrowdownarrow$ spin structure along the quasi-one-dimensional zigzag chain and a moment size of $1.89(2)mu_B$ at 2 K. Magnetic susceptibility and specific heat measurements yield an antiferromagnetic phase transition at $T_N=6.2$ K. A negative Curie-Weiss temperature $Theta_{CW}=-74.7(2)$ K and an empirical frustration parameter of $f=|Theta_text{CW}|/T_text{N}approx12$ is obtained from fitting the magnetic susceptibility, indicating antiferromagnetic interactions and strong magnetic frustration. By employing ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy and first principles calculations, an indirect band gap of 2.68(2) eV is determined. We propose that the canted zigzag spin chain of BaCoTe$_2$O$_7$ may produce a change of the polarization via exchange striction mechanism.
