Spin-flop transition in Pr 2CuO 4 by neutron diffraction

A crossover in the critical behaviour of the sublattice orientation to the external magnetic field in the vicinity of the second order spin-flop transition, H c, is demonstrated by the field dependence of a magnetic reflection intensity. A strong nonmonotonic temperature dependence H c( T) has been...

Summary:A crossover in the critical behaviour of the sublattice orientation to the external magnetic field in the vicinity of the second order spin-flop transition, H c, is demonstrated by the field dependence of a magnetic reflection intensity. A strong nonmonotonic temperature dependence H c( T) has been observed at low temperature.
