摘要
We present the study of magnetic susceptibility of pyrochlores Gd2Ti2O7, Dy2Ti2O7 and Tb2Ti2O7 which belong to frustrated magnets. The temperature dependence of the susceptibility chi(T) of powder samples was measured in the temperature range from 4.2 to 300 K and analyzed in the framework of mean field approximation taking into account both crystal field effects and anisotropy of the exchange interaction. We developed a simple approach allowing us to estimate interaction energies of magnetic ions from chi(T) dependences and data on wave functions of the crystal-field states of the ions using a minimum number of fitting parameters. We revealed a strong anisotropy of the exchange interaction in the paramagnetic state of Gd2Ti2O7 and obtained nearest-neighbor effective bond energies of the magnetic ions in Tb2Ti2O7 and Dy2Ti2O7 which are in good agreement with the temperatures of formation of the spin-ice state in these compounds.
