摘要
Magnetization and H-1-NMR measurements of the s = 1/2 kagome lattice antiferromagnet, [Cu-3(titmb)(2) (CH3CO2)(6)] center dot H2O, have been performed between 1.5 and 300 K to study the magnetic properties in the quantum spin frustrated magnet. The measured susceptibility obeys the Curie-Weiss law and no magnetic phase transition was observed down to 1.5 K. The spin-lattice relaxation rate T-1(-1) shows that the ground state is singlet and the first excited state is triplet separated by the energy gap. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
