摘要
Using magnetic, thermal and neutron measurements we show that Rb4Mn(MoO4)(3) is a quasi-2D triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet with easy-axis anisotropy and successive transitions bracketing an intermediate collinear phase. An accurate quantitative account of the phase diagram is achieved through Monte Carlo simulation of a spin Hamiltonian with easy-axis anisotropy D = 0.22J. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2011
