Random singlet-like state in the dimer-based triangular antiferromagnet Ba 6 Y 2 Rh 2 Ti 2 O 17 − δ

We present the magnetic, thermodynamic, and muon spin relaxation ( μ SR ) results of the dimer-based triangular antiferromagnet Ba 6 Y 2 Rh 2 Ti 2 O 17 − δ . The magnetic susceptibility data show the sub-Curie-Weiss behavior χ ( T ) ∝ T − α χ below 100 K, suggesting random magnetism. The isothermal magnetization results reveal the presence of weakly interacting structural orphan spins about 6.1 % at 2 K, arising from the oxygen deficiency. The comprehensive μ SR experiments exhibit the coexisting relaxing and nonrelaxing components along with the thermally activated behavior in the muon spin relaxation rate, reflecting the fluctuating orphan spins in the dimer singlet background. In addition, we observe the scaling behavior of M ( H , T ) in H / T and P z ( t ) in t / H LF with the scaling exponents α χ = α M = 0.75 and α μ = 0.72 , respectively, but not for the magnetic specific heat data. The failure of the scaling relation in C m ( H , T ) / T implies low-energy excitations dressed by the conventional orphan spins. Based on these observations, we find that the magnetic ground state resembles random singlets and discuss the possible configurations of the spin dimer unit Rh 2 O 9 . Our results shed light on the role of quenched disorder in the dimer-based frustrated magnets. Published by the American Physical Society 2024

From n- to p-type material: Effect of Metal Ion on Charge Transport in Metal-Organic Materials

An intriguing new class of two-dimensional (2D) materials based on metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) has recently been developed that displays electrical conductivity, a rarity among these nanoporous materials. The emergence of conducting MOFs raises questions about their fundamental electronic properties, but few studies exist in this regard. Here, we present an integrated theory and experimental investigation to probe the effects of metal substitution on the charge transport properties of M-HITP, where M = Ni or Pt and HITP = 2,3,6,7,10,11-hexaiminotriphenylene. The results show that the identity of the M-HITP majority charge carrier can be changed without intentional introduction of electronically active dopants. We observe that the selection of the metal ion substantially affects charge transport. Using the known structure, Ni-HITP, we synthesized a new amorphous material, a-Pt-HITP, which although amorphous is nevertheless found to be porous upon desolvation. Importantly, this new material exhibits p-type charge transport behavior, unlike Ni-HITP, which displays n-type charge transport. These results demonstrate that both p- and n-type materials can be achieved within the same MOF topology through appropriate choice of the metal ion.
