Birchite Cd$$_{2}$$Cu$$_{2}$$(PO$$_{4}$$)$$_{2}$$SO$$_{4}$$ $$cdot$$ 5H$$_{2}$$O as a model antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 Heisenberg $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$-$${it J}$$$$_{2}$$ chain

$${it S}$$ = 1/2 Heisenberg $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$-$${it J}$$$$_{2}$$ chain antiferromagnets have been investigated extensively due to their exotic magnetic states. Here, we report the magnetic behavior of birchite Cd$$_{2}$$Cu$$_{2}$$(PO$$_{4}$$)$$_{2}$$SO$$_{4}$$$$cdot$$5H$$_{2}$$O and its effective spin model. Experimental studies by magnetic susceptibility, magnetization, heat capacity, and $$mu$$SR measurements indicate the absence of long-range order down to 0.4 K. Theoretical studies reveal that birchite is a model compound for the $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$-$${it J}$$$$_{2}$$ antiferromagnetic chain: the intrachain interactions $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$ and $${it J}$$$$_{2}$$ are antiferromagnetic and their magnitude is about 100 times larger than the interchain interactions. The magnitude of $${it J}$$$$_{2}$$ is two to three times larger than that of $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$, thus the spin gap is expected to be only a few percent of that of $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$. The temperature dependence of the specific heat shows a broad peak at about 1 K ($$simeq$$ 0.036 $${it J}$$$$_{1}$$), which suggests the presence of a spin gap.
