Neutron scattering study of spinel LiCrMnO$$_4$$

Matsuda, Masaaki; Honda, Zentaro*; Katori, Hiroko*; Takagi, Hidenori*

LiCrMnO$$_4$$ has the spinel structure, in which the Cr$$^{3+}$$ and Mn$$^{4+}$$ moments with $$S$$=3/2 are randomly located at the corners of the tetrahedron. It shows a spin-glass behavior below $$T_gsim$$13 K suggested from the magnetic susceptibility experiments. Our neutron scattering study shows that short-range magnetic correlations with characteristic $$Qsim$$0.6 and 1.6 $AA$^{-1}$$ develop at low temperatures. The correlation with $$Qsim$$1.6 $AA$^{-1}$$ is explained by the antiferromagnetic fluctuations originating from the hexagonal spin clusters, which is proposed in ZnCr$$_2$$O$$_4$$. We plan to perform neutron scattering experiments in magnetic field in the near future.
