Abstract.

We report the breaking of one-dimensional (1D) magnetism in a spin-1 chain antiferromagnet Ni2V2O7. First, basic structure and magnetization data are presented, showing that the compound is ordered at \( T_{N}=7\) K and a field-induced spin-flop transition occurs at \( H_{sf}=2.8\) T. Second, high-field electronic spin resonance (ESR) data demonstrate antiferromagnetic (AFM) resonance modes below T N, which can be well understood by conventional AFM resonance theory with uniaxial anisotropy. Third, the first-principles calculations based on density function theory reveal a much larger interchain AFM interaction than the intrachain couplings. Combining with all these results, we can see that Ni2V2O7 is not a 1D antiferromagnet, although it is a skew chain from the viewpoint of crystallographic structure.
