Abstract

The magnetic susceptibilities of CsMnCl3·2H2O and CsMnCl3·2D2O have been measured at temperatures between 0.35 and 35 K. Above ∼9 K both salts show the broad susceptibility maximum of the one-dimensional Heisenberg antiferromagnet previously seen in the hydrate. In both cases the intrachain exchange parameter isJ/k=−3.00 K. AtT N (4.89 K for the hydrate) three-dimensional antiferromagnetic long-range order begins to develop due to weak interchain interactions with preferred alignment along theb axis. AtT N all susceptibility-temperature curves have their maximum slopes, those of χ a and χ c being negative. This is shown to be related to the unusual phase diagram of these systems. The limiting behavior of the susceptibilities asT → 0 K is established and interpreted. χ(0) reflects the strong anisotropy of the spinwave spectrum due to the dominant intrachain interaction.
