摘要: Hexagonal HoMnO3 is a frustrated antiferromagnet (T(N)=72 K) ferroelectric (T(C)=875 in which these two order parameters are coupled. Our neutron measurements of the spin-wave dispersion for S=2 Mn3+ on layered triangular lattice well described by two-dimensional nearest-neighbor Heisenberg exchange J=2.44 meV, and an anisotropy D that 0.28 meV above spin-reorientation transition at 40 K 0.38 below. For H parallel c magnetic structures phase diagram have been determined, reveal additional transitions below 8 where ferroelectrically displaced Ho3+ ions ordered magnetically.
