Abstract

Magnetic and electrical properties of Ag2MnO2 were examined by elastic and inelastic neutron-scattering measurements and by density-functional calculations. The spins of the triangular antiferromagnet metal Ag2MnO2 are found to freeze into a gapless short-range collinear state below 50 K because of a ferro-orbital ordering and spin-orbit coupling of the high-spin Mn3+ ions. The decrease in the spin-spin correlation lengths of Ag2 MnO2 in the order, Î¾b â?« Î¾a â?« Î¾c, is explained by the spin-exchange interactions calculated for the ferro-orbital ordered state. The electronic states around the Fermi level have significant contributions from the spin-polarized Mn3d and O2p states, which makes electron-electron scattering dominate over electron-phonon scattering at low temperatures leading to the Ï?â?? T2 behavior below 50 K. Â© 2010 The American Physical Society.
