Abstract

The zero field structural and dynamic properties of the mixed valence ternary oxide α-CoV3O8 has been investigated using a combination of diffraction, DC susceptibility and inelastic neutron scattering measurements. The low temperature magnetic properties are consistent with a random macroscopic distribution of jeff = 1/2 Co2+ over the 16k metal sites with evidence for local ordering. Co2+ cations exhibit Ising anisotropy and are coupled via a 3D network composed of competing weaker ferro intra- and stronger antiferromagnetic interplanar superexchange, giving rise to long range antiferromagnetic order at TN 19 K. We identify similarities between α-CoV3O8 and dilute 3D Ising antiferromagnets. Such a comparison suggests that α-CoV2O8 may represent a non-doped analogy to random dilute 3D Ising antiferromagnets.
