Ground state and stability of the fractional plateau phase in metallic Shastry–Sutherland system TmB4
Abstract We present a study of the ground state and stability of the fractional plateau phase (FPP) with M/Msat = 1/8 in the metallic Shastry–Sutherland system TmB4. Magnetization (M) measurements show that the FPP states are thermodynamically stable when the sample is cooled in constant magnetic fi...
