NMR evidence of spin supersolid and Pomeranchuk effect behaviors in the triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Rb2Ni2(SeO3)3

  • We performed 85Rb nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements on the S = 1 bilayer triangular-lattice antiferromagnet Rb2Ni2(SeO3)3 in magnetic fields up to 26 T. In the field range from 3 T to 26 T, the NMR spectral lines split and their respective spectral weight ratios reveal the existence of the magnetic up-up-down (UUD) phase, although the 1/3-plateau phase is only reached at fields above 16 T. Two distinct gapless regimes are further identified: one at low fields and low temperatures, and the other at high fields and high temperatures, consistent with the spin supersolid Y and V phases. Notably, the UUD-V phase boundary exhibits a negative slope in dT/dH, where the supersolid phase is located at temperatures above the solid phase due to strong low-energy spin fluctuations.
