Softening of breathing elastic mode and trigonal elastic mode in disordered pyrochlore magnet NaCaCo$_2$F$_7$

Abstract: Cobalt pyrochlore fluoride NaCaCo2F7 is a disordered frustrated magnet composed of Co 2+ ions with an effective spin-1 2 magnetic moment and exhibits spin freezing below T f ∼2.4 K. We perform ultrasound velocity measurements on a single crystal of the cubic NaCaCo2F7. The temperature dependence of the bulk modulus (the breathing elastic mode) exhibits Curie-type softening upon cooling below ∼20 K down to T f , which is suppressed by the magnetic field. This Curie-type softening should be a precursor to the en… Show more
