The natural mineral linarite, PbCuSO4(OH)2, has been established as a model compound of the frustrated one-dimensional spin chain with ferromagnetic nearest-neighbor and antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor interactions [1]. Recently, it has been demonstrated that it exhibits a complex magnetic phase diagram in applied fields B || b axis up to 9.5 T for temperatures below 2.8 K [2].
Here, we present additional neutron diffraction experiments on the field induced phases of linarite, with special emphasis on the low temperature and high magnetic field regime for fields applied along the crystallographic b axis. This way, the temperature and field dependence of the magnetic moment were established for temperatures down to 50 mK and fields up to 9.5 T. As well, the nature of the phase transitions from phase IV into the surrounding phases being of first order was derived.
