Spectroscopic investigation of a spin liquid (RVB) state and local distortions in the frustrated spin-1/2 Copper Carbodiimide (CuNCN) — Azat Sharafeev¹, Vladimir Gnezdilov², •Peter Lemmens¹, Xiaohui Liu³, Andrei Tchougreeff³, and Richard Dronskowski³ — ¹TU-BS, Braunschweig — ²ILTP, Kharkov — ³RWTH Aachen

In CuNCN there exist corrugated layers of Cu2+ bridged by NCN2- groups with a square planar Cu2+ coordination. Based on very large AF exchange and frustration a nonmagnetic ground state is observed. On the other side, some evidence for hidden magnetic order with strong fluctuations typical for low dimensionality has been given. We critically discuss the presently known scenarios on the basis of Raman scattering data, giving evidence for local lattice distortions for T<60K as well as high energy excitations.
