We report Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (NQR) investigation of the S = 1/2 quasi-two-dimensional (2D) honeycomb lattice antiferromagnet InCu2/3V1/3O3. Previous studies on this compound have revealed signatures of an antiferromagnetic transition at TN = 38 K [1,2], though the nature of the magnetic ground state still remains an open question. In the NQR experiment the 115In spectra exhibit a line splitting at T < TN signaling the development of local magnetic fields in the vicinity of a magnetic phase transition. The T-dependence of the longitudinal nuclear relaxation rate T1−1 shows a characteristic sharp peak upon approaching TN=38 K, which we associate with 2D magnetic order. Remarkably, with further decreasing temperature a second, much broader peak develops at T* = 15 K suggesting rearrangement of the magnetic state. We discuss this peculiar feature and possible scenarios of magnetic order in InCu2/3V1/3O3.
