Rare-earth delafossites are materials containing ideal triangular magnetic planes, which are frustrated. Due to their properties, rare-earth delafossites are promising candidates for a QSL ground state. In recent years this state occured in some S=1/2-delafossites with transitions in the mK range.
Now a number of own new measurements were made on NaGdS2 single crystals. This delafossite with magnetic Gd3+ ions, which has been extensively investigated for the first time, is of special interest due to the pure spin moment J=S=7/2. Measurements of several different thermodynamic and magnetic properties were performed on very small samples (size ∼ µm) down to lowest temperatures (40 mK).
Essential physical data could be extracted, which show correspondingly a AFM-groundstate below ∼250 mK, which is kind of expected. An additionally investigated modification at 60 K, indicating an anisotropy in the system, is still under theoretical debate and will form a main part of the talk.
