Abstract
We present 11B NMR studies of the 2D frustrated dimer spin system SrCu2(BO3)_{2} in the field range 27-31 T covering the upper phase boundary of the 1/8 magnetization plateau, identified at 28.4 T. Our data provide a clear evidence that above 28.4 T the spin superlattice of the 1/8 plateau is modified but does not melt even though the magnetization increases. Although this is precisely what is expected for a supersolid phase, the microscopic nature of this new phase is much more complex. We discuss the field-temperature phase diagram on the basis of our NMR data.Year: 2008 PMID: 18764284 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.101.037202
