Abstract
We have studied the two-dimensional S=1/2 square-lattice antiferromagnet Cu(pz)_{2}(ClO4)_{2} (where pz denotes pyrazine), using neutron inelastic scattering and series expansion calculations. We show that the presence of antiferromagnetic next-nearest-neighbor interactions enhances quantum fluctuations associated with resonating valence bonds. Intermediate magnetic fields lead to a selective tuning of resonating valence bonds and a spectacular inversion of the zone-boundary dispersion, providing novel insight into 2D antiferromagnetism in the quantum limit.Year: 2009 PMID: 19518991 DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.102.197201
