Three-dimensional Bose-Einstein Condensation in the Spin-1/2 Ferromagnetic-leg Ladder 3-Br-4-F-V

Abstract

The critical exponent of the phase boundary has been examined on the three-dimensional incommensurate ordering phase in the spin-1/2 ferromagnetic-leg ladder 3-Br-4-F-V [=3-(3-bromo-4-fluorophenyl)-1,5-diphenylverdazyl]. Using the temperature-window fitting technique, we obtained the critical exponents which agreed with the three-dimensional (3D) Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) universality class at both sides of the lower critical field and the saturation field. 3-Br-4-F-V thus becomes a new member of the quantum magnets which prove the universality of the 3D BEC exponent.
