摘要
The 2D kagome system Pr(3)Ga(5)SiO(14) has been previously identified as a spin-liquid candidate in zero field, displaying no magnetic long-ranged order down to at least 35 mK. Perturbations upon such systems, either under applied fields or applied pressure, should induce a spin freezing phase transition, but there are very few experimental realizations of this phenomena other than the well-studied 3D pyrochlore Tb(2)Ti(2)O(7). In this Letter, we report the observation of a spin freezing phase transition in Pr(3)Ga(5)SiO(14) through the application of chemical pressure-that is, through a systematic substitution on the Si site with larger ions and an elongation of the nearest-neighbor Pr-Pr distance in the kagome lattice. This results in a suppression of the T(2) component of the heat capacity, and the reduction of the exchange constant eventually leads to dipolar-driven spin freezing.
