摘要
We have measured ESR spectra of CsNiBr3, RbNiBr3 and CsMnI3 in order to investigate the spin dynamics related to the successive phase transitions. The resonance field of the omega-1-mode, whose resonance condition at T = 0 K is given by omega/gamma = H for H perpendicular-to c, shifts toward the high-field side with increasing temperature and shows a tendency to diverge at the lower transition point T(N2). This fact seems to indicate that the local rotational fluctuations of the triangular spin structure around the c-axis are enhanced as temperature is increased and at T(N2) the distribution of the directions of the local triangular structure becomes isotropic with respect to the c-axis.
