摘要
The quasielastic magnetic scattering from K2NiF4 over the temperature range from 97.2°K to at least 200°K is found to correspond to reciprocal lattice rods rather than points thus giving the first concrete evidence of the two-dimensional character of K2NiF4. At 97.1°K the crystal undergoes an extremely sharp phase transition to long-range order in three dimensions. From 97.0°K to 5°K the sublattice magnetization follows a (97.1-T)β law with β=0.15. © 1969 The American Physical Society.
