摘要
Neutron inelastic scattering study has been performed on aligned single crystals of quasi-two-dimensional spin-gap system CaV4O9. By analyzing the dispersion curves and the structure factor of the triplet excitation, a physical picture of the present spin system has been constructed: The plaquette singlet units of four S = 1/2 V-atoms within four ''corner-linked'' VO5 pyramids form the two-dimensional linkage of the spins by the interactions between the V-spins within the ''edge-linked'' VO5 pyramids. We have remeasured the NMR relaxation rates and obtained the spin-gap behavior consistent with the neutron results.
