摘要

We report on the microscopic magnetic model of a spin-1/2 magnet BaV_3O_8. In contrast to earlier phenomenological analysis, our density-functional band-structure calculations combined with quantum Monte Carlo simulations establish a relatively simple and nonfrustrated model of weakly coupled spin chains with intrachain coupling J (~) 38 K and Neel temperature T_N (~) 6 K, both in excellent agreement with experiment. The intrachain coupling between spin-1/2 V~(+4) ions takes place via two contiguous V~(+5)O_4 tetrahedra forming an extended superexchange pathway with the V~(+4)-V~(+4) distance of 7.44 A. Surprisingly, this pathway is preferred over shorter V~(+4)-V~(+4) connections, owing to peculiarities in the interacting orbitals of the magnetic V~(+4) ions and V~(+5) ions that are nonmagnetic, but feature low-lying 3d states contributing to the superexchange process. We also note that the crystal structure of BaV_3O_8 supports the long-sought uniform arrangement of Dzyaloshinsky-Moriya (DM) couplings on a spin-1/2 chain. While our calculations yield only a weak DM anisotropy in BaV_3O_8, the crystal structure of this compound provides a suitable framework for the search of spin chains with the uniform DM anisotropy in other compounds of the vanadate family.
