Abstract

We present an X-band and tunable high-frequency/high-field electron spin resonance (HF-ESR) study of single-crystalline Ca10Cr7O28, which constitutes alternating antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic kagome bilayers. At high temperatures, a phonon-assisted relaxation process is evoked to account for the pronounced increase of the linewidth in an exchange-narrowing regime (kBT≫J). In contrast, at low temperatures (kBTJ), a power-law behavior in line narrowing is observed. Our data reveal two distinct power-law regimes for the linewidth which crossover at T∗≈7.5K. Notably, the intriguing evolution of the ESR linewidth in this alternating kagome bilayer system with opposite sign of exchange interactions highlights distinct spin dynamics compared to those in a uniform kagome antiferromagnet.
