AbstractA breathing pyrochlore system is predicted to host a variety of quantum spin liquids. Despite tremendous experimental and theoretical efforts, such sought-after states remain elusive as perturbation terms and lattice distortions lead to magnetic order. Here, we utilize bond alternation and disorder to tune a magnetic ground state in the Cr-based breathing pyrochlore LiGa1−xInxCr4O8. By combining thermodynamic and magnetic resonance techniques, we provide experimental signatures of a spin-liquid-like state in x = 0.8, namely, a nearly T2-dependent magnetic specific heat and persistent spin dynamics by muon spin relaxation (μSR). Moreover, 7Li NMR, ZF-μSR, and ESR unveil the temporal and thermal dichotomy of spin correlations: a tetramer singlet on a slow time scale vs. a spin-liquid-like state on a fast time scale. Our results showcase that a bond disorder in the breathing pyrochlore offers a promising route to disclose exotic magnetic phases.

In this chapter, the neutron inelastic scattering spectrum is calculated for a variety of magnetic systems. A number of isolated magnetic systems are considered, including single-ion crystal field and intermultiplet excitations, and magnetic clusters. Linear spin-wave theory, a method for calculating the collective spin dynamics in magnetically ordered systems, is outlined and applied to ferromagnets and antiferromagnets both with and without anisptropy. The Random Phase Approximation (RPA) method for the generalized susceptibility is presented and applied to calculate the spectrum of crystal field excitons in praseodymium. The nature of the spin excitations in itinerant magnets is described, and the generalized susceptibility is calculated in the RPA for itinerant electrons with echange correlations. General features of the spin dynamical response in quantum magnets are described, and illustrated by the magnetic spectra of quantum spin chains.
