Spin-Peierls transition in NaV2O5 in high magnetic fields
We investigate the magnetic field dependence of the spin-Peierls transition
in NaVO in the field range 16T-30T. The transition temperature exhibits
a very weak variation with the field, suggesting a novel mechanism for the
formation of the spin-Peierls state. We argue that a charge ordering transition
accompanied by singlet formation is consistent with our observations.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, final version to appear in Phys. Rev. B (RC
