Disentangling orbital and spin exchange interactions for Co2+ on a rocksalt lattice

Neutron spectroscopy was applied to study the magnetic interactions of orbitally degenerate Co2+ on a host MgO rocksalt lattice where no long-range spin or orbital order exists. The paramagnetic nature of the substituted monoxide Co0.03Mg0.97O allows for the disentanglement of spin exchange and spin...
