Formation of isomorphic Ir3+ and Ir4+ octamers and spin dimerization in the spinel CuIr2S4.
Inorganic compounds with the AB2X4 spinel structure have been studied for many years, because of their unusual physical properties. The spinel crystallographic structure, first solved by Bragg in 1915, has cations occupying both tetrahedral (A) and octahedral (B) sites. Interesting physics arises wh...
