Effect of magnesium doping on the orbital and magnetic order in LiNiO(2)
In LiNiO2, the Ni3+ ions, with S=1/2 and twofold orbital degeneracy, are arranged on a triangular lattice. Using muon-spin relaxation and electron-spin resonance (ESR), we show that magnesium doping does not stabilize any magnetic or orbital order despite the absence of interplane Ni2+. A disordered...
