Abstract

We report elastic neutron diffraction and muon spin relaxation ( \ensuremathμSR) measurements of the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnets Sr2CuO3 and Ca2CuO3, which have extraordinarily reduced TN/J ratios. We observe almost resolution-limited antiferromagnetic Bragg reflections in Sr2CuO3 and obtain a reduced ordered moment size of \ensuremath∼0.06\ensuremathμB. We find that the ratio of ordered moment size \ensuremathμ(Ca2CuO3)/\ensuremathμ(Sr2CuO3)\phantom\rule0ex0ex=\phantom\rule0ex0ex1.5(1) roughly scales with their N'eel temperatures, which suggests that the ordered moment size of quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnets decreases continuously in the limit of vanishing interchain interactions.
