abstract = {The present thesis provides extensive investigations on the
effect of geometrical spin frustration in both
molecular-based spin clusters and infinite pyrochlore
lattice, using advanced neutron scattering, DC and AC
susceptibilities, and specific heat methods. Clear
short-range spin correlations have been observed in the
spin-frustrated molecular magnet {Mo$_{72}$Fe$_{30}$} by
means of polarized neutron scattering. Simulations of the
spin correlations were carried out within a frustrated
three-sublattice spin model. The simulations are in
reasonable agreement with the differential magnetic cross
section measured at 1.5 K. The specific heat of
{Mo$_{72}$Fe$_{30}$} was measured down to 60 mK. The
low-lying magnetic excitations of {Mo$_{72}$Fe$_{30}$} are
identified by the Schottky anomalies in the specific heat
data, consistent with the theoretical predictions of quantum
rotational band model. The nature of the magnetic ground
state of {Mo$_{72}$Fe$_{30}$} can therefore be interpreted
within the three-sublattice spin model, where the 30
Fe$^{3+}$ spins are divided into three sublattices with
equal and coplanar unit vectors each. The low-lying magnetic
excitations of single molecular magnet {As$_{6}$V$_{15}$}
were determined by means of specific heat measurements down
to 60 mK. The resultant energy spectrum agrees with the
theoretical predictions of the “three-spin” model and
the results of inelastic neutron scattering experiments.
Hence the “three-spin” model is a good approach to the
magnetic ground state of {As$_{6}$V$_{15}$}. Complicated
magnetic behaviors have been observed in the
antiferromagnetic pyrochlore Na$_{3}$Co(CO$_{3}$)$_{2}$Cl.
The average crystal structure of
Na$_{3}$Co(CO$_{3}$)$_{2}$Cl was determined by means of
X-ray and neutron powder diffraction measurements. Though
there is no site disorder in the Co$^{2+}$ magnetic
sublattice, positional disorder may exist in Na and Cl atom
sites. The DC and AC susceptibility measurements show a
spin-glass-like transition at 4.5 K, and a field- and
frequency- independent kink at 17 K. Temperature dependence
of the specific heat exhibits a peak at 1.5 K due to a
long-range magnetic order, a broad hump at 5 K associated
with the spin-glass-like transition, and a very small hump
at 17 K. The diffuse neutron scattering with polarization
analysis reveals short-range spin correlations dominated by
antiferromagnetic coupling over the range of nearest
neighbors. Ferromagnetic coupling exists between
next-nearest neighbors. Long-range magnetic order below
