Abstract
Our single crystal study reveals that the single-layer triangular Heisenberg antiferromagnet forms a frozen spin-disordered state, similar to the isostructural magnet . In this state, the magnetic specific heat is not only insensitive to the field, but shows a dependence that scales to of , suggesting the same underlying mechanism of the 2D coherent behavior. In contrast, the bilayer system exhibits a 3D antiferromagnetic order.
