Abstract

Development of multi-extreme electron spin resonance (ESR) measurement system is in progress in Kobe. We have installed the pulsed magnetic field up to 55 T and our high field ESR system can cover the frequency region from 30 GHz to 7 THz. Our aim is to extend our high field ESR system to the multi-extreme ESR measurement system by combining low temperature, high pressure and nano techniques, and the combination with the high pressure is focused in the paper. High pressure can be achieved up to 1.4 GPa by using the transmission type piston cylinder pressure cell. We have succeeded in combining the high field and the high pressure. As an example, the pressure dependence of the spin gap in SrCu2(BO3)2, S=1/2 Shustally-Sutherland dimer system, observed by our multi-extreme ESR measurement is presented. This measurement is the direct and precise measurement of the spin gap, and the spin gap decreased from 723 GHz (34.7 K) to 581 GHz (27.9 K) at 1.2 GPa.
