Abstract: | We report on heat capacity measurements of the spin-Peierls compound CuGeO3 under magnetic fields between 0 and 22 teslas. We have determined the magnetic phase diagram between the three different phases (U=uniform,I=incommensurate,D=dimerised) of this system, unknown up to now forH>14 T, and which can be well interpreted within the Hartree-Fock approximation. We have studied the 2nd order phase transition forH=const. at the crossing ofD-U andI-U phases. The spin-Peierls transition gives rise to a well pronounced specific heat jump. The phase diagram and the specific heat results are discussed in the framework of a B.C.S.-like theoretical model. |
