Abstract

The single crystal magnetic susceptibility of the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet KFeS2 is reported. The high temperature isotropic susceptibility is typical of a spin-½ Heisenberg chain. The intra- and interchain exchange constants are -44.7 K and 53.94 K, respectively. At 250 K, KFeS2 exhibits a well defined transition to a three-dimensionally ordered antiferromagnetic state. The calculated perpendicular susceptibility at 0 K considering the zero point reduction in magnetisation for a S = ½ one-dimensional chain from spin wave theory is close to the projected value obtained from the experimental data.
