Quantum Spin Relaxation with THz Attempt Frequency in the 1/3-Fire, 2/3-Ice Ferrimagnet SmMn$_2$Ge$_2$
Ferrimagnets in which half the spins are disordered and half ordered, so-called half-fire, half-ice state, have been advanced theoretically as a route towards realizing exotic magnetic ground states. Here we demonstrate novel single-spin resonance in SmMn$_2$Ge$_2$, a 1/3-fire, 2/3-ice material. Usi…
