Abstract

For the CuGeO3 single crystals doped with 1% of Fe the quantum critical behavior in a wide temperature range 1-40 K is reported. The critical exponents for susceptibility along different crystallographic axes are determined: α=0.34 (B||a and B||c) and α=0.31 (B||b). The description of the temperature dependences of the linewidth and g-factor could be obtained in the Oshikawa-Affleck theory assuming that staggered component of the magnetic moment is located predominantly along b-axis. Possible arguments favoring the competition between effects of the staggered field and antiferromagnetic ordering are provided.
