Abstract
1H NMR measurement was performed for a single crystal
sample of the organic Mott insulator
-(ET)
2Cu
2(CN)
3 with a nearly isotropic
triangular lattice. The 1H NMR spectra and the spin-lattice relaxation rate,
1/
T1, show no indication of magnetic transition down to 30 mK. However, the
line shows a slight but gradual broadening accompanied with only a moderate
increase in the spin-lattice relaxation rate, 1/
T1, below 4 K. It suggests a
possible change of spin dynamics of the frustrated quantum spins.
Key words. Triangular lattice - Mott insulator - spin liquid.
