Abstract
Ultra-high magnetic field investigation of magnetic phases of MgCr2O4, by means of magneto-optical methods, showed a distinct similarity to that in ZnCr2O4, with clear observation of a canted 2:1:1 phase prior to a half-magnetization plateau, in spite of a difference in the tetragonal lattice symmetry in antiferromagnetic phases. The appearance of the canted 2:1:1 phase regarded as the magnetic supersolid state, sandwiched between the antiferromagnetic (superfluid) and the half-magnetization plateau (solid) states, is revealed by this study as an intrinsic and a universal phenomenon in case of the infinitesimal spin–lattice coupling limit in the three-dimensional geometrically frustrated magnet system comprised of chromium spinel oxides (ACr2O4 with A = Mg, Zn, Cd, Hg).
