Abstract
NMR studies of a geometrically frustrated system, Co 2 Cl(OH) 3 , are carried out at low temperature. The NMR results of 59 Co and 1 H nuclei show that long-range ordered ferromagnetic moments on the triangular lattice plane coexist microscopically with disordered moments on the kagome lattice plane. The moment direction is not ordered. Although the disordered moments freeze within the NMR observation time (10 -4 s) at low temperature, the frozen moments begin to fluctuate with increasing temperature. Up to 4.2 K (0.4 T C ), the magnitude of the ferromagnetically ordered moments is independent of temperature.
