The magnetic field evolution of ground spin states of the stacked planar triangular antiferromagnet with antiferromagnetic interlayer interaction J c is explored using a minimal 3D classical Heisenberg model. A bi-quadratic coupling is also used to mimic the effect of spin fluctuations (Zhitomirsky 2015 J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 592 012110) which are known to stabilize the magnetization plateau. A single ion anisotropy is included and states with a magnetic field applied in the ab plane and along the c axis are determined. For [Formula: see text]-plane, an additional new state, in contrast to 2D model (Zhitomirsky 2015 J. Phys.: Conf. Ser. 592 012110), is obtained with weak interlayer interaction, while the magnetization plateau vanishes at large J c and other new states with z components of spins emerge. For [Formula: see text]-axis, an extra state, compared with 2D model, is obtained with a weak interlayer interaction. When J c is large enough, only the state corresponding to the Umbrella phase in 2D model exits.

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Two-Bond Coupling (Geminal Coupling)
The central atom need not be NMR-active because its electrons are affected by the electron polarization of the spin-active atoms. However, spin information is transmitted less effectively than in one-bond coupling, and 2J values are usually weaker than 1J values. The energy of...
Spin–Spin Coupling: Three-Bond Coupling (Vicinal Coupling)
The extent of coupling depends on the C‑C bond length, the two H‑C‑C angles, any electron-withdrawing substituents, and the dihedral angle between the involved orbitals. The...
