It has recently been suggested that the organic compound NiCl2-4SC(NH2)2 (DTN) undergoes field-induced Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of Ni spin degrees freedom. The S = 1 spins exhibit three-dimensional XY antiferromagnetism above a critical field H(c1) approximately 2 T. fluid can be described as gas hard-core bosons where antiferromagnetic transition corresponds to condensation. We have determined Hamiltonian DTN using inelastic neutron diffraction measurements, and we studied...

We have investigated the low-temperature T field-induced ordering in ${\mathrm{NiCl}}_{2}\ensuremath{\cdot}4\mathrm{SC}({\mathrm{NH}}_{2}{)}_{2},$ from magnetization measurements. This is an $S=1$ system with a large single-ion uniaxial anisotropy leaving singlet ground state. An external magnetic field $(\mathbf{B})$ parallel to symmetry axis induces antiferromagnetically ordered phase for ${B}_{c1}<B<{B}_{c2}.$ The establishment of this long-range order can be regarded as Bose-Einstein...
