Magentic-Field Induced Quantum Phase Transition and Critical Behavior in a Gapped Spin System TlCuCl₃

Magnetization measurements were performed on TlCuCl$_3$ with gapped ground state. The critical density and the magnetic phase diagram were obtained. The interacting constant was obtained as $U/k_{\rm B} = 313$ K. The experimental phase boundary for $T < 5$ K agrees perfectly with the magnon BEC theory based on the Hartree-Fock approximation with realistic dispersion relations and $U/k_{\rm B} = 320 $ K. The exponent $\phi$ obtained with all the data points for $T < 5$ K is $\phi = 1.99$, which is somewhat larger than theoretical exponent $\phi_{\rm BEC} =3/2$. However, it was found that the exponent converges at $\phi_{\rm BEC} =3/2$ with decreasing fitting window.
