Abstract
We report the magnetic diffraction pattern and spin-wave excitations in measured using elastic and inelastic neutron scattering. The magnetic structure is shown to be a -type antiferromagnet with moments pointing along the axis. By comparison with simulations based on linear spin-wave theory, we have developed a model for the magnetic interactions in this multiferroic metal-organic framework material. The interactions form a three-dimensional network with antiferromagnetic nearest-neighbor interactions along three directions of meV, meV, and meV.
