Abstract
We have successfully synthesized a hyperkagome antiferromagnet by a topochemical method, where ions with spins form a three-dimensional (3D) corner-sharing triangle network. Magnetic susceptibility and heat capacity measurements revealed an antiferromagnetic transition at . Although no evidence was found for any structural distortion accompanying the transition, the low-temperature magnetic heat capacity showed a nearly dependence, suggesting the realization of a 2D magnonlike excitation in the 3D hyperkagome lattice.
