NMR measurements revealed successive magnetic transitions in Pb(TiO)Cu$_4$(PO$_4$)$_4$ under high fields, suggesting new magnetic structures.
The square cupola antiferromagnet Pb(TiO)Cu₄(PO₄)₄ exhibits the intriguing magnetoelectric responses arising from the consecutive change in the magnetic quadrupolar-type configuration of magnetic moments under external magnetic fields higher than 15 T. To clarify the high-field magnetic structures in Pb(TiO)Cu₄(PO₄)₄, an NMR measurement was performed in pulsed fields up to 32.2 T significantly extending the field range accessible by superconducting magnets. The double-peak structure of NMR spectra emerging above 29 T applied along the [001] direction evidences the successive magnetic transitions. The field dependence of NMR spectra was analyzed on the basis of cluster mean-field theory, which allows us to propose possible magnetic structures for the high-field magnetic states.
