Abstract
We demonstrate that TiOCl is a good model inorganic system to investigate spin-Peierls state. Our 35Cl and 47,49Ti NMR data show that a pseudo spin-gap behavior below T*=135 K precedes successive phase transitions at Tc=94 K and Tc′ = 66 K into a singlet spin-Peierls ground state with a large energy gap Eg/kB=430 K. © 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
