Popis: Magnetic properties of single crystal β-TeVO4 with a zigzag chain of magnetic centers (V4+ ions, S = 1/2) are analyzed in the framework of the J1–J2 model. The best agreement with experimental data is obtained for the J1–J2 model with parameters J1/kB = −38.33 K and J2/kB = 29.48 K (gb = 2.07, ga,c = 1.99). In contrast to the previously used model (a uniform antiferromagnetic spin chain system with J1/kB = 21.4 K (gb = 2.28, ga,c = 2.18)), this improved result allows one to consider the object under study as a zigzag chain system with a dominant ferromagnetic exchange between the nearest neighbors and an antiferromagnetic interaction between the next-nearest neighbors.
