abstract = {Using high-pressure single-crystal x-ray diffraction
combined with thermodynamic measurements and
density-functional calculations, we uncover the microscopic
magnetic model of the mineral brochantite,
Cu$_4$SO$_4$(OH)$_6$, and its evolution upon
compression. The formation of antiferromagnetic spin chains
with the effective intrachain coupling of 𝐽≃100K is
attributed to the occurrence of longer Cu–Cu distances and
larger Cu–O–Cu bond angles between the structural chains
within the layers of the brochantite structure. These zigzag
spin chains are additionally stabilized by ferromagnetic
couplings 𝐽$_2$ between second neighbors and moderately
frustrated by several antiferromagnetic couplings that
manifest themselves in the reduced Néel temperature of the
material. Pressure tuning of the brochantite structure keeps
its monoclinic symmetry unchanged and leads to the growth of
antiferromagnetic 𝐽 with the rate of 3.2 K/GPa,
although this trend is primarily caused by the enhanced
ferromagnetic couplings 𝐽$_2$. Our results show that the
nature of magnetic couplings in brochantite and in other
layered Cu$^{2+}$ minerals is controlled by the size of the
lattice translation along their structural chains and by the
extent of the layer buckling.},
