dc.description.abstractGround states of one-dimensional antiferromagnets are topical subjects in regard of their quantum mechanical nature. Spin-Peierls (sP) systems and even-legged ladders systems, have a fundamental non magnetic state which is a singlet. It is separated by a gap, from the triplet magnetic excitations. The sP transition occurs at low temperature (TsP), in several quasi-onedimensional antiferromagnetic compounds which do not undergo a transition to long range magnetic order. Coupling with phonons leads to a crystalline distortion and the chain dimerises. CuGeO3 (TsP = 14.2 K) [1] is the first inorganic sP compound to have been discovered, NaV2O5 which is the subject of the present study, does not appear to be a conventional sP system. The sP transition is accompanied here, by charge ordering, in the sense that above TsP, one electron is orbiting around a V4+ - O2- - V4+ group, then settling on one specific vanadium ion below TsP. Depolarisation of muons have been carried out on NaV2O5, between 6 and 150 K, through the transition at TsP = 33 K. Surprisingly the transition is well fitted throughout to a stretched exponential, exp−[λ (T ).t]β (T ) . While λ rises dramatically below TsP, the exponent β is greater than 1 above TsP but falls to below 1/3 at 6 K as is the case in frustrated systems?en_AU
