Particle-Hole Symmetry Breaking in a Spin-Dimer System TlCuCl_{3} Observed at 100 T.

The entire magnetization process of TlCuCl_{3} has been experimentally investigated up to 100 T employing the single-turn technique. The upper critical field H_{c2} is observed to be 86.1 T at 2 K. A convex slope of the M-H curve between the lower and upper critical fields (H_{c1} and H_{c2}) is clearly observed, which indicates that a particle-hole symmetry is broken in TlCuCl_{3}. By quantum Monte Carlo simulation and the bond-operator theory method, we find that the particle-hole symmetry breaking results from strong interdimer interactions.
