The complex interplay of spin frustration and quantum fluctuations inlow-dimensional quantum materials leads to a variety of intriguing phenomena.This research focuses on a detailed analysis of the magnetic behavior exhibitedby NdZnPO, a bilayer spin-1/2 triangular lattice antiferromagnet. Theinvestigation employs magnetization, specific heat, and powder neutronscattering measurements. At zero field, a long-range magnetic order is observedat $T_{\rm N}=1.64~\rm K$. Powder neutron diffraction experiments show theIsing-like magnetic moments along the $c$-axis, revealing a stripe-likemagnetic structure with three equivalent magnetic propagation vectors.Application of a magnetic field along the $c$-axis suppresses theantiferromagnetic order, leading to a fully polarized ferromagnetic state above$B_{\rm c}=4.5~\rm T$. This transition is accompanied by notable enhancementsin the nuclear Schottky contribution. Moreover, the absence of spin frustrationand expected field-induced plateau-like phases are remarkable observations.Detailed calculations of magnetic dipolar interactions revealed complexcouplings reminiscent of a honeycomb lattice, suggesting the potentialemergence of Kitaev-like physics within this system. This comprehensive studyof the magnetic properties of NdZnPO highlights unresolved intricacies,underscoring the imperative for further exploration to unveil the underlyinggoverning mechanisms.
