Nonmagnetic impurity effects of the spin disordered state in the triangular antiferromagnet NiGa2S4 were studied through magnetic and thermal measurements for Ni1−xZnxGa2S4 (0.0≤x≤0.3). Only 1% substitution is enough to strongly suppress the coherence observed in the spin disordered state. However, the suppression is not complete and the robust feature of the T2-dependent specific heat and its scaling behavior with the Weiss temperature indicate the existence of a coherent Nambu–Goldstone mode. The absence of either conventional magnetic order or bulk spin freezing suggests a novel symmetry breaking of the ground state.
