Interplay of chemical pressure and hydrogen insertion effects in $ {\bf CeRhSn} $ from first principles
摘要:
在局域自旋密度泛函理论(LSDF)的金属间氢化物系统$ {\rm CeRhSnH_x} $的范围内的离散模型组合物$ 0.33 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $进行了调查。本研究的目的是评估实验氢化物组合物$ {\rm CeRhSnH_{0.8}} $附近铈价态的变化。电子结构、磁性结构和化学成键性质的分析表明,$ 1 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $的铈离子为三价铈离子。相反,对于较低的氢量,氢化物体系对于铈保持在中间价态,如在$ {\rm CeRhSn} $中。从体积膨胀效应和化学键效应两个方面分析了氢的插入效应。后者对Ce的价态特征变化有主要影响。自旋极化的计算点进行的Ce $ 4f $状态的有限磁矩,其幅度增加与$ x_H $的范围$ 1 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $。
英文摘要:
Investigations within the local spin density functional theory (LSDF) of the intermetallic hydride system $ {\rm CeRhSnH_x} $ were carried out for discrete model compositions in the range $ 0.33 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $. The aim of this study is to assess the change of the cerium valence state in the neighborhood of the experimental hydride composition, $ {\rm CeRhSnH_{0.8}} $. In agreement with experiment, the analyses of the electronic and magnetic structures and of the chemical bonding properties point to trivalent cerium for $ 1 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $. In contrast, for lower hydrogen amounts the hydride system stays in an intermediate-valent state for cerium, like in $ {\rm CeRhSn} $. The influence of the insertion of hydrogen is addressed from both the volume expansion and chemical bonding effects. The latter are found to have the main influence on the change of Ce valence character. Spin polarized calculations point to a finite magnetic moment carried by the Ce $ 4f $ states; its magnitude increases with $ x_H $ in the range $ 1 \leq x_H \leq 1.33 $.
