摘要:

用常规固相反应法合成了锰铜酸盐化合物Gd 3Ba 2 Mn 2Cu 2 O 12(Gd-3222),并通过直流和交流磁化强度(M)和热容(C)随温度(T)的变化研究了其磁性。该化合物结晶为四方晶系结构(空间群I4/mmm)。我们发现,该化合物具有三个磁过渡,约2.5,4.8和9 K,从直流和交流磁化率(chi)数据推断。然而,在1.8 K以上,没有发现C(T)中存在明确的反常的证据,尽管在10 K以下有一个逐渐上升的趋势。磁场的应用导致在5 K附近的峰值,而ac χ在低于9 K时显示出非常弱的频率依赖性。等温M曲线在1.8 K表现出弱滞后没有任何证据饱和,即使在高达120 kOe的领域。这些结果表明,该化合物在低温下经历了自旋玻璃般的冻结,尽管在10 K下的磁性转变的确切性质尚不清楚。从M和C数据推断,磁热效应的大小在低于50 K的宽温度范围内相当大,峰值在4 K左右。

英文摘要:

The manganocuprate compound Gd3Ba2Mn2Cu2O12 (Gd-3222) has been synthesized by conventional solid state reaction method and its magnetic behavior has been studied by dc and ac magnetization (M) and heat capacity (C) measurements as a function of temperature (T). This compound crystallizes in a tetragonal structure (space group I4/mmm). We find that this compound exhibits three magnetic transitions, around 2.5, 4.8 and 9 K, as inferred from dc and ac magnetic susceptibility (chi) data. However, no evidence for a well-defined lambda-anomaly is found in C(T) above 1.8 K, though there is a gradual upturn below about 10 K. An application of a magnetic field results in a peak around 5K, while ac chi appears to show a very weak frequency dependence below 9 K. Isothermal M curve at 1.8 K exhibits a weak hysteresis without any evidence for saturation even at fields as high as 120 kOe. These results imply that this compound undergoes a spin-glass-like freezing at low temperatures, though the exact nature of the magnetic transition at 10 K is not clear. The magnitude of the magnetocaloric effect, as inferred from M and C data, is quite large over a wide temperature range below 50 K peaking around 4 K.
