摘要:

我们报告的结构和磁性的PrOFeAs,新发现的Fe-As超导体的母相之一,作为测量的中子粉末衍射。与其它REOFeAs材料一样,在136 K以下冷却时发现四方-正交相变,在$\sim$ 85 K以下检测到$k =$(1,0,1)条纹Fe磁性。磁序参量测量表明,在$\sim$ 40 K时,沿a轴的有序Fe磁矩达到最大值,低于此值时,c轴发生反常膨胀,导致在2 K时的负热体积膨胀率为0.015%.我们建议,这种效果,这是抑制在超导样品中,是由一个微妙的相互作用Fe和Pr有序矩。

英文摘要:

We report the structure and magnetism of PrOFeAs, one of the parent phases of the newly discovered Fe-As superconductors, as measured by neutron powder diffraction. In common with other REOFeAs materials, a tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transition is found on cooling below 136 K and striped Fe magnetism with $k =$(1,0,1) is detected below $\sim$ 85 K. Our magnetic order parameter measurements show that the ordered Fe moment along the a axis reaches a maximum at $\sim$ 40 K, below which an anomalous expansion of the c axis sets in, which results in a negative thermal volume expansion of 0.015 % at 2 K. We propose that this effect, which is suppressed in superconducting samples, is driven by a delicate interplay between Fe and Pr ordered moments.
