摘要:

LuFe_2O_4中Fe离子的几何阻挫导致了复杂的电荷和磁序以及强的磁电耦合。利用Fe K边缘的共振X射线衍射,从(h/3 k/3 l/2)反射推导出两个Fe位的异常散射因子。两种类型的Fe离子之间的化学位移等于4.0(1)eV,对应于完全电荷分离成Fe 2+和Fe 3+。超晶格反射的偏振和方位角依赖性表明没有各向异性散射,揭示轨道玻璃态特征的Fe 2+轨道的随机取向。

英文摘要:

Geometrical frustration of the Fe ions in LuFe2O4 leads to intricate charge and magnetic order and a strong magnetoelectric coupling. Using resonant x-ray diffraction at the Fe K edge, the anomalous scattering factors of both Fe sites are deduced from the (h/3 k/3 l/2) reflections. The chemical shift between the two types of Fe ions equals 4.0(1) eV corresponding to full charge separation into Fe2+ and Fe3+. Polarization and azimuthal angle dependence of the superlattice reflections demonstrates the absence of anisotropic scattering revealing random orientations of the Fe2+ orbitals characteristic of an orbital glass state.
