摘要:

本文报道了尖晶石型化合物$_x$ [Mn $_{1.96}$ Li $_{0.04}$ ]O $_4$(x= 0.2,0.6,0.8,1.0)中磁激发的中子散射结果。我们发现,T ~ 70 K以下的主要激发是由Mn^4+离子团簇决定的,并且这些激发模拟了在量子临界系统中发现的E/T标度,这些系统也包含磁性团簇,如CeRu $_{0.5}$ Fe $_{1.5}$ Ge $_2$。我们认为,我们的研究结果表明,这种经典的尖晶石化合物在低温下观察到的量子临界系统中的不寻常的响应是(至少)部分的结果的磁晶格的碎片成更小的单位。量子临界系统中的这种碎裂是内在无序的直接和不可避免的结果。

英文摘要:

We present neutron scattering results on the magnetic excitations in the spinel compounds Li$_x$[Mn$_{1.96}$Li$_{0.04}$]O$_4$ (x= 0.2, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0). We show that the dominant excitations below T ~ 70 K are determined by clusters of Mn^4+ ions, and that these excitations mimic the E/T-scaling found in quantum critical systems that also harbor magnetic clusters, such as CeRu$_{0.5}$Fe$_{1.5}$Ge$_2$. We argue that our results for this classical spinel compound show that the unusual response at low temperatures as observed in quantum critical systems is (at least) partially the result of the fragmentation of the magnetic lattice into smaller units. This fragmentation in quantum critical systems is the direct and unavoidable result of intrinsic disorder.
