摘要:

对低维自旋为1/2的化合物TiOCl进行了正交相电子结构计算,发现其结构是准一维的。Ti 3+(d1)离子具有一个t2 g占据轨道(dyz),沿着晶体的b方向具有大的跳跃积分。最重要的磁耦合是沿b轴的Ti-Ti。转变温度(Tc)与压力呈线性关系,在约10 GPa时,Tc接近室温,导致室温下的自旋-Peierls绝缘体-绝缘体转变,电荷间隙显著减小,与实验结果一致。在高压单斜相上,TiOCl呈现两种可能的二聚化结构,具有长或短的二聚化。在15 GPa以上出现长二聚态,在此压力以下,短二聚态结构是更稳定的相。

英文摘要:

Electronic structure calculations on the low dimensional spin-1/2 compound TiOCl were performed at several pressures in the orthorhombic phase, finding that the structure is quasi-one-dimensional. The Ti3+ (d1) ions have one t2g orbital occupied (dyz) with a large hopping integral along the b direction of the crystal. The most important magnetic coupling is Ti-Ti along the b axis. The transition temperature (Tc) has a linear evolution with pressure, and at about 10 GPa this Tc is close to room temperature, leading to a room temperature spin-Peierls insulator-insulator transition, with an important reduction of the charge gap in agreement with the experiment. On the high-pressure monoclinic phase, TiOCl presents two possible dimerized structures, with a long or short dimerization. Long dimerized state occurs above 15 GPa, and below this pressure the short dimerized structure is the more stable phase.
