摘要:

根据几个方向性磁康普顿剖面,在12 K和300 K下,重建了磁铁矿中自旋未补偿的二维动量密度分布$ρ_{\rm s}^{2D}({\bf p})$ s。机械去孪晶用于克服单晶样品中低于Verwey转变的严重孪晶。第一布里渊区的重构$ρ_{\rm s}^{2D}({\bf p})$从300 K的负向变为12 K的正向。这一结果提供了第一个明确的证据,在磁铁矿的少数自旋带的低动量的电子是本地化低于Verwey转变温度。

英文摘要:

Two-dimensional spin-uncompensated momentum density distributions, $ρ_{\rm s}^{2D}({\bf p})$s, were reconstructed in magnetite at 12K and 300K from several measured directional magnetic Compton profiles. Mechanical de-twinning was used to overcome severe twinning in the single crystal sample below the Verwey transition. The reconstructed $ρ_{\rm s}^{2D}({\bf p})$ in the first Brillouin zone changes from being negative at 300 K to positive at 12 K. This result provides the first clear evidence that electrons with low momenta in the minority spin bands in magnetite are localized below the Verwey transition temperature.
