摘要:

利用单晶样品的Raman光谱和X射线衍射研究了钛酸锶SrTiO_3(STO)压温相图中立方到四方相变。在室温、381和467 K下分别在53 GPa、30 GPa和26 GPa下进行了X射线衍射实验。在X-射线图案的超结构反射的观察提供的证据表明,晶体在所有研究的温度下经历的压力诱导的过渡从立方相到tetraxyl 4/mcm相,相同的低温相。在室温至53 GPa的压力范围内没有观察到其它相变。与以前公布的数据,我们的研究结果使我们能够提出一个新的线性相边界的压力-温度相图。在朗道相变理论的框架内对数据进行了分析。通过对序参量和体自发应变之间的耦合系数进行修正,建立的压力无关系数模型能较好地再现相图中的边界,但不能反映压力诱导相变比温度诱导相变更明显的二阶特征.我们提出了一个新的Landau势,它适合于描述压力诱导的相变。最后,我们表明,特别要注意的流体静力学条件下的高压相变STO的研究。

英文摘要:

We investigate the cubic to tetragonal phase transition in the pressure-temperature phase diagram of strontium titanate SrTiO3 (STO) by means of Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction on single crystal samples. X-ray diffraction experiments are performed at room temperature, 381 and 467 K up to 53 GPa, 30 GPa and 26 GPa respectively. The observation of the superstructure reflections in the X-ray patterns provides evidence that the crystal undergoes at all investigated temperatures a pressure-induced transition from cubic to the tetragonal I4/mcm phase, identical to the low-temperature phase. No other phase transition is observed at room temperature up to 53 GPa. Together with previously published data, our results allow us to propose a new linear phase boundary in the pressure-temperature phase diagram. The data are analyzed in the framework of the Landau theory of phase transitions. With a revised value of the coupling coefficient between the order parameter and the volume spontaneous strain, the model built from pressure-independent coefficients reproduces satisfactorily the boundary in the phase diagram, but fails at reflecting the more pronounced second-order character of the pressure-induced phase transition as compared to the temperature-induced transition. We propose a new Landau potential suitable for the description of the pressure-induced phase transition. Finally, we show that particular attention has to be paid to hydrostatic conditions in the study of the high-pressure phase transition in STO.
