摘要:

磁结构赋予TbMnO $_3$与其多铁性的基础上,全面的软X射线共振散射(XRS)研究已重新评估。XRS的选择性促进了各种贡献的分离(Mn $L_2$边缘,Mn 3d矩; Tb M $_4$边缘,Tb 4f矩),而其随方位角的变化提供了不同傅立叶分量的矩方向的信息。当数据与详细的群论分析相结合时,28 K下的铁电转变出现了新的图像。而不是被驱动的从共线到非共线的磁结构的过渡,如先前所假设的,它示出发生在两个非共线结构之间。

英文摘要:

The magnetic structures which endow TbMnO$_3$ with its multiferroic properties have been reassessed on the basis of a comprehensive soft x-ray resonant scattering (XRS) study. The selectivity of XRS facilitated separation of the various contributions (Mn $L_2$ edge, Mn 3d moments; Tb M$_4$ edge, Tb 4f moments), while its variation with azimuth provided information on the moment direction of distinct Fourier components. When the data are combined with a detailed group theory analysis, a new picture emerges of the ferroelectric transition at 28 K. Instead of being driven by the transition from a collinear to a non-collinear magnetic structure, as has previously been supposed, it is shown to occur between two non-collinear structures.
