摘要:

我们提出了一个全面的研究在${\bf q}=(π,0)$在共振非弹性X射线散射(RIXS)实验$\rm La_2CuO_4$上观察到的500 meV峰的温度和掺杂的依赖性。该峰的强度在Néel温度(T $_{N}$ =320 K)以上持续存在,但随着温度的升高而逐渐减小,在T=500 K左右达到零。峰能量随温度的降低与$\rm La_2CuO_4$中的双磁振子$\rm B_{1g}$拉曼峰的行为密切相关,并且在适当的重新标度下,与$\rm EuBa_2Cu_3O_6$和$\rm K_2NiF_4$中的拉曼峰位移一致。在布里渊区的这种激发的整体色散被认为是在协议与理论计算的两个磁振子激发。掺杂后,峰值强度下降类似于拉曼模式的强度,并出现跟踪自旋相关长度的掺杂依赖性。总之,这些观察结果强烈表明,500 meV模式是磁性的,很可能是一个两个磁振子激发。

英文摘要:

We present a comprehensive study of the temperature and doping dependence of the 500 meV peak observed at ${\bf q}=(π,0)$ in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments on $\rm La_2CuO_4$. The intensity of this peak persists above the Néel temperature (T$_{N}$=320 K), but decreases gradually with increasing temperature, reaching zero at around T=500 K. The peak energy decreases with temperature in close quantitative accord with the behavior of the two-magnon $\rm B_{1g}$ Raman peak in $\rm La_2CuO_4$, and with suitable rescaling, agrees with the Raman peak shifts in $\rm EuBa_2Cu_3O_6$ and $\rm K_2NiF_4$. The overall dispersion of this excitation in the Brillouin zone is found to be in agreement with theoretical calculations for a two-magnon excitation. Upon doping, the peak intensity decreases analogous to the Raman mode intensity and appears to track the doping dependence of the spin correlation length. Taken together, these observations strongly suggest that the 500 meV mode is magnetic in character and is likely a two-magnon excitation.
