摘要:

用弹性中子散射研究了SrFe $_2$ As $_2$单晶的结构相变和磁相变,结果表明:在$T_\texttt{O}$ = $T_\texttt{N}$ =(201.5 $\pm$ 0.25)K时,(O)-四元(T)和反铁磁相变是一致的.在一定温度范围内观察到的O-T相共存和O畸变的突然发生,为结构转变是一级转变提供了强有力的证据。同时出现和消失在0.5 K内冷却后和0.25 K内升温后,分别表明,磁性和结构的转变是密切耦合的。我们发现,在转变温度的滞后延伸超过1-2 K的范围。基于在高于\emph{T} $_\texttt{O}$的温度下观察到的残余正交相,我们认为T-O转变可能是有序-无序转变。

英文摘要:

A detailed elastic neutron scattering study of the structural and magnetic phase transitions in single-crystal SrFe$_2$As$_2$ reveals that the orthorhombic (O)-tetragonal (T) and the antiferromagnetic transitions coincide at $T_\texttt{O}$ = $T_\texttt{N}$ = (201.5 $\pm$ 0.25) K. The observation of coexisting O-T phases over a finite temperature range at the transition and the sudden onset of the O distortion provide strong evidences that the structural transition is first order. The simultaneous appearance and disappearance within 0.5 K upon cooling and within 0.25 K upon warming, respectively, indicate that the magnetic and structural transitions are intimately coupled. We find that the hysteresis in the transition temperature extends over a 1-2 K range. Based on the observation of a remnant orthorhombic phase at temperatures higher than \emph{T}$_\texttt{O}$, we suggest that the T-O transition may be an order-disorder transition.
