摘要:

过渡金属基氧化物YBaCo 3FeO 7在结构上与矿物Swedenborohydrates SbNaBe 4 O 7相关,后者是一种极性非中心对称的晶体系统。磁性Co 3Fe亚晶格由一个四面体网络包含kagome样层与三角形层间网站。这种几何形状会导致磁有序的挫折效应,这是由磁化测量,穆斯堡尔谱,极化中子衍射和中子能谱研究。磁化强度测量和中子衍射没有显示出长程有序,即使在低温(1 K),虽然一个强的反铁磁耦合(~2000 K)推导出的磁化率。低于590 K,我们观察到两个功能,一个自发的弱各向异性磁化滞后沿极晶轴和超精细场上的Fe kagome网站,而层间网站上的Fe自旋保持空闲。低于~50 K,超精细场的发生显示了穆斯堡尔时间尺度上的静止时刻的发展,也为Fe层间网站。同时,极化中子衍射发现自旋关联增加。用高分辨中子能谱进一步研究了动态响应的弛豫部分,发现自旋关联在低于~50 K时开始冻结。蒙特卡罗模拟表明,在较低的温度下的中子散射的结果是相容的,最近的建议,特别是在Swedenborn结构的几何挫折促进准一维偏序。

英文摘要:

The transition metal based oxide YBaCo3FeO7 is structurally related to the mineral Swedenborgite SbNaBe4O7, a polar non-centrosymmetric crystal system. The magnetic Co3Fe sublattice consists of a tetrahedral network containing kagome-like layers with trigonal interlayer sites. This geometry causes frustration effects for magnetic ordering, which were investigated by magnetization measurements, Mössbauer spectroscopy, polarized neutron diffraction, and neutron spectroscopy. Magnetization measurement and neutron diffraction do not show long range ordering even at low temperature (1 K) although a strong antiferromagnetic coupling (~2000 K) is deduced from the magnetic susceptibility. Below 590 K, we observe two features, a spontaneous weak anisotropic magnetization hysteresis along the polar crystallographic axis and a hyperfine field on the Fe kagome sites, whereas the Fe spins on the interlayer sites remain idle. Below ~50 K, the onset of a hyperfine field shows the development of moments static on the Mössbauer time scale also for the Fe interlayer sites. Simultaneously, an increase of spin correlations is found by polarized neutron diffraction. The relaxation part of the dynamic response has been further investigated by high-resolution neutron spectroscopy, which reveals that the spin correlations start to freeze in below ~50 K. Monte Carlo simulations show that the neutron scattering results at lower temperatures are compatible with a recent proposal that the particular geometric frustration in the Swedenborgite structure promotes quasi one dimensional partial order.
