摘要:

V_2O_3是研究关联诱导的Mott-Hubbard金属-绝缘体相变的典型体系。尽管经过几十年的广泛研究,其电子性质的准确描述仍然是强关联材料物理学中的一个悬而未决的问题,这也是因为缺乏关于其整个相图电子结构的详细实验数据。本文采用高分辨X射线吸收光谱研究了(V(1-x)Crx)2 O3的V-K边,探讨了其电子结构随温度、掺杂和压力的变化,提供了整个相图中电子结构变化的精确图像。我们还讨论了晶格参数的平行演变的相关性,确定与X射线衍射。这使我们能够得出两个普遍感兴趣的结论:第一,压力下的过渡呈现出特殊的性质,与晶格和电子结构的更连续的演化有关;第二,晶格失配是描述一阶过渡强度的一个很好的参数,因此与系统的不同相共存的趋势有关。我们的研究结果表明,电子结构的演变,而接近相变,而不仅仅是在穿越它,也是一个关键因素,揭示了莫特材料的基本物理机制。

英文摘要:

V2O3 is an archetypal system for the study of correlation induced, Mott-Hubbard metal-insulator transitions. Despite decades of extensive investigations, the accurate description of its electronic properties remains an open problem in the physics of strongly correlated materials, also because of the lack of detailed experimental data on its electronic structure over the whole phase diagram. We present here a high resolution X-ray absorption spectroscopy study at the V K-edge of (V(1-x)Crx)2O3 to probe its electronic structure as a function of temperature, doping and pressure, providing an accurate picture of the electronic changes over the whole phase diagram. We also discuss the relevance of the parallel evolution of the lattice parameters, determined with X-ray diffraction. This allows us to draw two conclusions of general interest: first, the transition under pressure presents peculiar properties, related to a more continuous evolution of the lattice and electronic structure; second, the lattice mismatch is a good parameter describing the strength of the first order transition, and is consequently related to the tendency of the system towards the coexistence of different phases. Our results show that the evolution of the electronic structure while approaching a phase transition, and not only while crossing it, is also a key element to unveil the underlying physical mechanisms of Mott materials .
