摘要:

我们报告的中子散射实验探测单轴应变的影响,在母体铁磷属元素化合物,BaFe $_2$作为$_2$的磁性和结构序参量。我们的数据表明,适度的应变场沿面内正交b轴可以影响显着的变化,同时消除结构孪生效应的相行为。因此,我们证明在BaFe $_2$作为$_2$样品通过单轴应变解孪晶,在平面C $_4$对称性被打破的\textit{both}的结构晶格畸变\textit{and}远程自旋有序的温度远高于标称(无应变),相变温度。在相对较小的应变场下,该系统的磁序参数的惊人变化也表明在该材料中的无应变有序温度之上波动的磁畴的固有存在。

英文摘要:

We report neutron scattering experiments probing the influence of uniaxial strain on both the magnetic and structural order parameters in the parent iron pnictide compound, BaFe$_2$As$_2$. Our data show that modest strain fields along the in-plane orthorhombic b-axis can affect significant changes in phase behavior simultaneous to the removal of structural twinning effects. As a result, we demonstrate in BaFe$_2$As$_2$ samples detwinned via uniaxial strain that the in-plane C$_4$ symmetry is broken by \textit{both} the structural lattice distortion \textit{and} long-range spin ordering at temperatures far above the nominal (strain-free), phase transition temperatures. Surprising changes in the magnetic order parameter of this system under relatively small strain fields also suggest the inherent presence of magnetic domains fluctuating above the strain-free ordering temperature in this material.
