摘要:

本文详细研究了填充方钴矿La_(1-x)R_xPt_4Ge_(12)(R= Gd,Eu)中S态离子Gd ~(3+)和Eu ~(2+)的自旋动力学。利用Gd ~(3+)和Eu ~(2+)的电子自旋共振(ESR)技术,分别在8<T<300 K和1.5<T<300 K的温度区间内,在X波段(~ 9.4 GHz)和Q波段(~ 34 GHz)进行了自旋动力学的直接研究。ESR参数为Gd ~(3+)离子的振动行为提供了直接证据,但对Eu ~(2+)离子的振动行为没有直接的证据。这些结果解释了最近的讨论中笼系统的自旋弛豫。特别地,在La0.9Gd0.1Pt4Ge12中的Gd ~(3+)自旋弛豫为该系统中存在爱因斯坦温度(θ E)~ 24 K的额外声子模提供了证据.这项工作表明,所谓的“摇铃”模式有一个普遍的和重要的作用,应考虑在笼系统的自旋动力学的研究。

英文摘要:

A detailed study of the spin dynamics of the S-state ions Gd3+ and Eu2+ in the filled skutterudites La1-xRxPt4Ge12 (R= Gd, Eu) is reported. The spin dynamics is investigated directly by means of Gd3+ and Eu2+ electron spin resonance (ESR), performed at X-band (~ 9.4 GHz) and Q-band (~ 34 GHz) frequencies in the temperature intervals 8<T<300 K and 1.5<T<300 K respectively. The ESR parameters provide direct evidence for the vibrational behavior of the Gd3+ ions but not for the Eu2+ ions. These results are interpreted in the light of recent discussions about the spin relaxation in cage systems. In particular, the Gd3+ spin relaxation in La0.9Gd0.1Pt4Ge12 provide evidence for the existence of an extra phonon mode with an Einstein temperature (thetaE) ~ 24 K in this system. The work suggests that the so-called "rattling" modes have a general and important role that should be taken into account in the study of spin dynamics in cage systems.
