通过测量磁化强度确定熵:应用于自旋冰Dy2Ti2O7

Determination of the Entropy via Measurement of the Magnetization: Application to the Spin ice Dy2Ti2O7

L. Bovo, S. T. Bramwell

摘要:

自旋冰和其他受抑磁体的剩余熵是一个相当有趣的性质,然而通常通过积分热容来确定它的方法通常是模糊的。在这里,我们注意到,一个简单的替代方法的基础上麦克斯韦的热力学关系可以产生的剩余熵的绝对规模。该方法仅利用磁化测量,因此是量热法的有用替代方法。我们确认,它的自旋冰,Dy2Ti2O7,推荐其应用到其他系统的工作。这里描述的分析还提供了一个洞察熵的依赖磁矩,这在自旋冰的磁单极子理论中起着重要作用。最后,我们提出的证据,从相关的自旋冰的行为,普通的顺磁行为与外加磁场的增加,作为信号的有效居里常数的变化场诱导的交叉。

英文摘要:

The residual entropy of spin ice and other frustrated magnets is a property of considerable interest, yet the usual way of determining it, by integrating the heat capacity, is generally ambiguous. Here we note that a straightforward alternative method based on Maxwell's thermodynamic relations can yield the residual entropy on an absolute scale. The method utilises magnetization measurements only and hence is a useful alternative to calorimetry. We confirm that it works for spin ice, Dy2Ti2O7, which recommends its application to other systems. The analysis described here also gives an insight into the dependence of entropy on magnetic moment, which plays an important role in the theory of magnetic monopoles in spin ice. Finally, we present evidence of a field-induced crossover from correlated spin ice behaviour to ordinary paramagnetic behaviour with increasing applied field, as signalled by a change in the effective Curie constant.
