摘要:

本文报道了非超导铁硫族化合物母体化合物的合成,用自熔剂法制备了FeTe单晶。FeTe单晶为四方晶系,空间群为P4/nmm。详细的SEM(扫描电子显微镜)结果表明,晶体形成的板状形态,并接近(轻微不足的Te)化学计量与均匀分布的Fe和Te。在电阻率和磁化强度测量中,在大约70 K处观察到耦合的结构和磁性相变,其在性质上具有冷却和加热循环(deltaT = 5 K)。磁化率(Chi-T)的测量结果表明,磁性转变是反铁磁性的性质,这是证实了等温磁化强度(M-H)图以及。在10 kOe的电场中,在面内和面外两个方向上测量的随温度变化的电阻率表明,对于所研究的FeTe单晶,当Δ T = 10 K时,其电阻率宽度几乎变为原来的两倍,并且在面外磁场方向上电阻率宽度最大。由于结构和磁序相变的耦合,我们还在热容Cp(T)测量中得到了一个尖锐的尖峰。

英文摘要:

We report synthesis of non superconducting parent compound of iron chalcogenide, i.e., FeTe single crystal by self flux method. The FeTe single crystal is crystallized in tetragonal structure with the P4/nmm space group. The detailed SEM (scanning electron microscopy) results showed that the crystals are formed in slab like morphology and are near (slight deficiency of Te) stoichiometric with homogenous distribution of Fe and Te. The coupled structural and magnetic phase transition is seen at around 70K in both electrical resistivity and magnetization measurements, which is hysteric (deltaT = 5K) in nature with cooling and warming cycles. Magnetic susceptibility (chi-T) measurements showed the magnetic transition to be of antiferromagnetic nature, which is substantiated by isothermal magnetization (M-H) plots as well. The temperature dependent electrical resistivity measured in 10kOe field in both in plane and out of plane field directions showed that the hysteric width nearly becomes double to deltaT = 10K, and is maximum for the out of plane field direction for the studied FeTe single crystal. We also obtained a sharp spike like peak in heat capacity Cp(T) measurement due to the coupled structural and magnetic order phase transitions.
