摘要:

新发现的Ising型铁磁体CeRu $_2$ Al $_2$ B在进入$T_\textrm{C}$ = 12.8 K的铁磁基态之前,在$T_\textrm{N}$ = 14.2 K时表现出额外的相变。我们通过高分辨率的中子衍射测量澄清这种转变的性质。结果表明,在$T_\textrm{C}<T<T_\textrm{N}$的温度范围内,存在纵向无公度自旋密度波(SDW).传播矢量${\bf q} \sim (0,0,0.148)$在该区域几乎与温度无关,并且在$T_\textrm{C}$处不连续地锁定到${\bf q} = 0$中。平均场计算的有效伊辛模型表明,调制SDW相稳定铁磁和反铁磁交换相互作用之间的强烈竞争。这使得CeRu $_2$ Al $_2$ B成为研究铁磁重费米子金属在磁阻挫影响下的全局相图的特别有吸引力的模型系统。

英文摘要:

The newly discovered Ising-type ferromagnet CeRu$_2$Al$_2$B exhibits an additional phase transition at $T_\textrm{N}$ = 14.2 K before entering the ferromagnetic ground state at $T_\textrm{C}$ = 12.8 K. We clarify the nature of this transition through high resolution neutron diffraction measurements. The data reveal the presence of a longitudinal incommensurate spin-density wave (SDW) in the temperature range of $T_\textrm{C}<T<T_\textrm{N}$. The propagation vector ${\bf q} \sim (0,0,0.148)$ is nearly temperature independent in this region and discontinuously locks into ${\bf q} = 0$ at $T_\textrm{C}$. Mean-field calculations of an effective Ising model indicate that the modulated SDW phase is stabilized by a strong competition between ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic exchange interactions. This makes CeRu$_2$Al$_2$B a particularly attractive model system to study the global phase diagram of ferromagnetic heavy-fermion metals under influence of magnetic frustration.
