SrRuO $_3$中的位稀释:对结构和磁性的影响

Site dilution in SrRuO$_3$: Effects on structural and magnetic properties

Renu Gupta, A K Pramanik

摘要:

我们研究了SrRu $_{1-x}$ Ti $_x$ O $_3$($x$ $\leq$ 0.7)中掺杂元素的位稀释效应。SrRuO $_3$的铁磁态性质为巡游型,转变温度$T_c$ 162 K。在晶体学上,SrRuO $_3$具有扭曲的正交结构。然而,用Ti $^{+4}$(3 $d^0$)取代Ru $^{+4}$(4 $d^4$),由于它们匹配的离子半径,不会引入显著的结构修饰。另一方面,这种取代有望调节系统中的电子相关效应和$d$电子密度。结果表明,Ti取代后,磁矩和居里温度降低,但$T_c$保持不变,这是由于在巡游铁磁性的框架内,电子关联效应和态密度发生了相反的调谐。估计临界指数($β$)相关的磁化意味着平均场类型的磁性在SrRuO $_3$。$β$的值随着$x$的增加而进一步增加,这是从磁晶格的稀释效应理解的。系统在$T_c$以上表现出类似Griffiths相的行为,这通常是在稀释铁磁体中实现的。详细分析了SrRuO $_3$的磁化强度数据,发现其磁态既有巡游磁模型的贡献,也有局域磁矩模型的贡献。

英文摘要:

We have investigated the effect of site dilution with substitution of nonmagnetic element in SrRu$_{1-x}$Ti$_x$O$_3$ ($x$ $\leq$ 0.7). The nature of ferromagnetic state in SrRuO$_3$ is believed to be of itinerant type with transition temperature $T_c$ $\sim$ 162 K. Crystallographically, SrRuO$_3$ has a distorted orthorhombic structure. Substitution of Ti$^{+4}$ (3$d^0$) for Ru$^{+4}$ (4$d^4$), however, does not introduce significant structural modification due to their matching ionic radii. This substitution, on the other hand, is expected to tune the electronic correlation effect and the $d$ electron density in system. With Ti substitution, we find that magnetic moment and Curie temperature decreases but $T_c$ remains unchanged which has been attributed to opposite tuning of electron correlation effect and density of states within framework of itinerant ferromagnetism. The estimated critical exponent ($β$) related to magnetization implies a mean-field type of magnetic nature in SrRuO$_3$. The value of $β$ further increases with $x$ which is understood from the dilution effect of magnetic lattice. The system evolves to exhibit Griffiths phase like behavior above $T_c$ which is usually realized in diluted ferromagnet following local moment model of magnetism. Our detail analysis of magnetization data indicates that magnetic state in SrRuO$_3$ has contribution from both itinerant and local moment model of magnetism.
