摘要:

全面的μ子自旋旋转/弛豫(muSR)和中子粉末衍射(NPD)的研究支持通过批量测量已进行了有序的双钙钛矿Sr 2 YbRuO 6调查的磁性基态的性质。在静态和动态磁化强度测量中观察到在TN 1 ~ 42 K和TN 2 ~ 36 K的两个急剧转变,与热容数据相吻合。为了证实所观察到的相变和磁基态的起源,本文提出了微观证据。长程磁有序的初始指示来自于μ子初始不对称性的急剧下降和TN 1附近弛豫速率的峰值。NPD证实了Sr_2YbRuO_6的磁性基态由反铁磁(AFM)结构组成,其晶格中Yb ~(3+)和Ru ~(5+)的磁矩在ab平面上相互平行,并具有A型AFM结构。有趣的是,一个小的,但显着的变化,观察到在TN 2的长程有序参数确认存在一个弱的自旋重取向(即自旋配置的变化)过渡的Ru和Yb的时刻,以及在磁矩演变的Yb 3+自旋在TN 2的变化。Yb 3+和Ru 5+磁矩的温度依赖行为表明,Ru 5+的4d电子在稳定双钙钛矿Sr 2 YbRuO 6中的长程有序磁基态中起主导作用,而只有Yb 3+磁矩在TN 2处表现出停滞。所观察到的磁性结构和Ru-和Yb-离子之间的铁磁相互作用的存在下解释与使用古德诺-Kanamori-安德森(GKA)规则。第二磁相变和磁化数据中的补偿点的存在的可能原因与磁各向异性的竞争机制有关。

英文摘要:

Comprehensive muon spin rotation/relaxation (muSR) and neutron powder diffraction (NPD) studies supported via bulk measurements have been performed on the ordered double perovskite Sr2YbRuO6 to investigate the nature of the magnetic ground state. Two sharp transitions at TN1 ~ 42 K and TN2 ~ 36 K have been observed in the static and dynamic magnetization measurements, coinciding with the heat capacity data. In order to confirm the origin of the observed phase transitions and the magnetic ground state, microscopic evidences are presented here. An initial indication of long-range magnetic ordering comes from a sharp drop in the muon initial asymmetry and a peak in the relaxation rate near TN1. NPD confirms that the magnetic ground state of Sr2YbRuO6 consists of an antiferromagnetic (AFM) structure with interpenetrating lattices of parallel Yb3+ and Ru5+ moments lying in the ab-plane and adopting a A-type AFM structure. Intriguingly, a small but remarkable change is observed in the long-range ordering parameters at TN2 confirming the presence of a weak spin reorientation (i.e. change in spin configuration) transition of Ru and Yb moments, as well as a change in the magnetic moment evolution of the Yb3+ spins at TN2. The temperature dependent behaviour of the Yb3+ and Ru5+ moments suggests that the 4d-electrons of Ru5+ play a dominating role in stabilizing the long range ordered magnetic ground state in the double perovskite Sr2YbRuO6 whereas only the Yb3+ moments show an arrest at TN2. The observed magnetic structure and the presence of a ferromagnetic interaction between Ru- and Yb- ions are explained with use of the Goodenough-Kanamori-Anderson (GKA) rules. Possible reasons for the presence of the second magnetic phase transition and of a compensation point in the magnetization data are linked to competing mechanisms of magnetic anisotropy.
