摘要:

利用共振弹性X射线散射(REXS)方法研究了外尔半金属EuCd $_2Pn_2$($Pn$ =As,Sb)中Eu $^{2+}$ $M_5$边缘的磁关联. EuCd $_2$ As $_2$的漫散射的温度和场依赖性提供了直接的证据,即Eu磁矩表现出慢铁磁相关性远高于Néel温度。相比之下,在顺磁相的同构EuCd $_2$ Sb $_2$的漫散射至少弱一个数量级。在EuCd $_2$ As $_2$的顺磁相中存在的FM相关可以产生短寿命的Weyl节点。

英文摘要:

We have investigated the magnetic correlations in the candidate Weyl semimetals EuCd$_2Pn_2$, ($Pn$=As, Sb) by resonant elastic X-ray scattering (REXS) at the Eu$^{2+}$ $M_5$ edge. The temperature and field dependence of the diffuse scattering of EuCd$_2$As$_2$ provide direct evidence that the Eu moments exhibit slow ferromagnetic correlations well above the Néel temperature. By contrast, the diffuse scattering in the paramagnetic phase of isostructural EuCd$_2$Sb$_2$ is at least an order of magnitude weaker. The FM correlations present in the paramagnetic phase of EuCd$_2$As$_2$ could create short-lived Weyl nodes.
