摘要:

本文用Co $2p3d$共振非弹性X射线散射(RIXS)研究了混合价氧化物Co $_3$ O $_4$。通过在Co $^{2+}$和Co $^{3+}$离子上设置共振边,选择性地探测了两个Co位上的$dd$激发,提供了Co $_3$ O $_4$的局部电子结构的详细信息. $2p3d$ RIXS结果显示四面体Co $^{2+}$位点的$^4$ T $_{2}$激发态在0.5 eV处,超出光学吸收光谱的辨别能力。此外,在1.3 eV处激发态的$^3$ T $_{2g}$被唯一地鉴定为八面体Co $^{3+}$位点。在多重态模拟的指导下,确定Co $^{2+}$和Co $^{3+}$的基态特征分别为高自旋$^4$ A $_{2}$(T $_d$)和低自旋$^1$ A $_{1g}$(O $_h$).这表明Co $^{2+}$位在低温下是Co $_3$ O $_4$中的磁活性位。配体-金属电荷转移分析表明,在Co $^{3+}$位点处Co和O离子之间形成强共价键,而Co $^{2+}$是离子型的。

英文摘要:

We investigate mixed-valence oxide Co$_3$O$_4$ using Co $2p3d$ resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS). By setting resonant edges at Co$^{2+}$ and Co$^{3+}$ ions, the $dd$ excitations on the two Co sites are probed selectively, providing detailed information on the local electronic structure of Co$_3$O$_4$. The $2p3d$ RIXS result reveals the $^4$T$_{2}$ excited state of tetrahedral Co$^{2+}$ site at 0.5 eV beyond the discriminative power of optical absorption spectroscopies. Additionally, the $^3$T$_{2g}$ excited stated at 1.3 eV is uniquely identified for the octahedral Co$^{3+}$ site. Guided by cluster multiplet simulations, the ground-state character of the Co$^{2+}$ and Co$^{3+}$ site is determined to be high-spin $^4$A$_{2}$(T$_d$) and low-spin $^1$A$_{1g}$(O$_h$), respectively. This indicates that only the Co$^{2+}$ site is magnetically active site at low-temperatures in Co$_3$O$_4$. The ligand-to-metal charge transfer analysis suggests a formation of a strong covalent bonding between Co and O ions at the Co$^{3+}$ site, while Co$^{2+}$ is rather ionic.
