摘要:

用X射线衍射和磁测量方法研究了Y_(1-x)Er_xFe_2金属间化合物及其氘化物Y_(1-x)Er_xFe_2 H(D)_(4.2)在60 T静磁场和脉冲磁场下的结构和磁性。金属间化合物以C15立方结构结晶,而相应的氘和氘化物以单斜结构结晶。所有的化合物显示出的单位细胞体积与Er浓度的线性下降,具有相同的Er含量的氘化物相比,具有0.8%的更大的细胞体积。它们在低场和温度下具有亚铁磁性,金属间化合物的补偿点为x = 0.33,氢化物和氘化物的补偿点为x = 0.57。一个尖锐的一阶铁磁-反铁磁(FM-AFM)的转变时,观察到加热在TFM-AFM的氘和氘。这些化合物表现出两种不同类型的场致跃迁,它们具有不同的物理起源。在低温下(T < 50 K),观察到了Btrans 1 = 8 T的亚铁-铁磁变磁强制相变,这与Er磁矩取向由反平行变为平行Fe磁矩有关。Btrans 1对Er浓度、温度和同位素效应不敏感。还观察到由反铁磁态到亚铁磁态的第二变磁转变。过渡场Btrans 2随温度线性增加,并涉及到巡回电子的Fe亚晶格的变磁行为。通过在零场下外推TFM-AFM(B)获得起始温度TM 0。TM 0随Er含量线性降低,并且与相应的氘化物相比,对于Er,TM 0高45(5)K。TM 0与细胞体积的演变表明,它不能完全归因于一个纯粹的体积效应,电子效应也应考虑。

英文摘要:

The structural and magnetic properties of Y1-xErxFe2 intermetallic compounds and their hydrides and deuterides Y1-xErxFe2H(D)4.2 have been investigated using X-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements under static and pulsed magnetic field up to 60 T. The intermetallics crystallize in the C15 cubic structure , whereas corresponding hydrides and deuterides crystallize in a monoclinic structure. All compounds display a linear decrease of the unit cell volume versus Er concentration; the hydrides have a 0.8% larger cell volume compared to the deuterides with same Er content. They are ferrimagnetic at low field and temperature with a compensation point at x = 0.33 for the intermetallics and x = 0.57 for the hydrides and deuterides. A sharp first order ferromagnetic-antiferromagnetic (FM-AFM) transition is observed upon heating at TFM-AFM for both hydrides and deuterides. These compounds show two different types of field induced transitions, which have different physical origin. At low temperature (T < 50 K), a forced ferri-ferromagnetic metamagnetic transition with Btrans1 = 8 T, related to the change of the Er moments orientation from antiparallel to parallel Fe moment, is observed. Btrans1 is not sensitive to Er concentration, temperature and isotope effect. A second metamagnetic transition resulting from antiferromagnetic to ferrimagnetic state is also observed. The transition field Btrans2 increases linearly versus temperature and relates to the itinerant electron metamagnetic behavior of the Fe sublattice. An onset temperature TM0 is obtained by extrapolating TFM-AFM (B) at zero field. TM0 decreases linearly versus the Er content and is 45(5) K higher for the hydrides compared to the corresponding deuteride. The evolution of TM0 versus cell volume shows that it cannot be attributed exclusively to a pure volume effect and that electronic effects should also be considered.
